Any regular reader of blogs is familiar with the following lament - And so is the case with this blog. I’m in the middle of a project that sucks up nearly every instant of my day, and will continue to do so until April 11. April 12 life [...] …a food fight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-yldqNkGfo Jerry asks - “I have a real hankerin’ for a “Chicago Style” pepper and egg (scrambled eggs with green peppers on Italian/French bread) sandwich. Of course, this would be accompanied by a splash of ketchup/hot sauce and a dollop of giardiniera. Any suggestions?” I don’t have a clue. As eater BZ noted a few months [...] A local drinker tells me Lucid Absinthe is now available in Tampa. There was some at Alpine Liquor store recently. Here’s my review of Lucid Absinthe. So much going on, but I only have the time for a quick round-up. *** The Tampa Tribune flavor section yesterday featured columns by Jaden (Steamy Kitchen) Hair, and Michelle (The Urban Eater) and Greg (Bad Meat) Baker. Pleased To Meet You. Perhaps You Know My Name. Guinness + Leg Of Lamb = Delicious Alcoholiday by Greg [...] Laura just dropped this into the comments - Dave!! This is an emergency. A new burger place (as of Feb. 29) called Square One Burgers at 3701 Henderson. Holy smokes the menu looks fab. Got Meyer’s angus beef, kobe, portobello burgers, vegan…burger mania, I tell you. Owned by the people from Bella’s on S. Howard. I’m going [...] New Tampa Homes reminds us that “the Taste of New Tampa will be held at the New Tampa Community Park on March 30, 2008.” They also give ticket prices and locations where tickets can be purchased. Tampa I Am writes that the burger at Green Iguana “was cooked perfectly medium and about a 1/2 pound of juicy flavorful beef, topped with cooked onion, avacado, and Caribbean spices, on a very soft fresh baked bun, and came with very fresh and hot crinkle cut fries.” Sounds good. I’m adding Green Iguana to my [...] Michael thinks I’ve gone about this burger comparison all wrong. My initial strategy was to compare the same burger at every establishment, just a regular burger, no cheese, cooked medium. Michael argued that I should try the signature burger at each establishment. Try the one they’re most proud of. Considering the difficulty of finding a [...] I don’t have a picture of the burger I ate at Uncle Fat’s. I was sitting under a television set when I ate lunch, and the table of people staring at me (well, it looked like they were staring at me, though I suppose they were watching ESPN) made me self-conscious. Uncle Fat’s serves a [...] Tommy in Old Seminole Heights eats at Honey’s and thinks he may have found the best wings in Tampa. Congratulations to Michelle, (the Urban Eater), and Greg, (Mal Carne at Bad Meat)! They are starting a new column in the Tampa Tribune titled The Culinary Sherpas. Joining them in the Trib’s revised Flavor section will be Jaden Hair of Steamy Kitchen and Tony Fasto of On the Grill. Congratulations to all! Be sure to check out [...] Shells is a chain, but started here in Tampa in 1985. It hasn’t had a profitable year since 2002. The CEO, Leslie J. Christon, stepped down in February. *** Brian Ries reminds us that The USDA Hates Local Foods. *** I don’t go looking for bacon-related posts, they just seem to find me. Not Martha explains how to make [...] The Goody Goody burger vanished from Tampa forever in November of 2005, or so everyone thought. In November of 2007 the Pine Grove Family Restaurant announced that they had purchased the recipe from the owner of the original Goody Goody Burger and would start selling the Tampa favorite immediately. Tampanians rejoiced. The secret to the Goody [...] |
