Seafood
Any thoughts on Seablue by Michael Mina, Joe's Stone Crab, or Nobhill Tavern for a seafood diiner?
Sour Pickles
Looking for an authentic tried and true east coast sour pickle recipe. Thanks.
Leftover Buttermilk
I have almost a quart of buttermilk leftover from a cake recipe. I could make buttermilk mashed potatoes, pancakes, or fried chicken but I looking for some kind of soup with buttermilk as a base so I can use it all. Any suggestions?
Spoiler Alert: It's Per Se
I agree. We went to Per Se several years ago and cannot stop taking about it. The best meal of our lives. We are now saving to go to French Laundry. This isn't a weekly or even annual thing, we love the experience and would rather spend our money on a blowout dinner every few years instead of annual vacations.

Cabinets-Liner or Not
Thanks everyone. I think I will skip the liner except for my pots/pans drawer.
I'll never make THAT again!
Can you point me to the Anne Burrell's recipe for noodles-would love to make them. Tx.
Cabinets-Liner or Not
No, but I wish the cabinet maker did. When I was a kid my mother used contact paper, but there are products out there now that are much easier to use. I like your choice of cotton towels.
Cabinets-Liner or Not
My kitchen remodel is almost finished and I have a ton more cabinets. But, do I want to go through the trouble and expense of adding liner...do you use liner or not?
Looking for a new range (split from General Chowhounding Topics board)
Off subject, but I am looking for a new range. What model is your GE?
How to clean pyrex baking dishes?
I recently used oven cleaner on my really old 20 years+ pyrex and they now look like new with no ill effects.
Top Chef All-Stars - Ep. #13 (Finale Pt. 1) - 03/09/11 (Spoilers)
Really, a grease fire in the kitchen that requires a fire department! I am starting to believe that this is nothing but a staged show.
How to make the perfect "6-Minute Egg" in 10 minutes
Won't the egg break/crack as soon as you place it in the water?
Roast Beef for Sandwiches
The roast beef for sandwiches that I have been buying at the supermarkets is utterly inedible and expensive. I would love to make my own but am unsure of what cut of beef and how to cook it so that is remains rare to medium rare (slow cooking?) and tender. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Split Pea Soup Problem
I made split pea soup last week. I did not soak the peas overnight or put the soup in the blender. I cooked my soup over very low heat for about 3 hours, sometimes adding additional stock if the soup was getting too thick before it was done.
Bison Steak
I have a NY Strip Bison steak that I would like to cook for dinner tonight. Most recipes say to grill it, but I do not have a grill. Can I panfry it as I would a regular steak?
Vegetarian substitution for pear/pancetta appetizer
Dried cranberries would be nice.
Iron Chef America Sous Chefs
Have any of the Iron Chef America Sous chefs gone on to Top Chef? I thought I recognized maybe Richard or Ed from Top Chef.

The Best Thing I Ever Ate-Porkchop
Not sure if the show I watched was a rerun or not. I think it was Ted Allen who went someplace and ate the biggest porkchop I have ever seen. Was it in Brooklyn, NY? Does anyone know? My SO is in NY soon and would love to go there just for that particular porkchop.
Dress for Cut and Sinatra
We have reservations for Cut and Sinatra next month. Do I need to do the "little black dress" and "business dress" for our dinners? I was hoping for a "business casual" look (no sportscoart/suit or dress). Any suggestions? I don't mind dressing up a bit, but would prefer not to.
Really Great Seafood-Not Sushi
We will be in Las Vegas in June and would love to go to a really great seafood restaurant for dinner (or a any restaurant that serves great seafood). We are staying at the Wynn and money is not a great concern. We are not that interested in sushi. Thanks!
Another Story About Tipping and The Tip Jar.......
Not being snarky but maybe he was surprised that you would leave an 80 cent tip instead of $1 (assuming "80" meant 80 cents.
Genmert Inc Sonoma White Open Stock Dinnerware Collection
Looking for nice white, inexpensive dinnerware. I found Genmert Inc Sonoma White Open Stock Dinnerware Collection at Linensnthings. With shipping and coupon I can get a dozen each of dinner plates, salad plates, and pasta bowls for about $90. It seems like such a good deal but I cannot find a review anywhere for it. Has anyone used this and if so, is it a decent dinnerware for everyday use? Thanks.
Mozza (Ste-Catherine @ De la Visitation) - Long, negative, review.
I have never eaten a Ceasar salad that had bacon or capers in it.
Iron chef - Flay vs. Smith
Sabato was so out of place. What were they thinking? It drove me nuts when he had a bite of something on his knife and proceeded to eat off of it!
