French Potato Salad Recipe – Quick and Easy
This one takes barely anytime at all. In fact, that’s really why I’m posting it here. We’ve both been feeling somewhat beat after getting home from work, so cooking is often the last thing we want to do. Then we watched Food, Inc. and that attitude got flipped around. It prompted us to start getting [...]
Boston Restaurant Reviews: Sol Azteca on Beacon St – Oaxacan Cuisine in the Heart of Boston
We’ve always been fans of this place that hides under the long line of buildings covering Beacon St. right near the St. Mary’s T stop in Brookline, MA. There are a few reasons why we really dig this post, but one of them has to be the authentic, rustic Oaxacan sauces and cabbage slaw – [...]
Eggplant and Ricotta Lasagna Recipe – Noodle Free Lasagna!
I have taken on two challenges with the invention of this recipe: the first is making a pasta-less lasagna that is hands-down delicious (you’re welcome, gluten-phobes and carb-free dieters!); the second is creating a dish that even the most critical loather of eggplant simply could not resist.

Braised Duck Ragu Recipe with Fennel and Tagliatelle

Doug, you see, has the unique ability to eat a [...]
Dear Diner: Up For Breakfast in Manchester, VT – Score: 10/10!
Let me first start by explaining what it’s like to go on a trip with Bob Owen – my father. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been to the destination once or a thousand times, you’ll always feel like a tourist. He’s a man in constant need of information – “What are you known for”, “Who [...]
Organic Crispy Braised Chicken Recipe with Fennel, Olives, Lemon…and Bacon
Aimee got me a great cookbook for Christmas – Thomas Keller’s Ad Hoc At Home and I immediately really began to enjoy the organic, seasonal recipe that were featured in the book. This is one of the first recipes that caught my eye, so I wanted to make it. Braised chicken perhaps doesn’t do as [...]
Swiss Cheese Fondue Recipe – Traditional (and delicious) Ski Food from the Alps
A few years back, me and a couple buddies took some time off and went on a ski trip in the Swiss and French Alps. The trip took us to the Jungfrau, where we stayed in Wengen – a totally traditional and classic ski village. While there, we had to try the traditional Fondue after [...]
