I’m always surprised by the random cravings I get. For example, paella. I can probably count the number of times I’ve had paella on one hand. I can’t remember a particularly remarkable paella that I can point to in my memory as a definitive paella experience. Yes, I remember having paella in Barcelona […]
On a recent trip to London I hit up a restaurant in Exmouth Market called Moro, had Romesco sauce and changed my life. I’m not quite sure how I’ve gone 30 years on this earth and the first time I had Romesco sauce was in London, in February… of 2012. Seriously, […]
I have blogged a WHOLE lot about shrimp and grits. I can’t help myself, I just love me some shrimp and grits! In my quest for the most delicious shrimp and grits I often come across the name Anson Mills. Anson Mills is a South Carolina based company that produces artisan milled […]
Every once in awhile I get these random cravings for things that I rarely eat. Take this jambalaya for instance. I’ve had jambalaya less than a handful of times and really don’t have any particularly memorable jambalaya experiences that I can refer. Honestly, I can’t tell you where exactly I had it or who […]
I’m always on the hunt for different things to eat. I go through phases where I’ll eat vegetarian for days on end (unintentionally) and then stretches where I’m basically a carnivore (equally unintentionally). I often find myself looking for balance and often turn to fish. Usually my go-to fish is salmon, pretty much […]
Shrimp and grits is likely in my top 20 favourite foods. I make it fairly regularly and if I go out and see it on a menu I must order it. Unfortunately shrimp and grits is a bit of an anomaly on Toronto menus so it makes the dish even more special.
The other […]
As I’ve mentioned before salmon is a staple in my kitchen. For better or worse. Truth be told I’m getting kind of tired of salmon. It’s not the most interesting fish. It’s ALWAYS around. And it’s an easy fish to make look good. Maybe I just need a challenge, but I’m […]
A few weeks (months? time flies) ago thanks to The Twitters I was connected with the folks at one of my fave tea shops, David’s Tea. They sent over 3 different teas for me to do some experimenting in the kitchen with: Exotica, The Glow and Honeybush Lemon Ginger.
The […]
I first wrote about mussels a few months here and it was the first time I had ever made mussels. Since then I have made that recipe a few times and it continues to be delicious.
Mussels are something that I make when I have the apartment to myself. My […]
Going through recent posts it feels like I’ve barely posted any dinner ideas as of late. Between traveling updates, my balcony garden and lots of desserts, it seems that dinner has fallen to the wayside. Truth be told in the summer I get a bit lazy and will do a lot […]
