Toulouse – Austin, TX

This is a review of Toulouse Austin in the Domain. Our visit was also only a few weeks after opening so I’m sure things will smooth out a bit over the next few weeks. With that being said, the only real bumps in our dining 

Shrimp Ceviche Salad

Shrimp Ceviche Salad

This Shrimp Ceviche Salad recipe is super simple in preparation and ingredients. It is closer to a salad than a ceviche since the shrimp is cooked before assembling into the salad. I’ve had ceviche dozens of times, and even as a lover of sushi, sashimi, 

Sweet Potato Hash

Sweet Potato Hash

My healthy Sweet Potato Hash recipe is super simple and delicious. Over the years, I’ve had some good hash, some bad hash, and some ugly hash. I love corned beef hash the day after St. Patty’s Day, but that’s another recipe. This is a common 

Pumpkin Waffles

Pumpkin Waffles

My pumpkin waffles recipe is derived from my close friend Leonard’s grandmother’s recipe as a foundation and some experimentation of my own. I’ve pursued the elusive ‘perfect waffle’ for decades and continue to try and improve every time I make them. One of my favorite 

Falafel

Falafel

This falafel recipe has been a labor of love, sweat, and tears. Well, maybe not that dramatic, but I have never failed so much on a dish than falafel. (Baking aside, but that’s another story) The first few times I tried to make falafel, I

Urban Farmer – Philadelphia, PA

Urban Farmer – Philadelphia, PA

Urban Farmer was a delight to find especially as it was in the Logan Hotel that I was staying. I was born and raised in Philadelphia but I never really had a chance to visit in my adult years. Recently I had an opportunity to 

Cobb Salad

Cobb Salad

This Cobb Salad recipe is one of my favorite salads to make.  The ingredients, as well as preparation, are simple and result in a great-tasting healthy dish. My Cobb Salad Recipe is a slight departure from the ‘original’ mostly because I omit watercress and frequently 

Austin Street Corn (Healthy Elote)

Austin Street Corn (Healthy Elote)

I really wanted to call this Mexican Street Corn (Elote), but with my healthy adaptations to this recipe, it just wouldn’t be right. It would be like me trying to pass off menudo without tripe, or pate without liver – good, but just not the 

Creamy Zucchini Corn Pasta

Creamy Zucchini Corn Pasta

This Creamy Zucchini Corn Pasta Recipe can be misleading because there is no cream nor pasta in this dish. But it is super creamy and delicious, and healthy with the use of zucchini pasta. My spiralizer has been one of my most helpful acquisitions of

L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon – Las Vegas, NV

L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon provides amazing culinary creations.  I would venture to say nearly on par with Joel Robuchon next door, but in a more relaxed environment.  The open kitchen concept with bar seating around the kitchen is great. You are able to watch your 

Seared Scallops

If you’ve ever watched Gordon Ramsay on Hell’s Kitchen, it looks as if scallops were God’s creation to embarrass chefs. You also have to wonder how difficult it is to cook perfectly seared scallops. I am here to tell you, it’s super easy and quick 

Zuppa Toscana

Zuppa Toscana

This is my Zuppa Toscana Recipe loosely based on that place with unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks.  I think they have pasta too… For years, I frequented Olive Garden almost religiously on a weekly basis. Of the hundreds of times I’ve been, I think I 

Katz’s Delicatessen – New York, NY

Katz’s Delicatessen – New York, NY

Katz’s Delicatessen is all that and more. You’ve seen it on When Harry Met Sally, and probably half a dozen shows on the Food Network. Over the years, I heard great things about Katz’s Deli.  I laugh at some of the outrageous reviews on Yelp 

Classic Fresh Salsa: Authentic Pico de Gallo Recipe

Classic Fresh Salsa: Authentic Pico de Gallo Recipe

What does every Tex-Mex joint in Texas claim to have? The best salsa or guacamole in the world using their ‘world famous’ super secret salsa recipe. To me, There are really only two types of salsa that I eat frequently and enjoy – tomato (red) 

Lentil Soup

Lentil Soup

Every single lentil soup recipe I have come across calls for blending at least partially. So, I always blended my lentil soup. One day, after recently completing a move, I decided to make lentil soup. However, I hadn’t unpacked everything and I had no idea 

Black’s Barbecue – Lockhart, TX

Black’s Barbecue – Lockhart, TX

Black’s Barbecue is it. After hearing all the hype about Lockhart BBQ, namely Black’s, I decided to make the 30 minute drive out to Lockhart to see what all the fuss was about.  Boy, was it worth the drive! After finding a parking spot in a small
