Pumpkin loaf with chocolate chips. An old family recipe that my family can't get enough of.
I believe that the Pike Place Market is maybe the best anywhere for variety, character and the view! The wildest I've been to is an outdoor market in Bangkok that had some "scary" things for sale - spiders, etc.
Going to New York for 5 days at the end of this month. I haven't been in 3 years and would love an update as to your favorite places to eat. Also, for French food - where should we go besides Balthazar, which I love. I'd also like to know where the specials are - such as prix fixe meals. A prix fixe lunch special at Jean Georges is how I ended up eating there and it was amazing. Finally - is the Hotel Chelsea in bad shape or might it be an interesting place to stay?
It's the fear I never had until now: to return to my hotel room and find everything—walls, ceiling, furniture, floor—covered in melted cheese. In 1999, Canadian artist Cosimo Cavallaro covered Room 114 at the Washington Jefferson Hotel in New York City in 1,000 pounds of cheese from the Swiss Cheese Foundation. I wouldn't have wanted to visit that room on a hot day. Watch the video after the jump.... More
Had an amazing meal at Paley's Place in Portland recently. I definitely recommend it.
