Chocolate Makes Everything Better

Posted on October 15, 2012

This post is brought to you by Ghirardelli Intense Dark™ Chocolate. Lately I’ve been trying not to eat about a billion cookies a day.  Shocking, I know.  But would you believe that something like that caught up with me and apparently my clothes are all a bit tight?  Apparently I need to get back to…

Ad Hoc in Yountville, CA

Posted on August 13, 2012

ad hoc had to be one of my favorite restaurants in Napa.  You may be familiar with Thomas Keller, who is well known for the infamous Per Se and French Laundry.   However, ad hoc is so different from those two restaurants, perhaps only overlapping in its high quality and delicious food.

Posted on April 3, 2011

Hot Blondies Bakery: A+ Classic Brunette: “That brownie could bring world peace” I am very excited about this! Maybe it is because I got to eat a variety of delicious brownies and blondies that were delivered to my apartment. And maybe it’s because the baked goods came after being tortured in a bathing suit during…

Back to Flex Mussels

Posted on March 13, 2011

Living in NYC, we don’t go to the same restaurant twice unless it is really good.  Last time we went to Flex Mussels, we had a wonderful experience, and I have not been able to get the deep fried whoopie pie out of my head since!  So when our friends suggested Flex Mussels for dinner…
