Hi guys,
ReplyDeleteI totally love your site. It really has the essence of what a food blog is all about. Great job!
this blog was reviewed.... http://obrag.org/?p=4502
ReplyDeleteI cam across your posting on a different web page while searching for homemade pancetta. I am very impressed with your culinary adventures! You seem committed to doing things using the proper artisinal methods, and I love love that!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever ordered from MarxFoods? I've been dying to try them for my next dinner party...or any excuse I can come up with. I'm in Southern California too, if you'd ever be interested in splitting a shipment (they only sell in bulk) I'd be down!

Hi Cherie - I'd never heard of MarxFoods before, but I just checked out their website. Pretty cool selection of stuff. The next time I need kangaroo meat, I'll know where to look!
ReplyDeleteAwesome blog! What a great resource for someone who is relatively new to the San Diego area. You keep posting and I'll keep reading.
ReplyDeleteHi, using your receipes for Indian takeaway, Saag, Lamb Rogan Josh and Pulao Rice, I made a fantastic meal yesterday (Sunday), my family loved it! I served this meal with Mango Lassie and Naan bread from Trader Joe's, warmed in the oven.

Hi guys,
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog as a link, I think from Seasons of My Heart cooking school site. My husband and I have a vacation house in Oaxaca so whenever I need a little photographic "fix" of Oaxaca, I will visit your blog! Great photos, food hints and comments! Keep up the good work!

Hey guys,
ReplyDeleteI stumbled onto your site because I googled Ba Ren. I guess I should try that restaurant. Your site is great! Love the pictures and obviously the food. Keep it up. Unfortunately, I am allergic to beer, but I enjoy wine with all my food!
Wow, what an amazing site! I came across it looking for information on Charcuterie made at home, and you totally got me hooked. I ordered Charcuterie: The Craft of Salting, Smoking, and Curing last night. I am an avid home brewer (I am really getting into Belgian Sour/Funky beers and American Wild Ales) and have a chest freezer (soon to be a curing fridge as well). I also noticed you guys live in San Diego, as do I. I may be contacting you for info as I delve into the wonderful world of Charcuterie. Can't wait to read more of your posts, simply amazing!
ReplyDeletezzchef, Jeff - thanks for the kind words. Glad you are enjoying the blog!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeletemy name is Aldo Negrete and i just started my blog. Ive been cooking for about ten years now and currently working at jsix with Christian Graves. I love your guys blog, San Diego needs to be more united. Maybe we can do like a gypsy or something.
Thanks, Aldo. We've never eaten at jsix, but I've heard good things about it.
ReplyDeleteExcellent site. Can just about taste the Tuscan Salami. Was stationed a couple years in Diego, unfortunately, was at sea most of the time. Fondly remember the Harbor House (gone now), Ruben E. Lee, Mexican Village and Tarantinos. Nest time in NOLA try Rocky and Carlo's in Chalmette. Nothing fancy just good eats.
ReplyDeleteHey guys,
ReplyDeleteI StumbledUpon your blog and I love it. I'm a native San Diegan (family lives in La Mesa right now) but I'm in New Jersey going to college. Reading your blog satisfies me by giving me great recipes that are even college-student friendly as well as reminding me of home! It's great!
Mike and Sherry,
ReplyDeleteI just discovered your blog today....what a great find!!
Keep up the good work.

Happened upon your site while researching sauage making in San Diego. I'm born and raised and appreciate your love of food. Look forward to your next post.
ReplyDeleteI am reading this in Northeastern Thailand via a friend about to do in his pigs on the coast of Maine. Great site! You should see what they do to meat here!
ReplyDeleteHi there,
ReplyDeleteI've set upon a quest to try and recreate the restraunt curry in the home. Only tastier , lower fat and cheaper. I've tried a number of recipies and last night struck gold in the form of this rather charming website.
Its odd to me how such a quest could unearth such a gem - and not just in curry terms.
Love reading about your culinary exploits and also love the photos!
Love the site. thanks
ReplyDeleteHi guys, you have a brilliant site, it got me into charcuterie and so far the Italian sasages, the pancetta tesa and bacon have all been so good that SWMBO 'approved' the purchase of a domestic size meat slicer?
ReplyDeleteI want to branch out and your coppa looks great but it would be nice to have the foreshadowed recipe. Hint, hint!
Thanks so much for your efforts, John
PS We live on the Gold Coast,Queensland, Australia. Beautiful one day - perfect the next!
Hi John - glad we've been of help in your charcuterie adventures! We want to do another run of coppa before posting a recipe - hopefully sometime soon!
DeleteI have been in south Florida for 4 years and can't thank you enough for your taco sauce recipe! Am contemplating waking up my 5 yr old to go to the store right now for the ingredients. Have been looking for this for a long time. Thanks!!!!
ReplyDeletePretty impressive website with a lot of very interesting recipes. Good job!!! I will definitely "steal" few ideas.
ReplyDeleteGreat blog! Where you been?!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing more soon!
Hi Stephen - yeah, our blogging pace has slowed down :-)
