I'm throwing a holiday party and have a great menu (lamb kebabs, bacon wrapped figs, deviled eggs, meat plate, etc.) I'll have a cheese plate and fresh veggies, but I need one substantial finger food option for the vegetarian invitees. Any ideas?
Have had some arguments about what the veins are that run down the back and/or under sides of shrimp. What are they exactly? Do you need to take them out? Is it gross to eat them?
Bellavitae. Delicious food aside, the servers there are smart, often actually Italian and really know they're stuff. They aren't afraid to tell you what's best that day and their wine recs are spot on. 24 Minetta Lane.
As a native of Baltimore and a passionate O's fan, I just want to say that any person who goes to the ballpark to get a crab cake in B'more is an idiot. If you want to get the true Oriole Park feel, hit up Boog's BBQ inside the Eutaw Street entrance, where you just might get served by one of the greatest first basemen in O's history, Boog Powell. Or grab yourself an Esskay hotdog, the only franks good enough to be endorsed by Baltimore's Iron Man, Cal Ripken Jr. If you want crab cakes, wait until the game is over and go to Obrycki's.
Just made this recipe from Gourmet:

I felt a little strange putting mayo in the oven, but it was super simple and surprisingly delicious.
I didn't mean fill the tub up with water and leave everything in there and then bathe with it. I just meant as a good out of the way place to store used pots and pans so they don't pile up in the kitchen. In small kitchens sometimes sinks are really small, it's nice to use a bigger space if you're cleaning big pots. Sorry to all of you with delicate sensibilities that I may have offended.
Oh Lord. Made this for breakfast today. It's absurdly delicious.
For dishes. Take advantage of your tub. Things tend to pile up and get in the way and make cooking around the mess even harder.
So, if I'm going to pile up lots of dirty pots and pans, I do it in the tub. When it's time to wash, roll up your pants, get in there with 'em, and give the tub a good scrubbing when you're finished.
I second the spices. I brought bags and bags back from Campo Di Fiore. While you're there you should go to Al Forno (or maybe it's just Forno...?). It's a bakery and sandwich place that will absolutely blow your mind.
I think there are prohibitions for bringing back cured meats, but I've heard of a number of folks who have managed to sneak them through customs.
Egg noodles and cottage cheese is my number one comfort food. Throw in butter and the CC when the noodles are warm with salt and lots of pepper.
It's like a no-bake kugel!
Inspired by a side dish at Bellaviate in the West Village. Sauteed Cauliflower, cut very finely, mixed with pine nuts, currants and bread crumbs.
Seems like the peanut butter thing is a common theme. I really love peanut butter and avocado sandwiches.
I eat cottage cheese plain as well. However, it tastes super yummy with tuna. I though it would be terrible, but it's great! It's easy and quick, which is helpful for those of us with pain and fatigue issues. I also like to mix pineapple with my cottage cheese. There is a brand (I can't remember which one, and that tells you how much I like it lol) that already mixes the stuff, and it's gross. Therefore, I just add my own pineapple if I want it.
Danny Meyer made his name--in no small part--by bringing hospitality (a concern for the diner's overall experience) to New York City. I am a huge fan of Gramercy Tavern. (I have also eaten at Union Square and Eleven Madison.)
His book, Setting The Table, tells the story. It's a worthwhile read with a point of view that applies to many businesses.
i love the food and service at jane, on houston at bleecker.
Oops, meant the Italian Beef at Comiskey/Cellular Field or whatever you want to call it. Either way, it's Chicago and for an author who said he grew up here, I can't believe he didn't say anything about it.
Yeah, worldcupfever, no mention of an Italian Beef at Wrigley Field????? Sacrilege! Mmmmm, topped with tons of the hot giardinera....
There is a two-foot long Italian beef at Wrigley Field. TWO FEET!
Oh, and as much as I hate going against bratwurst in the state of Wisconsin, Klement's Italian sausage is my favorite up at Miller Park. Not that there's anything wrong with the brat. Or the polish. Or the hot dog.
After watching the sausages race around the field at Miller Park in Milwaukee, I like a bratwurst covered in Secret Stadium Sauce (which is, I think, ketchup, bbq sauce, mustard, and liquid smoke, but I'm not sure). Anyway, it's heaven.
It seems a shame to interfere with the great American sport of face stuffing by adding the distraction of a baseball game.
The stadium mustard in Cleveland is the best mustard of all the ballparks!
i also forgot... at at&t, they have something called a cha-cha bowl named after hall of famer, Orlando Cepeda... jerk chicken, black bean, rice, and a vareity of salsas. that's really good, so good i made it at home. how many times do you want to cook food that you had at a game?
