This is one recipe that has actually sat in our queue for a while – I wasn’t sure that I wanted to post it, but eventually decided to. It’s certainly a delicious sounding dish when you look at it, and it was good, though I think it would’ve been even better if we had worked [...]
Aimee and I decided to try a new spot in Inman Square this evening that had some really high praise associated with it from the Boston Globe – including comparisons to the heralded Momofuku in Manhattan. The place had a rather interesting name “East by Northeast” (EXNE…just like the annual South by Southwest conference in [...]
I set out to make some sort of simple pasta with a hint of some Spanish Manchego cheese. Most of the time a little cheese typically goes on top of a finished pasta that we concoct from time to time – but I want to make this a little bit different. So I decided to [...]
Since the inception of this blog over a year ago now, we’ve been reluctant to feature many desserts – mainly the reason for this is simple – we don’t eat dessert a lot so therefore we don’t cook it often as an accompaniment to our dinner. This night was different though and part of the [...]

Such is the case here, when I opened up the fridge and found 5-6 lonely but beautiful golden beets and thanks to another great idea from Ana Sortun (chef at Oleana and author of the cookbook Spice) [...]
This is one of those ‘I don’t have a lot of time or motivation to cook’ dinners that really satisfies. It’s really simple to prepare and tastes the same way, but there are some tricks you can do to make the taste really good. This is also one of my favorite ways to utilize broccoli [...]
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 [...]
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 – [...]
You may think that the title of this post makes it sound like some big, heavy, complicated, difficult recipe to produce, but I want to assure you that it’s anything but. One of the beauties of rustic Italian food is that it’s all relatively simple, even for an elegant meal such as braised duck. This [...]
The first time I heard of Mary Chung’s place in Central Square Cambridge, it was through my friend Doug Sweetser at Black Duck Software in Waltham, MA, who used to frequent the establishment in order to get food that was spicy enough for his tastes. Doug, you see, has the unique ability to eat a [...]
