I think the disdain for Olive Garden—and all family-style chains—stems from those ill-informed people who (usually loudly) proclaim it to be some kind of authentic, revelatory experience. Or because some unimaginative guy in the party (Uncle Jeff) picks this place to eat because it’s “safe” when there’s 10 other…
Add cranberries to it. Apple-Cranberry pies are great in the fall, and I love that mix of sweet & tart.
Places in New England make it on the regular in the fall—I got mine from Bishop’s Orchards in Connecticut—but I wish it would be made regularly and not by special order in other places.
To be Frank, I won’t Dane to answer you.
This is where I’m hoping you can help, SW. If we could eat here, pay the fee, and hold up our end as good customers, great. If not, I think this place is out of our reach for now.
Tiki and Ronde Barber (SPOILER: they harness the power of family and hard work to achieve their dreams)
I had a great blackjack run in Vegas, netting about $350. During the run when I was up $200, my friends told me I should tip the dealer. I gave her $20 because I was so excited to be winning and was afraid a larger tip and a bad run would wipe me out. As I cashed out, I realized I was being a silly dummy and tipped…
From what I remember from my Football Manager, players younger than 21(?) don’t count against the roster total.
So if the Juve midfield gets devastated, they’d have to call up their academy players to fill in until the Champions League rosters can be re-jiggered in February after the January transfer window.
This sucks…
Andrew Luck’s retirement will only increase the primal urgency of Football Men to find True Football Believers to play football, so that they don’t ever question their faith in it.
Allison wins for me by virtue of the The Aviation, though I really like French 75 as well—two of the Round 3 choices were spectacular.
But if we’re giving support to trashy, trailer hubcap margaritas, where’s the love for mojitos? Yeah, it’s more ice, sugar, wet mint leaves than anything else...but dammit, it’s…
Watch his staff print out the headline to send to the First Lady’s office whenever he can’t get off of Twitter.
To conduct this taste test, I enlisted the help of my friends Lisa and Marcus—I needed to use their microwave.
Yeah, the owner should have responsiblity for that spill, especially since as chef he’s in charge of back-of house. Plus, these things happen in busy kitchens during prime, expensive wine-serving hours. and should just be written off as a business cost.
Even if he meant it as a joke, the chef/owner’s being a jerk and…
Sure, I know that prices may vary depending on location/deals. What I was interested was the price premium of the Impossible Whopper, which will have a huge impact on people’s willingness to choose it on a regular basis and have spillover ecological benefits.
It’s great that your location prices the Impossible and…
Yeah, based on my experience with Impossible Burgers, I thought the Whopper matchup would work really well. The Whopper is cooked medium-well/well (similar to the requirements for Impossible), doesn’t have a pronounced flavor profile, and has a similar texture to Impossible. Should be a good fit.
Kevin, what was the…
I think this is where Maverick Carter steps in as the dean of the nearly-created University of Phoenix Arli$$ Michaels School of Sports Managementing.
Kevin won in my book, but only just by a hair. I really like sour fruit candies (even more than chocolate), so I would’ve gravitated towards sour gummy bears, sour skittles, Sour Patch Kids, etc.
On Haribo Gummi Bears: By far my favorite, but I’ve tried to hold off on buying them since there are accusations that…
