I'll update this from time to time with new, notable places I've been. Patxi's Pizza. Palo Alto, CA Good place for Chicago-style deep dish pizza. Better than Zachary's? Not really but if you're in the south bay and in the mood for pizza, this one's high on my list. Website: http://www.patxispizza.com/ Posted 02.18.05 |

I don't pretend to know anything about this topic. I list here a few cocktails I've liked in the past for those equally inexperienced as me. Also a few cool places I've been along the way... << what i order >> Midori Sour Amaretto Sour Apple Martini (notice my penchant for the sweet and sour drinks?) << where i've been >> Matrix (sf) Bix (sf) The Redwood Room (sf) Bar 89 (nyc - this one's all about the bathrooms) Meet (nyc) Try this site if you're looking for the hot spots: World's Best Bars (i spent some time perusing through this as i was planning for jenn's visit in nyc back in 2003. i say this because i don't want you thinking i'm some seasoned bar hopper. the list above is really practically all i've ever been to.) << lindeman's framboise raspberry lambic beer >> Okay, so this is the beer shelley introduced me to and the *only* beer i can say i have ever liked. so here it is. I'm posting this because i keep forgetting what it's called and i really don't know where to find it. If i were to describe its flavor, i'd say it tastes a bit sweet and sour. Ha. Surprise surprise. |

Divulge my secret recipes? Yeah right. Instead, allow me to just provide links to some good resources: allrecipes verybestbaking food network Maybe someday i'll actually list some of my favorite recipes. (It's just a lot of work and i'm too lazy to do it!) |
