Try Dry Curacao?

I try to make all my food look like nuclear explosions!

Poultry shears (good ones) are your friend.

Twice-baked potatoes (one of the more annoying things to make, as it involves first baking the potatoes, removing all the baked stuff (don't burn yourself!) from the skins without fucking the skins up, then mashing the insides with in this case (perfect use for the Foley fork!) butter, sour cream, Parmigiano, herbs and spices, restuffing the skins, and baking them again), which were delicious. And chicken thigh persillade. I was so annoyed by how annoying the potatoes were to make, that I failed to even clean up the plate before serving. Oh - steamed broccoli and carrots, tossed with olive oil, lemon juice, Silk chili, salt and pepper on the side.

As a friend of mine said, one of the greatest screamers in the history of television.

And a regular donabe, as well!

I prefer to fling them from the bowl to my hand, with whatever implement they gift me!

Penne with mushrooms marinara. Roasted (heirloom) carrots with cumin, parsley and lemon.

Let us know how you like the TV dinners!

This is actually a place I'm NOT curious about... Two Bridges Luncheonette has bagels, coffee, ice cream and $3 PBR Who? What??

As Robert DeNiro once got asked, what's a mook mote?

Tis the season...

Dusted off the paella pan last night... Chicken paella. With a nice socarrat.

That must've been me, as I recently saw the tribute to Doc for his 100th birthday at the Rubin Museum. Tennessee Stud...

I'm pretty sure the same woman said the same thing to me. That's something I have not tried (not the exploding head, but fish kidneys), at least not to my knowledge.

Current Octoberfest menu has some nice stuff on it, including fried pig's feet (here called sulze), sauerbraten and a smoked pork shoulder. This is the smoked pork shoulder, over sauerkraut, and topfenknödel. We shared this dish, and I still brought some home. The greens were broccoli rabe the other night.

God bless him! Not quite in the same vein, but a number of years ago we went to see Glenn Tilbrook at City Winery. For a number of songs, one of his sons played guitar and maybe sang some background vocals. Then, for the encore, he brought out another son to play a mini keyboard...I think the kid was about 7.

If memory serves me correctly, yes!

I saw that and then worried that they might see this article about Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Austin.

Thanks! And I think I had one of the hottest dishes I've ever had at Khao Kang. Yeah, MaoMao looks great.

This is good to know; we certainly don't get out to Elmhurst that often (one time was when I got my first Covid vax at Elmhurst General, and we brought home from Ayada), but I do remember enjoying Zaab Zaab. What else should be on our list. @SethG? I did try the new Zaab Zaab in Essex Market yesterday...they might need a little more time to get up to speed. And when something says "grilled," cooking it on the flat top is not exactly the same thing. We've been once - enjoyed the drunken noodles, pork larb, and sausage. The spring rolls were good too - nicely fried, not greasy.

Yeah, that pass was pretty great.

Hey - they had a lot of wins; they just come in the regular season, and since so many teams make the playoffs, they don't mean that much.

One assist so far; not bad as he looks like he's 12. MSG+ Network wants over $300 for the season - I say bite me.

Saw this fabulous show at the Whitney last week: Henry Taylor: B Side. Should not be missed.
