hill food's Profile
So WHY were we forced to sit at the table till the food was gone??
jeez Dunk I didn't know we're married I musta been scary drunk...
lemme know our anniversary and I swear I'll send a card or something this year.
yep that's my mom too. and they wonder why I'm almost borderline anorexic (not that extreme, but definitely a smaller than average appetite)
Which cuisine is the most frugal in which to cook/eat by?
wow I need to read "Damascus Gate" by R. Stone again.
Funniest thing you seen in a restaurant?
heh - "don't say nothing bad about Miss Jenkins"
as a manger I'd tolerate it. life's too short. I'd just leave at most three or four spare rolls in the bathroom at any given time (it'd get her in more often for legitimate expenses)
What else can I brulee besides creme brulee?
those little fuckers had it coming. all I got to say.
What else can I brulee besides creme brulee?
let us know! I often use molasses, brown sugar and bourbon in direct-grill BBQ, just wanted to say one may want to play around a bit with the mix. I lost my propane torch in the last move and the acetylene torch seems, umm, a bit extreme
What else can I brulee besides creme brulee?
whoa there Nellie, I was sort of talking out of my a**. I imagine you'd want to cut it with some bourbon so it doesn't get too crunchy.
Tub Gin....anyone try it?
and tweak the logo to be "all Halloween orange and chimeney (sic) red"
I LOVE that song!
What else can I brulee besides creme brulee?
molasses or maple sugared pork chops
go crazy and throw some cilantro and minced hot pepper under the coating
Your mom's weird cooking ... and other stories? (recipes encouraged)
Boxy Champ (yeah I'm being needlessly clever) sounds like something to play with that my parents would like next Winter.
Looking for dinner that specializes in adorable, miniature, tiny, or bitesize in DC
so the consensus is - nope nothing like that.
(kidding) the issue comes down to do you want an event (Minibar or Rogue or Volt) or a situation where you can stop the rollercoaster at anytime and get the check (Zaytinya, Coco Sala, PS 7)
all are good choices (the ones I've been too), all are different it's a question of a definite 2+ hours or a maybe 2+hours if you're inclined? so many small plates so small a time.
What 20 dishes should I know how to make without a recipe?
I hope I used that right, my church Latin isn't what it once was. (like it ever amounted to anything!)
What 20 dishes should I know how to make without a recipe?
some don't understand the effort involved in getting a 'lazy' dish out good. there's no shame. pax vobiscum.
What 20 dishes should I know how to make without a recipe?
Hank - but at that point why not just do it all? (I know, "when I am lazy"...)
What 20 dishes should I know how to make without a recipe?
well see? there's no room for humor and fun in the world of food. it's a cold, grim and serious place.
What 20 dishes should I know how to make without a recipe?
Hank did allow "I don't think you are a neophyte"
and personally I prefer the basics.
White Trash Ads
oh yeah and I grow weary explaining why IE is a bad idea ("but it came with it!)
so dad do you wear the peuce men's Crocs somebody gave you to putter in the garden? I didn't think so.
just cause it's free doesn't mean ya have to use it. and sometimes there are indeed better free things.
Help a poor Los Angeles hound visiting Baltimore and DC
dive in among the fried soft shell Mr. Taster. dive in.
think of it as a 'spider roll' maki in a bun. and yeah different flavor accents
'Hound-worthy chow recs for a 4-day trip to DC, near Mt Vernon Square?
I may have the name wrong or maybe it closed (oh big surprise)
Help a poor Los Angeles hound visiting Baltimore and DC
not food, but transit logistics questions have arisen. during the week (and not too late at night) MARC has fast and really cheap trains btw Balto and DC. I've known people to use it on a daily basis,
you could easily pop in for lunch and back and faster than driving.
costco stores sell liquor in maryland?
serious? oh that's clever of SLC. enforce the idea the hard cores have to start early in the day. hmmm a latte or some gin?
Restaurants and Bars around the world you would love to clone..
well exactly. it's amazing they survived the ages
'Hound-worthy chow recs for a 4-day trip to DC, near Mt Vernon Square?
that kinda works for the place on NY too. the food is quite beside the point.
'Hound-worthy chow recs for a 4-day trip to DC, near Mt Vernon Square?
the update is always appreciated.
is the recommended Marrakech that place on NY Ave? if so it's good for a birthday party and if a little public humiliation is on the agenda it works. but while the food's not bad - it's not the point. (I can make a better tajine at home and, umm I don't belly dance and well you just don't want to see my attempt anyway). trust me.
VERY Annoyed by Flash Targeted Ads -- PLEASE GET RID OF THEM
ahh like the toll road gizmo. I almost never tell the exact truth when registering for a site, yet get useless 'suggestions' (not just on CH) for something nearby.
costco stores sell liquor in maryland?
DC works that way too - why only the Capitol Hill Safeway sells the hard stuff.
the whole East Coast has weird laws. I blame the Quakers. heck the Midwest Bible Belt city I grew up in now has 7 day a week availability and depending on the town 24-7. I always found it odd that in a town like DC or Balto (or Philly or NYC) where one stay out til all hours every day, one can't score something beyond beer or wine to enjoy at home.
