I’m grazing. Around everything else I’m doing, I’m just grabbing nibbles here and there, some on my own, some with friends, and much of it is small, shared plate kind of stuff. I’m not taking photos of everything (some stuff yes, mostly just with the phone), I’m just having a good time. And, I’m not… Read More NYC Gems 1
Maybe I should just end with the title, because, who doesn’t like pasta and ribs? Just a quick wrap-up to dinners here at Casa S before heading to the airport this afternoon and winging my way to NYC and WDC for a week and a half. I’d actually planned to go earlier, in mid-April as… Read More Pasta and Ribs

We’ve had fun with it in the past, and although Henry tends to not like me to mess with his… Read More Our Own Peruvian Fusion
Just some lunches out and about with an eye to the possibility of future full on reviews. First off, a trip to San Telmo for a good-bye lunch with friend Ronica of Indian cooking fame as she heads back for nicer weather in Toronto and a rekindling of her divans up there. Lucky Toronto folk!… Read More Trio of Minis
