Eating Every Day: Bigoli
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015/07/bigoli.html
Tuesday, July 21, 2015. Los Angeles, California, July 21, 2015—. On vacation for a week. You'd have been wrong to have thought I was on extended fast, though that was certainly an option. Since my last post — was it really eleven days ago? We're on the road again: a quick drive down to Los Angeles for a consultation. We stopped tonight. A pasta I like very much for its density and substance. They're like. Bigoli al sugo di vitello, foie gras e quanciale. Veal sauce, foie gras and “guanciale”. Rich, deep,...

Eating Every Day: Japanese
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015/07/japanese.html
Saturday, July 4, 2015. Berkeley, July 1, 2015—. ISITORS TO THIS BLOG. Will have noticed by now the limited range of my culinary delights, whose center is, I would say, somewhere in a triangle whose three points are Nice, Venice, and Siracusa. Of course the San Francisco Bay Area is involved to, but basically as it coincides with the Triangle. In other words,. Asian cuisines are not my thing. 8212; I lost interest in the broth. 1830 Fourth Street, Berkeley; (510) 845-8100. Altered photo by Ann Basart.

Eating Every Day: July 2015
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Back to the eatblog. Eastside Road, July 28, 2015—. I' VE BEEN BUSY. Not too busy to eat, of course; just too busy to write. Let's see: last time I told you about the miraculous Ojai tri-tip… that waa last Wednesday, though it seems a month ago. Since then it's been H O T. Up here — 102° today, for example — too hot to cook: but we've been doing it. We stopped at a favorite butcher shop on Thursday and bought a couple of duck legs. Saturday: Salmon, bruschetta, broad beans.

Eating Every Day: Eating at the winery
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015/07/eating-at-winery.html
Thursday, July 9, 2015. Eating at the winery. Warrandyte, Victoria, July 9, 2015—. Had opened its restaurant just a few weeks before my last visit here, last fall, and my brother was eager to take us there this time to try it out. I must admit I had doubts when we drove in: very ambitious indeed, overdone architecture, ambitious grounds, bocce court, pergolas, grand entrance. From top to bottom in the rather blurry photo (sorry):. Baccalà croquettes with cauliflower puree and green peppercorns. You see p...

Eating Every Day: Hot Dog
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015/07/hot-dog.html
Sunday, July 5, 2015. Eastside Road, July 3, 2015—. E BEGIN TO CELEbRATE. The holiday with the most American possible of suppers: Hot Dog, trimmings, cole slaw. The dog is reasonably correct, politically: from Niman Schell, or whatever it's called these days. The bun's from Downtown Bakery and Creamery in Healdsburg. An onion sliced quite thin; mustard; pickle relish. Onthe side a fine cole slaw Cook made from cabbage, onion, parsley I'd guess; who knows what else. Salice Salentino, Epicuro, 2012.

Eating Every Day: Out in the country
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015/07/out-in-country.html
Friday, July 10, 2015. Out in the country. Mount Dandenong, Victoria, July 10, 2015—. For a drive out into the country, no? The low winter light breaking through clouds over the lacy tops of the double-tiered forest, tall scraggly eucalypts over tree ferns, past B&Bs and pancake restos, hugging the left on narrow winding roads up into the heights, over two thousand feet above sea level…. Shiraz, Payten and Jones (Yarra Valley), 2014: a bit sweet, rich and ready, forward. 8226; Piggery Café.

Eating Every Day: Fourth of July
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015/07/fourth-of-july.html
Sunday, July 5, 2015. Eastside Road, July 4, 2015—. JULY: Independence Day. We refer to it as our Revolutionary War, but there was no revolution; England persisted in its antiquated monarchy (as it continues to do): we simply declared our Independence. We celebrated the occasion with a modest but delicious and nourishing lunch: chicken broth fortified with leftover pesto, and plums and figs from the trees.

Eating Every Day: January 2015
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 31, 2015. Eastside Road, January 31, 2015—. We haven't been out there often enough — though barely half an hour distant, it's off our usual routes. But we took a friend out today to do our part for his medical expenses, and the dinner, prepared by a friend who's the chef at another local restaurant, was really top-notch. Zinfandel, Ravenswood Old Vines, vintage? 8226; The Casino Bar and Grill. 17000 Bodega Highway, Bodega, California; (707) 876-3185. Friday, January 30, 2015. After the ...

Eating Every Day: June 2015
http://eatingday.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2015. Eastside Road, June 29, 2015—. ERRIES — FRUIT. In general — have been a recurring theme the last few weeks. What a fine lunch they make! Here, strawberries from Preston of Dry Creek, mulberries from our tree, apricots ditto. It's the first time our apricot tree has fruited, though we set it out a good three years ago. And you see most of the crop here. But how delicate and floral they are, how fresh. Duck breast at Zuni. Salome Dances for Peace. My companion had another marvelous ...
