  1. I just HAVE to mention that I stood slack jawed in amazement outside a Starbucks in the middle of the Forbidden City in Beijing recently....Jesus, Mary and Joseph what were they thinking????????

    Unfortunately I think I know the answer :sad:

    You have to admit, it IS rather inconspicuous. There's no exterior denotation for it, and it's just a counter and a refrigerated case after you do walk in.

    On the other hand, in China, at McDonalds, they have this spicy chicken sandwich, made with thigh meat. The KFC there has something similar. I ate so many of those while I was there.

  2. a thick layer of peanut butter, maybe a little honey with it. though, i prefer this untoasted.

    sunny side up egg, with the gooey yolk oozing into the bread at the first puncture, with a dash of tony chachere's. drool.

  3. I was invited to a birthday party and brought these along:

    Mushroom, roasted red pepper and feta tart

    this is my kind of birthday party!

  4. thanks to this thread, i have to stock up on tater tots every time i'm at the store.

    those chili cheese tater tots look soooo delicious. all it needs is a dab of sour cream and some diced green onions.

  5. now those are some ideas! divalasvegas - oozy egg yolk on toast may be one of the greatest foods ever. i wish all this stuff took less prep! maybe i should just allocate myself more than 45 seconds to make lunch in the morning.

    i'm not proud of my lazy sandwiches. :sad: i try to make up for them with nice dinners and weekend cooking splurges.

  6. So today, I wanted to make a sandwich. As I was about to start, I lost all culinary inspiration, and stood there wondering what to put in it. I always seem to make the "same ol same ol" deli meat and cheese or tuna/egg salad or grilled cheese.

    What's your favorite sandwich?

  7. I re-discovered my love for Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I just stand there at the kitchen counter with one of those Costco-sized boxes, munching away.

    i heart cinnamon toast crunch. i'm appalled it took to pg 3 before i saw anyone mention it! cinnamon toast crunch flavored milk is soooooo delicious.

    As much as I like sweets, I can't stand sweetened milk. I used to dump my sweet milk in my sister's bowl when she wasn't looking. Now, I just eat my cereal plain. :smile:

    Wow, that's quite interesting. I'm definitely not a big sweets kind of person, but there's just something about Cinnamon Toast Crunch milk that just makes my day. Granted, I haven't had it since I was a kid, so who knows? Maybe tastes have changed.

  8. ted's bison burgers are quite good. and it always amazes me how little fat it has and yet still be so so tender and juicy and delicious.

    i know it's not very culinarily chic, but it's hard to go wrong with a waffle house. triple hash browns, scattered, smothered, covered, and topped, with a dash of tabasco and heinz 57 really makes my day.

  10. little bowls = more to wash. :biggrin:

    i try to minimize the amount of stuff that needs to be washed when i cook. my mise (when it does happen) usually comes in the form of a whole bunch of ingredients in one big bowl that gets dumped in all at once. if it's just small stuff, i just leave them in little piles on the cutting board, since the cutting board is already in use. man, i'm really lazy.
