Green Curry Talay – Thai Noon
Thursday, March 17th, 2011
Green Curry Talay I’m sure Portland has many amazing Thai joints, but I can’t get enough of this Green Curry Talay from Thai Noon. As you can see, it is served with a young coconut and the curry is stocked with prawns, mussels, calamari, bamboo shoots and all sorts of other greatness. And don’t [...]
Schnitzel from Rathskeller
Wednesday, September 29th, 2010
We recently traveled to Indianapolis for a family wedding. Before we went I tried to scope out some good places to eat. Unfortunately, we were so busy with wedding stuff that we weren’t able to go to most of the places (I’m especially bummed about missing Nick’s Chili Parlor). The good news, though, is that [...]
Paella
Wednesday, September 29th, 2010
Don’s amazing shrimp, chorizo, mussel, and chicken paella – holy crap this was good. Chewer: LB Chewie Chewing Location: Kim and Don’s house, Laramie, WY Prepared by: Don Editor’s Note: DAMN! Thanks for uploading LB. That looks amazing. I’m embarrassed to say this, but I don’t believe I’ve ever had paella.
Roasted Corn with Spanish Chorizo, Red Pepper and Onion… on a Hot Dog
Wednesday, September 29th, 2010
This was a good side dish but an even better relish… especially with the pimenton/red bell pepper ketchup I already had on hand, which practically mirrored the chorizo spicing. Chewer: Jason Cohen Chewing Location: Missoula, MT Prepared by: Jason Cohen Editor’s Note: Topping a hot dog with more pork is truly inspired.
Volumen Tour – Doug’s Food – The Lonely Taco
Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010
At first glance, it might appear that Doug (Volumen-2) made a rookie move here. I mean, who goes to a taco cart and gets only one mini taco? I’ll tell you who, the guy who thinks the Ribs and Chicken place is still open. Turns out, it wasn’t. But, then Doug came back to Tacos [...]
Volumen Tour – Shane’s Food – Walla Walla Taco from Tacos El Sol
Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010
Who says you can’t get a delightful mean out of a Styrofoam plate while standing up? I dunno… it sure as hell isn’t me. This was my first full meal (because beef jerky doesn’t count) of the Volumen tour. There were a variety of tacos and I asked for one of each. Sadly, the only [...]
Linguine with clams and scallops
Tuesday, September 21st, 2010
Linguine with clams and scallops in a red chunky tomato sauce. Chewer: Janine Chewing Location: My House Prepared by: Janine Editor’s Note: Alright, y’all. I’m motivated again (especially after seeing this delicious linguine) and I have buckets of pictures to go through. Expect good things coming soon!
Tamales and Huevos
Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
Sometimes Pappa needs his breakfast at 6:30pm. That’s just something y’all are going to have to live with. I don’t remember when this was, but I remember that I made it. Erika (my foxy wife) took the picture and ate this plate. It’s hard to tell under all that cheese but there is some rice [...]
South Philly Pork Sandwich (version 2)
Friday, August 27th, 2010
Another great sandwich from the Red Bird Wine Bar! Rosemary rubbed-slow roasted Pork. Thinly sliced on a roll w/ Vinegar Peppers & Greens. Oh and hush puppies!! Chewer: Big League Chewer Chewing Location: Red Bird Wine Bar, Missoula, MT Prepared by: Red Bird Wine Bar Editor’s Note: I think I was holding off on publishing [...]
Unknown Dish (possibly Tagine-cooked?)
Friday, August 27th, 2010
Yup, you guessed it. We have another mystery submission from Doug Smith. I’m guessing this one was prepared in a Tagine, but that’s about as much as I can guess. The mascarpone or sour cream in the middle is throwing me, though. I wouldn’t expect that in something Moroccan. But, this is all conjecture until [...]
