Poussin

A nicely spatchcocked poussin is easy to cook and tastes great.  Cooks in 30 min and portion wise, is perfect for each individual.  I love my poussin cooked with garlic, herbs and simple salt and pepper...  

Jersey Subs

Growing up in Central Jersey, this was an after thought.  A legit Jersey Sub.  But now moving out of the state, nobody seems to make one just like those childhood years.   So when I find myself back in good 'ol New Jersey, I stop in for a real treat.  Jersey baby!!!

White Gold

These beautiful nuggets of White Truffles from Piedmont, Italy are something amazing.  They have the aromatic strength of 50 roses, and when warmed, they emit a bouquet of elegance through out the dining room.  They seek a pretty penny but well worth the experience when properly executed.  

Dumplings

Had an urge to fry up some dumplings the other day.  Ran to the market to grab ingredients and after an hour or so, we had dumplings for lunch.  

Nothing beats freshly made dumplings.  

Paella

Felt like a Paella night so darted straight to Whole Foods and picked up some key ingredients.  Chicken Drumsticks, Littleneck Clams, Shrimp, Saffron, Chicken Stock, Clam Juice, Green Pepper.  

I think it came out pretty nicely.

Fried Rice

Making Fried Rice for your kids' lunch boxes is quite therapeutic at 7am.  

Especially when you've had a tough early morning.  

Roasted Chicken

There aren’t too many things that stop me in my tracks. But a good roast chicken certainly deserves a moment’s pause. This bird is from Nomad in NYC.  Quite possibly the best chicken I’ve ever had. 

Bites of Harmony

Recently at En Brasserie in NYC, I had the pleasure of sitting at Abe's Kitchen.  An 8 seat Chefs Tasting Menu done once a month.  One of the many spectacular dishes : This thinly sliced Miyazaki A5 Ribeye was lightly torched and garnished with a soy reduction and edible flowers.  Like the autumn leaves falling off the trees, it was as if you were foraging little morsels of decadence bite after bite.

Oisa Ramen Slurp & Go

If you are in the Boston area and looking for a really good bowl of Ramen, Oisa Ramen Slurp & Go is a great option.  Located in the Financial District, it's a brisk 8 min walk from Government Center Station.  Pictured above is their signature Tonkotsu Ramen.  Hearty (But not so dense like chowder) Pork broth with signature Hakata style noodles, you get to enjoy the flavors of Fukuoka Japan with this bowl.   The Chashu is made from premium Duroc Pork raised in Iowa and the pickled mustard greens and ginger give this bowl a taste of home for those of you from Southern Japan.

Sashimi Platter

Feast with your eyes... then your nose... then your mouth.

Liga Privada T52

Truly something special.

Salt Crusted Salmon

This beautiful Verlasso Salmon was baked in a lavender salt crust and served for brunch the other day.

Lamb Chops from Le Cirque

Who doesn't love a nice plate of perfectly cooked med-rare lamb chops
served with lamb jus reduction and roasted veggies?

Setagaya Ramen in NYC = Sucks!!

Poor Setagaya.

In Japan, they are an amazing Ramen chain.
But here in NYC... Possibly the worst bowl of Ramen sold by a
restaurant group and not a Mom&Pop shop.

Now that's what's up!

I found myself at Katz's again and this time, I made sure I got a
moist Pastrami sandwich.
Boy was this good.

Hokkaido Miso Ramen

Today til the weekend at Mitsuwa in NJ, some famous guy from Japan is
cooking up his Miso Ramen.
It's a bit on the saltier side for me but this is the real deal.
Come get it while it's here.
