asked Tony Bourdain , when he was in Austin, if he has ever eaten at Rao's. He got this funny look on his face and said, "That's the only place in the whole world where I can't get a reservation."
What Tony had to say about the place we took him to in Chicago...
Jesus! WHO EVER discovered that place??!! What a find--maybe the most amazing fucking meal I've had since..since..I dunnno. It makes Rao's look like Carmine's for accessibility. Food like that in the back of what? A wrecking yard? The "dining room" looked like a half a Conex container-andI KNOW that the bathroom I hadda walk all that way to was a fuckin PortaSan! -
only bought four for the room.
Right again.

I have some lovely fresh Mahi Mahi (Dorado, Dolphin FISH) filets from a fisherman friend. Would putting them in a shallow pan in a very low oven with the butter accomplish the same thing? I am really wanting to try this.
Do this: Crust the mahi mahi with crushed macadamian nuts and saute in butter/evoo. Thank me later.

After all the joking about Keith Famie's Adventures in Cooking...I do own it. I own all three of his cookbooks. So far everything I have made has been exceptional. I have yet to go wrong with one of his recipes
Someone MQ this person.
Just kidding! Im sure Keith would really appreciate your complimentary comments...I just cant get myself to buy those books...

This is sad. I hope he will be ok. Can you provide an address if someone would like to send a contribution that is not in DC...
I recall when Chef Patrick Clark passed away with no insurance for his family and a book was issued to help the family....Very sad...

We were offered some Monkfish liver today from my main fish guy, and as i had read about it here, i said hell yeah, send us a couple of lbs to play with.
David found it in the fish fridge, and sauteed some , served it on some mixed leaves, splash of balsamic/EVOO and some crisp parma ham.Tasted pretty dam good
Sounds awesome!
Did you have it as a featured item on your menu? Or was this just for your greedy little appetite? I thought the CUSTOMER comes first!

Ditka's Dogs were good, too..do they still have them in the burbs?
Not related, I dont think.

Rao's website in case you havent seen it...

Arent these almonds more on the whiter side?
Anyway I was at Whole Foods today getting my Eastside Cafe Pizza but I will go back tomorrow and get those nuts. Thanks for the tip!

This thread was originally titled... 'What to stock your panties with'...

I think they are pretty good although I like those salted roasted almonds the best...

Cooking may be a good thing for them to do more over the summer.
Im sure they will be looking forward to that!
