I've decided to edit out the "seed of the avocado" part.

If you fry smaller patches in a smaller pot, say, a sauce pan, you can use just one cup duck fat + one cup vegetable oil.

When we solicit recipes from chefs, we always make a point to have them adapt it to the home kitchen.

The progenitor of the Bloody Mary was Harry's Bar in Paris. But it wasn't until Harry's bartender, Fernand Petoit, came to NYC that the tomato-vodka cocktail morphed into the drink that's come to known as a Bloody Mary. Petoit added the spices and acid.

We're working on a similar guide for Indian breads. Stay tuned.

Won Kow's claim to fame is they've been in operation since the 1920's. Their menu is closer to Chinese-American food; in the last 10 years more "purebred" Chinese restaurants (serving regional cuisine, as opposed to "Chinese" the umbrella genre) have opened in Chicago, mostly north of Archer.

Also posted below, but Cai and MingHin are top-tier, with Phoenix close behind.

I'd like to work on a Chinese food crawl story about Richmond, BC. My grandma lives there. Incredible food town.
