We’ve got a pretty cool city. 20 years ago, that wasn’t the case. Not that we were uncool perse, but we lacked any sort of “destination”. For instance, downtown wasn’t a place you wanted to go. There wasn’t much to do or see and it was sort of…well, depressing. But over the past decade or…
Greenwich Village Food Tour with Foods of NY Tours
One of the BEST ways to get to know a new city, especially if you like food, is to do a food tour! A food tour can even be a fun way to get to know your own town better and try out lots of new-to-you restaurants. In fact, I got to do just that…
Hilton Head Island: Where to Eat
As I mentioned in my Beaufort post about Old Bull Tavern, anytime we travel we are adamant about researching local food spots, where to eat and what the best thing is on the menu. I want to know what food I just can’t miss when I travel to a new place. Usually when I head back…
“Restaurant” Pancakes
First thing’s first… Ahhhh….that’s so much better. Now, where was I? Oh yes, the pancake. Is there a more simple breakfast pleasure? To me, pancakes mean Saturday morning.

Homemade Butter
Making homemade butter is surprisingly simple and easy, especially if you have a KitchenAid Mixer. Here we were, sitting in our PJ’s watching Alex Guarnaschelli on her show, ‘Alex’s Day Off’ and she just “whipped up some homemade butter” Of course she did. She’s an awesome chef. But after watching her make it, we said…
Ice Cream Pie
What to do with that big pot of molten chocolate from last week’s post? Make an Ice Cream Pie, of course. This is a very simple recipe, but makes for a crowd pleasing dessert, unless you are lactose intolerant. If that’s the case, then I am so sorry for you because you are missing out….
Homemade Chocolate Fudge Sauce
This recipe comes from my grandmother, my mom’s mom, who probably got it from somewhere many many years ago. I just remember it as her chocolate sauce as part of her Ice Cream Pie. She had two desserts that I begged her to make all of the time – one was a simple no-bake chocolate…
