We did it again; Chives V2
You might remember Jeff’s fantastic birthday dinner at Chives in Suamico. Well, we kind of did the chef’s table there again last night. This time, with eight other people, which was a fantastic experience. My favorite course was the the warm radish salad (bottom right in the collage above). In fact, the second we get … Continue reading
Giada inspired
Of course, one of the best parts of going to see Giada in Milwaukee a few weeks ago was the cookbook I got to take home. I have other Giada cookbooks, but I especially like this one. She’d probably be offended to hear me say it, but it’s 30 Minute Meals meets classic Giada. This … Continue reading
