This was the Steak Dinner we had last night, with a few of the ingredients I used to prepare the meal. I have to admit, the steak was not perfectly medium the way I planned it….more medium-well, which is not all that perfect for a piece of good steak. I used a little under a [...]
Spouse took me to see “Brokeback Mountain” this afternoon Before we headed downtown, we decided to try the Quizno’s $2.99 roast beef sub they’ve been advertising on tv. We’ve never tried Quizno’s before and thought this new item would be interesting with the au jus.
Well, that was the plan anyway. We made the wrong turn [...]
You won’t find much SEO, Internet Mogul, Marketing and Web Tips here, we pretty much stick to food and Philippine living. But I came across a “How To Make Money On Line” guy a couple months back name of John Chow, and in between all his Internet-guruing and how to make a million blog posts [...]
Brats and potato salad.Yup, those are both bratwursts served with a Potato Salad. The lighter one is a veal brat and the darker one is pork. Both seemed to be deep-fried which made them split from their casings. Spouse said he never tasted a more authentic veal bratwurst since he lived in Germany. I thought [...]
We found this pretty well-stocked little delicatessen along Fields Avenue some weeks back. There’s also a restaurant on the premises that serves Italian, Australian and some Filipino dishes. That Beef and Mushroom Pie pictured here is one of their specialties – absolutely delicious.They also have sangas – an Australian sub sandwich which [...]
What’s in your clubhouse sandwich? Do you even belong to a club? Whether or not you do, I’m sure you’re familiar with the Clubhouse Sandwich. Apparently, different clubs have different ingredients in their clubhouse sandwich.
Minsky’s is located in the City Market complex on the old River Market district of Kansas City. I seem to have lost most of my photos from that trip, please click on the links to learn more about this landmark of Kansas City.
It was Labor Day Monday when we were there and most shops were closed! [...]
I first heard of Arthur Bryant’s Barbecue from Calvin Trillin’s book, “American Fried”. Several years ago, I picked up a cheap copy of the book at that second hand book outlet they have in every SM Mall in Metro Manila. I loved everything about the book: the author, the food, the mood, the places and the [...]
Spouse treated me to lunch at our favorite place in Denver, Cucina Colore. I like this place because the food is no nonsense and always fresh, the staff is friendly and the restaurant is just so bright and contemporary I always enjoy my meals so much more.
The first photo is the Carpaccio served with arugula, shaved [...]
Another steak house..but this is Omaha! And it is Johnny’s Cafe which I’ve mentioned in some previous posts. So here’s one dedicated to Omaha’s Original Steakhouse Since 1922. If you haven’t noticed yet, I’m a stickler for the old, established places that have been making people happy for the longest time. I don’t know why [...]
Spouse and I go to Nebraska Beef Company every time we visit Omaha on business. It’s so conveniently located just a skip and a hop from our usual hotel. It’s an unassuming place with a name that could throw you off into thinking this was just a place to order those famous Omaha steaks. We’ve been there for lunch in [...]
There’s a little restaurant in the city of Pueblo that serves great Italian food. It’s called Galileo’s Diner and is located on East Routt Avenue between Northern and Mesa. I don’t know how long it’s been around, but right now, it’s not all that pleasant a place to dine. It’s dark, small and a wee [...]
