Cambridge, MA: Oleana's Incredible Baked Alaska
That looks AMAZING! I'm drooling over here.
I've only had one baked Alaska in my life - from Bern's in Tampa - and it was pretty good. I ordered it for the experience, because it felt like something I should try. This one looks like something I MUST try.
How to Make Heart-Shaped Pizza and Heart-Shaped Pepperoni
YUM! I think I'll do this for the boyfriend. We agreed to have a low-key V-day (poor guy has to contend with my birthday, Valentine's day, and our anniversary within a 10-day span). This is probably significantly better than "low key" but awesome enough that I can't resist.

Haha, I just noticed the Subway odor thing myself - I go by one on my new jogging route. It almost makes me want to stop breathing, mid-run.

Moving to Tampa, is there anything good to eat?

If you're forced to put pineapple on a pizza...

Poll: Cornmeal on Pizza Crust, Way or No Way?
I've had some great cornmeal pizza at pie joints in South Jersey, where I was brought up. It can add a great crunch that contrasts with gooey cheese and thin crust. But that being said, I prefer Neopolitan/New York style pies that would be completely ruined by cornmeal.

Daily Slice: Shorty's Pizza, Tucker, GA
Nice review. I've only been to the Decatur location, and a few years back at that. Maybe I'll have to do a return trip.

Soda: Do You Ever Mix Fanta and Coke?
I know an 11-year-old who mixes approximately 35 sodas from the Coke Freestyle machine into one huge cup, gulps it down, and then doesn't sleep for days. I've tasted her concoction and it ain't pretty. But I've never mixed Fanta and Coke. Maybe I'll try it sometime!
Hot Dog of the Week: El Bohemio in Guayaquil, Ecuador
Awesome write-up. Going to Ecuador in March. Not sure if I'll hit Guayanquil - we'll probably stay in Quito where my boyfriend's family lives - but I'm going to put this on the list in case we do make it there!
Atlanta: Surprisingly Good Burgers, Surprisingly Bad Buns at Park Tavern
Awesome review. Now we know NOT to get the burgers there when we go for ice skating sometime this week. As an aside, they have interesting sushi - super Americanized maki type sushi, but high quality. If you go between 10-12pm it's all half off.
Home Slice: All-Edge Sicilian Pan Pizza (with a Nod to Detroit)
And sorry about the teenybopper rampage in the last post. I just saw that pizza and completely lost my mind for a second.
Home Slice: All-Edge Sicilian Pan Pizza (with a Nod to Detroit)
OMG OMG OMG OMG. I have been wanting to order these pans foreverrrr. This might just put me over the edge.
The Food Lab: The Best Guacamole (and the Science of Avocados)
Yum. I'm waiting for lunch right now and this article has me absolutely drooling. I love my guac limey and mostly smooth with some chunks. Mmm, I have a couple of hard avos sitting in my fruit basket at home... looks like I'll be busting out the paper bags to make guac, pronto.
Also, I love that this article comes during your vegan month, Kenji! I'm an omnivore who constantly is amazed at the deliciousness of vegan guacamole.
Super Bowl Giveaway: California Avocado Gift Box for Guacamole-Making
Guacamole. Gotta be guacamole.
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Filet Mignon Roast from Pat LaFrieda Meats
We love tenderloin in our house because it's so easy to eat. Of course I enjoy a NY strip or porterhouse or short ribs, but nothing compares to indiscriminately slicing off a huge bite of meat and enjoying it without the fear of gristle.
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Filet Mignon Roast from Pat LaFrieda Meats
We love filet mignon in our house! But we also love all meat.
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box
I had some amazing BBQ ribs this weekend so they're fresh in my mind, and I'd like to say that instead of bacon today.
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: La Quercia's Cured Meat Experience
Love it with melon. On pizza. By itself as a midnight snack.
Winter Fruit Salad with Pomegranates
I made this as a contribution to a family holiday dinner - it was a huge hit. Thanks for the recipe!
Home Slice: Making Deep-Fried Garlic Knots
Mmmm, these look amazing! Sometimes during the shaping process, I rip dough that was destined for pizza. Then we fry up some knots and then coat them in cinnamon sugar for a quick dessert. I'll have to make a garlic knot version next time. They remind me of my childhood pizzeria in South Jersey, where I'm pretty sure you can still buy knots at the bargain price of six for a dollar (maybe they ripped their dough too!).
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box
I love bacon. It's so versatile! With my eggs in the morning, as carbonara, on salads, sandwiches, soups.... mmm. Bacon.
Atlanta: Simple, Sloppy Diner Burgers at Rhea's
I love how the OTP/ITP battle rages everywhere, even here on Serious Eats.
The burger looks great!
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Korin Knife
I love my first "real" knife, a 7" Forschner chef's knife.
The Complete, No-Nonsense, Slightly Neurotic Guide to Making Great Latkes
This is an awesome article, but I have to disagree with chopping onions instead of grating them. If necessary, stash your mix in a sieve, over a bowl, to keep things drained and dry.
Also, the best frying oil (to me ;) ) is a mix of grapeseed and vegetable.
