It would take at least one person knowing what they're doing and it sounds like you had THE expert on the premises. For me, I'm not lucky enough to know a pizza guru so I'll stick to my beer parties. Maybe one day your friend can meet mine and we can have home-made pizza & micro-brew parties. Imagine that! Merry Christmas! That sounds like a blast!

]]> Comment on The Burrito Bracket – Why I Love Blogs! by John http://www.tastychicago.com/2007/11/16/the-burrito-bracket-i-love-blogs/comment-page-1/#comment-91 John Tue, 20 Nov 2007 05:12:46 +0000 http://www.tastychicago.com/2007/11/16/the-burrito-bracket-i-love-blogs/#comment-91 Somewhat surprising, I agree. But you have to take into consideration that the hardcore burrito lovers in Chicago aren't that enamored with the SFO/Mission Style burrito. They like them, of course, because they are burritos, but they are regarded as somewhat overblown and non-traditional. Kind of how you and I feel about Fazio designs (golf courses, for those non-golf fans). I strongly suggest that you follow the link on the The Burrito Spectrum, it's more enlightening.

You make a wise observation. I kind of waffled on this when I wrote it but was too lazy to do any research. Lazy and dumb is a bad combination, oh well. Thanks for reading.

My favorirte part of your post: "the gravitational pull of the earth is too strong for the meat/bone bond." that's the quote of the day for me! I'm not much of a meat eater but you're almost making me crave them! John: I think beans are actually starch, aren’t they?

]]> Comment on Homemade – Mussels with Pernod by Jonathan http://www.tastychicago.com/2007/10/02/homemade-mussels-with-pernod/comment-page-1/#comment-87 Jonathan Thu, 08 Nov 2007 17:26:06 +0000 http://www.tastychicago.com/2007/10/02/homemade-mussels-with-pernod/#comment-87 John-- I would love this recipe. The only way I've ever made mussels was by tossing them in a pot with garlic, onions, butter, and white wine. It's pretty good, but standard, and looks nowhere as good as this recipe. Thanks, John–

It may decrease the "local" factor though, it might come from Russia or even China (in which case you might want to do a lead scan and health benefits may be decreased).
