review: a tropical umbrella…

Mango-Anchovy Ravioli Cafe Atlantico, Washington, D.C. I can’t believe that I lived in Washington, D.C. and never once stepped foot in Cafe Atlantico. Jaleo, yes.  But never Cafe Atlantico. Neither did I visit Jose Andres’s Mediterranean “mezze” restaurant, Zaytinya, which opened shortly before I moved away, or minibar, which always seemed (and still seems) like […]

review: a different side of flavor…

Corton New York, New York Every year around this time, my postman has the honor of announcing Food + Wine’s Best New Chefs. Yes, little pleasures, tiny treasures. And so it was, yesterday, after a lengthy and long-overdue date with my running shoes, I returned to my corner of the world to find the latest […]

review: eclipse…

Eleven Madison Park Last time, the earth stood still. This time, my meal at Eleven Madison Park was a total eclipse. Neither the sun nor moon disappeared. But, for the five blissful hours that my hosts and I dined, it seemed as if the whole world’s attention had been diverted to our table. Eleven Madison […]

rosemary and olive’s baby…

Rosemary and Olive Oil Cake ulterior epicure. What happens when rosemary has a heated affair with olive oil, flour, some sugar, and eggs?  She has a wonderfully fragrant and delicious poundcake-like lovechild. This rather tame story came straight from the pages of one of my favorite cookbooks – The Babbo Cookbook. In the introduction to this delightfully simple recipe, Mario Batali describes this […]

review: eating in libraries

De Librije (one visit, November 2005) “You must go to De Librije,” said almost every server and wait staff member that I have had the pleasure (or not) of meeting in the various Dutch restaurants I’ve visited. For those not in the industry (ie. the “common folk”), the mere mention of “De Librije” (if pronounced […]

review: southern comfort…

Capitol Grille at the Hermitage Hotel (visited October, 2004) I was in Nashville, Tennessee and had one dinner to “play with.” I did my research, and decided to forgo the whole “blues, country and bbq” scene. Like a true gem, the Capitol Grille is tucked away in a mine – almost. Not to be confused […]
