It’s been awhile, but time to go with another entry in the big Bread & Soup Project. We’re on to episode 16 (can it be an episode if it’s not a video?), and the Caribbean island nation of Barbados. Inhabited since at least the 4th century by a series of Indian tribes, first from other parts of… Read More The Bread & Soup Project #16 – Barbados
Sorry I’m not posting much other than mini reviews in recent weeks – I’m focused on getting the Casa SaltShaker cookbook shepherded through it’s final stages so that it can be published “in time for the holidays”. Because I know you all plan to buy multiple copies as gifts for all your friends and family….… Read More Bite Marks #31
All meat, all the time. Well, at least for this post.

Lucas Restaurante Peruano, Sanchez de Bustamante 608 (corner of Humahuaca), Once – fairly big, open room, minimal decor. Slow, really slow service – we waited so long just for the one waitress to come to our table (and there were only… Read More Bite Marks #30
It’s been awhile since I just posted a whole dinner, to see what we’re up to. One thing you don’t know, unless you’re a close friend, or connected on Facebook to me personally, is that we’re not cooking with gas for the moment. We woke up a couple of mornings ago to find that the… Read More Not Cooking With Gas

This will be the last regular post on the gastro tour, winding up the last of Madrid, and picking out a couple of interesting meals. At some point soon I’ll sit down and put together a video of the whole trip, but that will have to wait at least a couple of days. Back home… Read More The Mid-2016 Gastro Tour #16 – Madrid, and, out…
