Mystery Nosh
Friday, August 27th, 2010
Here’s a bit of a surprise for you! This mystery submission wasn’t cooked by Doug Smith…. um… but it was submitted by him. Heh. It was cooked by “Big Turtle”. I’m guessing beets, tuna and olives on this one. Everything else in this delightful-looking nosh is a mystery. Chewer: Doug Smith Chewing Location: Ron’s House [...]

Pros and Cons of Cooking for a Living
Tuesday, June 1st, 2010
So the cool part about cooking at a restaurant is you get to play around with food all day long. The bad part is sometimes you make things that are so delicious that they take a couple years off your life. The boys and I were catering a wedding that wanted a nacho bar which [...]
Deep Fried Mac and Cheese Triangles
Friday, May 7th, 2010
The Double Front Cafe, in Missoula, pretty much specializes in food that isn’t good for you (but is delicious). Fried Chicken, made to order, is at the top of their list (just make sure you have time to wait for it). The other day, while I was waiting for my “Regular Dinner” (i.e. A fried [...]
Montana’s Best Bowl O’ Fruit
Tuesday, April 27th, 2010
So, here’s the deal. My kids are fruit junkies. I’m pretty sure they’d be content to eat only fruit for the rest of their lives and any day during which they didn’t get any fruit, you definitely hear about it. As a result, when we go out to breakfast on the weekends, we usually get [...]

Whiskey Coke, Shrimp Cocktail in Las Vegas
Friday, March 12th, 2010
So, I was going through my phone trying to make sense of all the pictures of food that Doug has texted me, when I stumbled upon this photo. So, while I wait for Doug to tell me who made all the food in the pics he sent me (I’m preparing for a Chew Time “week [...]
Marinated Pork Lettuce Wraps
Monday, March 8th, 2010
My wife and I (and two good friends) went out to the Red Bird Wine Bar, here in Missoula, for a belated work-related Xmas deal. I got the Italian Sandwich (that Lexie Chew Chew posted here on ChewTime.com) but my wife got these tasty looking Pork Lettuce Wraps. Yup, she’s definitely going to outlive me. [...]
