Like so many others, we’ve been spending our time in quarantine cooking up a storm. I mean, what the hell else are we going to do, exercise? Hahahahahahahaha. Kathleen has really used this quarantine to take her cooking to the next level. We’ll be sharing her successes here on this site, as soon as I …
First off, my apologies for the months and months with no new postings here—I’m sure you’ve all been absolutely despondent without our regular updates. Some health challenges, job changes, and general laziness on my part have all contributed to our massive slowdown. But we’ve still been traveling, and we’ve damn sure still been eating, so …
Yes, I know this should have been posted several weeks ago when it was actually Halloween. For one, we’ve been traveling, and for two, I’ve been lazy. In any case, we’re back at it now. We’d been meaning to try Filomena for some time, thanks in large part to friends of ours who are absolutely …
Let me just start by saying, I am not a dessert guy. I rarely leave enough room at the end of the meal, and I’ve never quite enjoyed sweet things as much as savory ones. So, when I tell you that we’ve found the best fucking bakery in America, and the cakes there will melt …
If you visit this site, you know we’ve been on a bit of a Richmond kick recently. Our first visit back in July was eye-opening, and our second visit a few weeks ago was, if anything, even better. During our most recent visit, between all the biscuit eating, not to mention our return visit to …
In a great Southern food city like Richmond, you’d expect it would be easy to find a quality biscuit. We sampled several during our first trip to Richmond, but none of the biscuits we tried were particularly satisfying. Our second trip, we decided, would be a different story. Prior to our most recent visit, Kathleen …
Before starting this website and subsequently posting our every food thought for all to read, we’d regularly field the question, “so what’s your favorite restaurant in D.C.?” Up until last year, we didn’t have a clear answer. But we do now; unequivocally, and without reservation. The answer? Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab! Despite …
Last November, we spent Thanksgiving week in Paris. Our first trip to Paris wasn’t much of a success, so we were damned and determined to get it right this time. How’d we do this? We limited the number of sites to see each day, we slowed our pace of life to be more Parisian, and, …
The last week or so has been particularly stressful. People deal with stress in different ways—some people (i.e., weirdos) exercise, some people throw themselves into their creative outlets, and some people, like us, eat. And when I say eat, I mean consume a meal of such magnitude, such grandiosity, and such epic deliciousness, it can’t …
It goes without saying that we love to discover new restaurants. Hell, we’ve devoted an entire website to writing about food. Apart from the joy of discovery, though, I sometimes feel like kicking myself after enjoying a good meal at a previously untried spot. It may be stupid, but sometimes I think to myself, man, …
