Ice Cream Turkey from B...
This was huge fun. And its not turkey flavored ice cream (which some questioned). Baskin Robbins brought much joy to my office today by delivering dreams of holiday feasts in the form of ice cream. Upon delivery, the break room was immediately filled with folks that were once grinding...
Fleming’s is Awes...
I was damn happy when Fleming’s invited me and Stef to their fall menu preview event. Not only because I knew I was in for an exceptional evening, but because I have been wanting to say a few things about Fleming’s for years. You see, I used to work right above the...
Chicken Ramen at Kubo&#...
So Stef and I had the honor of attending a sneak peek Ramen tasting. As members of Houston’s Ramen in Common club, our good friend, Carl Rosa, graciously invited us to partake in this exclusive event. Carl is also the founder of the largest sushi club in the United States (and...
Hurricane Grill and Win...
If you know me, or read some of my previous posts, I have a weakness for wings. However, wings have to be done just right and I have long been disappointed in what Houston has to offer in wings. What makes a good wing? This is my wing criteria: The wings must be large All natural (free...
Chopsticks Are Better T...
We typically use chopsticks at our local asian restaurants. However, I am beginning to notice that even Chinese restaurants are only supplying chopsticks by request. I want this trend to reverse and we use chopsticks for everything, beyond asian food. I think all restaurants should...

The Super Bowl is quickly descending upon us. You may be hosting a party or tasked to bring a contributing plate. Oh, what to make? Work is busy, baseball practice is starting, and you don’t have time. And you sure don’t want to bring a bowl of chips, sandwich pinwheels, or...
The Ultimate Spaghetti ...
Spaghetti Sandwich: There are two camps in the spaghetti sandwich world; those who have always wanted to do it and those who have and now live better lives. When you are served a spaghetti dinner, you often get a slice of bread with it. I think it’s to mop up the sauce, but us...
Country Drive to Secret...
[Update 01/19/2013: Call before heading out there, they have the store listed for sale.] Texas offers something free for everyone to enjoy – a country drive. Country drives offer more romance than any Danielle Steel novel – though I am not sure about that Mr. Shades of Grey...
Vegemite vs. Marmite &#...
[Authors note: OK OK, I know by now I spread it on too thick. Kraft or Marmite should put instructions on something so powerful.] What is vegemite? What does vegemite taste like? In America, we all grew up wondering what the hell does this mean: “He just smiled and gave me a...
