I had some cod I picked up from the Farmer’s Market. It’s not rock cod, it’s a local Monterey Bay cod that is small and thin. The name has escaped me. But it’s a light, white fillet. This recipe serves 2. 3/4 lb white fish fillet 2T butter 2 garlic cloves, finely minced, mushed with…
Michael Ruhlman, a man whose books have inspired me tremendously, asked people to answer this simple question, “Why do you cook?” I love this idea. I’d love to extend that question to anyone who reads this as well. I made sure I wrote this before I started reading other people’s answers. I didn’t want to…
Kim Boekbinder is one half of the bewitching Vermillion Lies and is currently recording a solo album. Her voice is unique, her talent amazing. I fell in love with her music when I saw Vermillion Lies open for Amanda Palmer last year. In December, I saw her tweet, “It goes like this: I love food….
I have owed a recipe for this to many people for way too long. So finally here it is. It’s not very specific, it changes with the ingredients in the fridge and the garden, but this will give you the gist. First off, you need a pan that can go in the oven. Metal handle…
I went to the store to get the ingredients for this great salmon recipe in my On the Line, Inside the World of Le Bernardin cookbook and, oddly, my fish monger had no salmon! So this went from a Le Bernadin recipe to a Le Bernadin-inspired recipe. This was night two of my exploration of…
Gabriella Café910 Cedar StSanta Cruz, CA 95060(831) 457-1677 It had been a while since I’d been to Gabriella Café, they seemed to have a slight downturn in the kitchen a couple years ago, but that is the case no longer. We had an outstanding meal. Since it was my husband’s birthday, we started the meal…
Thomas Keller Kepler’s Books Menlo Park, CA November 10, 2004 The God of CookeryThere aren’t many people who can get me to leave my new little baby with my mom so I can see them. But there’s no way I was going to miss seeing the man who is responsible for the most decadent FoodPorn experience…
Lalime’s 1329 Gilman St. Berkeley, CA 94706 510-527-9838 Lalime’s is a cozy, comfortable restaurant placed right in the middle of a residential area. We thought we were on the wrong street. It’s a small dining room in an old house that seats sixty and is bright and warm. We focused on the appetizers which isn’t…
Anthony Bourdain Kepler’s Books Menlo Park, CA May 28, 2003 Tony Bourdain is out in support of his new book, The Bobby Gold Stories. He says it came from a “BBQ Epiphany.” Basically, he was BBQ-ing for his brother’s kids and getting way too much enjoyment out of it. Not to mention the fact that…
537 Seabright Ave. Santa Cruz, CA 95060 831-429-1856 The West coast just doesn’t really have good pizza…or I should say it didn’t. I’m a California girl, born and raised, but I’ve had pizza in New York and they know what’s up! I’ve settled for the left coast’s tries at pizza my whole life, therefore I’ve…
Aqua 252 California Street San Francisco, CA 94111 415-956-9662 First off, don’t go to Aqua on a Friday night, especially if you don’t know San Francisco well enough to maneuver through side streets. Traffic was just atrocious! And I’m guessing that if you go on a weeknight it won’t be as crowded and loud in…
French Laundry 6640 Washington Street Yountville, Ca 94599 March 9, 2003 It seems just silly to call this a review. Of Course the meal was fabulous! And there was no doubt it would be. This is a record of our experience as well as our meal that exceeded my already HIGH expectations. This journey began…
Oswald 121 Soquel Avenue Santa Cruz, CA 95060 831-423-7427 This is where my husband and I go for our “dates” but this time we had company…we can sample more that way! Oswald is small, relaxed (not uptight in the least) and serves phenomenal food. This visit was not a disappointment. We had to wait for…
(serves 2) Clean 20 clams (or however many you want each) Put them in a pan with lemon juice, maybe a little white vinegar (optional) and a enough white wine to almost cover clams (about 1/2 way is fine) Cover and cook over medium heat until all the little guys open fully (don’t eat if…
