Aramoro posted:Roadkill cooked in the engine compartment of your car. I made an awesome stew with non-roadkill ingredients on my engine block. 4+ hours of driving and it was sublime. Now I just need to figure out how to do biscuits in there and it'll be a one-stop cooking machine for roadtrips.

Can you do a chickencheese with biscuits, though?

Yes but you will need custom gravy.

As a leaving present from work I've just been given MCUSTA Zanmai pro santoku and paring knives with quince wood handles. The blades look like laminated/Damascus steel. Beautiful. How impressed should I be? They feel and look like pretty serious knives. ( I've got a Wusthof Pro S chef knife and decent Sabatier parings which are good, but these seem a cut above, no pun intended).

Are they on this page? Looks like a nice, high quality knife.

The best restaurant near Denver in my opinion is Frasca, which is a relatively short drive up to Boulder. Or if you want to go for regional specialties, you can always find a place that serves Rocky Mountain Oysters, and elk and bison are on. There are a large, large number of excellent breweries as well if you enjoy beer. You could also go to Casa Bonita if you hate yourself and/or love South Park.

Today is my daughter's birthday. I asked her what she wants for her birthday dinner, and she wants to go to the Japanese restaurant for sushi and Miso soup. She turned 5 today. I'm so proud.

I feel kind of bad for all the gws kids with precocious tastes when the times comes that they'll go to school and at least occasionally have to eat cafeteria food.

At least in my case, my kids love good food, but they don't turn their nose up at "typical" fare either. They'll eat fish sticks or chicken nuggets happily.

No Wave posted:Al pastor tacos are definitely my choice. I take it you guys haven't been to Queens (NYC)? I have a Greek friend who knows where to go for the good stuff (including horse pastrami) and has taken me to some real hole-in-the-wall places that serve up much better dishes than "GYRO WORLD" tourist traps. Ethnic food outside NYC is pretty hit-and-miss in general, though. My mind was blown when I ordered Chinese take-out in a Boston suburb and it was accompanied with dinner rolls instead of rice.

Queens is a long enough trip that I usually end up springing for seafood when I get out there because seafood's always been my favorite part of greek cuisine. If you have suggestions I would be interested to hear them.

I make it a point to hit up Jackson Heights at least once every couple of months, because the price on veg, spices, pickles, etc is exponentially lower than what I pay in Manhattan. Add that to the Chinese markets in Elmhurst, where I can snag fresh shiitake for like $1.50/lb, and those little enoki mushrooms for a buck a pack, and fresh lotus root for like $1.75/lb, and all kind of other awesome noodles in the noodle aisle, and you've got a place worth visiting. Last time I was in Flushing, we managed to buy a granny cart full of stuff for like $50. It was insane.

You need to realize there are other ethnic centers outside of new york. Having bad Chinese take out in a suburb doesn't mean "everywhere but New York is poo poo" no matter how much you want it to. I bet your lutefisk suppers are terrible and you've probably never even been to a Smörgåsbord.

A New York cop once told me that he wanted the city to build a giant mirror on the jersey side of the Hudson, so all the New Yorkers could look at the skyline. That's what I think of whenever I talk to a New Yorker who has gone too far up their own rear end.

Is there anything that differentiates khorovadz from other kebabs in the Middle East? My family ended up in Lebanon after the genocide, so lately, I've been finding out that most of the "Armenian" foods I grew up on are actually Lebanese.

Dear Kingdom Hearts 1: gently caress you and your long movies that I can't skip. Or, rather, that Puppy can't skip. Whatever. I got bored waiting for the game play to happen, so I wandered off to read instead. It's as bad as water levels in old video games. gently caress those too. No love, -Me ---- In other news, it's Puppy's birthday. So I'm having a few good friends over. And Bears said that she can come too, which is cool. I like meeting other GWS people. You're all pretty awesome.
