had the full DBGB experience, 4 courses of food in the back, it was all great.....i stuck to the seafood-pork-bird-veggie zone but our 4 top went all over.....rich and needed a few vegan days to flex back, but not too buttery and well worth the prices and great beer and wine

dont know when its due for an american release but i just saw that the director of delicatessen and amelie, jean pierre jeunet, has a movie coming out this month.
i suppose there is an on the go market for single serving instant coffees but i still find it ironic that starbucks which road the wave of quality whole bean coffee would in a search for greater revenue head back in the other direction. just drinking it now (they gave me a free sample). not terrible. they did a great job of replicating their burnt flavor.
Chanterelle has closed. I'm guessing our wedding kept them open a few months extra. Sad to see them go.
Well done and extremely disheartening info graphic.
i want wolf blitzer to die quickly.

Very few words have a birthday so precise, and so precisely known, as couch potato. It was on July 15, 1976, we are told, that couch potato came into being, uttered by Tom Iacino of Pasadena, California, during a telephone conversation. He was a member of a Southern California group humorously opposing the fads of exercise and healthy diet in favor of vegetating before the TV and eating junk food (1973). Because their lives centered on television--the boob tube (1966)--they called themselves boob tubers. Iacino apparently took the brilliant next step and substituted potato as a synonym for tuber. Thinking of where that potato sits to watch the tube, he came up with couch potato.

The only four places that today openly and legally, authorize active assistance in dying of patients, are:
Oregon (since l997, physician-assisted suicide only);
Switzerland (1941, physician and non-physician assisted suicide only);
Belgium (2002, permits 'euthanasia' but does not define the method;
Netherlands (voluntary euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide lawful since April 2002 but permitted by the courts since l984)

b. brought me back an amazing book from her recent European travels titled "Made in Italy Food and Stories" by Giorgio Locatelli, the chef at Locanda Locatelli in London. It's a cook book, but that's selling it quite short. Between recipes he writes at some length about Italian history as it relates to both ingredients and techniques. So you end up learning how and why various food stuffs as well as specific dishes are the way they are.
For example, there are some risotto recipes, of course, but also a couple of pages describing all the regional variations along with some remembrances from his childhood in the north. And then a couple more pages on the different kinds of rice, going into the history of their cultivation as well as some scientific explanations of what happens to the rice as it cooks. Then more pages on the history of Parmesan and Grana Padano. And only then comes a discussion of risotto technique. And only after all that are a few recipes offered.
By far the most interesting "cook book" I've ever read. Really informative. Highly recommended.

Seltzer Man Is Out of Action, and Brooklyn Thirsts
woke up to 3/4" of water on 1/4 of my kitchen floor. dont know how to solve that equation. fortunately i tracked down my landlord before he set out to atone for his sins. not sure if god is trying to tell me something but ive started to construct an ark out of flexible straws and duct tape just in case. i might not be able to save myself but at least the mice will survive to reset the evolutionary process.
in other news i was given a ball that rafael nadal used at the us open this year. no provenance or signature to verify the claim though. so, i got that going for me.

Ate at Manresa. Delightful. Familiar ingredients in unfamiliar preparations and combination.
caught district 9. (un)pleasantly adult science fiction film, or as one equally uncreative mind put it in a review, the thinking man's transformers. (available online for those that want to find it.)
