So is fat on fat on fat on fat on fat on fat (with a pickle) still hip? I thought it was dying out.

Dude Foods. Really? These ultra-bros are gonna eat themselves into an early loving grave. Since when did gorging yourself on greasy, salty garbage become a "manly" thing to do? I blame the internet.

There's a new burger place in Harvard Square in Boston called Tasty Burger. I will say, absolutely improbably, that their burgers are actually the best I've ever had, and there were entire years of my life dedicated to finding the best burger. It's insane. It's like Shake Shack but with the seasoning dialed back just a little bit, and with one correctly-sized patty. Like it's really remarkable. But they have this "challenge" where you try to eat three "colossal dogs' in an hour. It sounded easy, but then they described it - each dog is a pound of meat with two hamburger patties and chili and poo poo. And it's just disgusting and sad. Here's a place that turns out, as far as I can tell, the best burgers in the country (I still can't believe it) and they serve this shite up for people to suffer through. It's just... tragic and upsetting and totally beneath such a tasty place. Food is better than that.

Gordough's in Austin serves everything on a donut. Their burgers are fan-loving-tastic. The Ron Burgundy is one of the best burgers I've ever had. Roasted garlic donuts are loving awesome.

Puppy came down with something. He has a fever, is completely wiped out, and was shaking so hard that the memory foam mattress was vibrating. He's stopped shaking in the last half hour, and his fever seems to be less furnace like. Looks like I'd best put on a pot of rasam tomorrow morning. I've already soaked the tUvar daal and tamarind. Just hope he pulls through.

Main wife actually had a terrible fever last month. I dragged her to the doctor: it was pneumonia.

I wish I'd known about that for my recent trip to Boston, but the blizzard probably would have kept them closed for the duration of my stay anyhow. It sure did gently caress up most of my other plans.

Seriously though, I am a big fat guy that has eaten burgers coast to coast, and I must say that while the Tasty Burger is very good, but it's not the best burger ever. It's not even the best in Boston!!! The best burger in Boston is served at the bar at Craigie On Main (if you can get a seat at the bar). It's $18, and it's some of the best, freshest meat you'll ever put in your mouth.

Made him a giant pot of garlic rasam, which my mum used to make me when I was feeling run-down. The rice wasn't cooked yet, but I had to get to work, and he was feeling much better. His fever dropped big time, he's not shaking anymore, and it looks like his 12 hour sleep helped tremendously. He's also not in pain anymore which is very good. I cancelled my trip to my brother's house though, because I can't leave him alone like that when he's sick. His fever is low enough that at this point, I told him not to take any meds for it, so that his body can sort this mess out on its own. Apparently, the bacteria and viruses that get killed off by a low grade fever are the types that also thrive at regular human body temperature. Reducing the fever when it's mild is pretty much the opposite of what to do, according to his doctor. He did have a large bottle of OJ next to him though. Also, he took his multivitamin this morning. If he was still feeling horrible, I wouldn't have left. When I did leave, he was snuggled up with his bear, and had his covers pulled up. Hopefully he clears it reasonably quickly. He's never really sick, so when he gets hit, it's pretty major.

There's a really good recipe in keller's Ad Hoc, but it uses like 16 egg yolks. I'll have to dig it up later.

I'm craving Alfredo. The eggs are prolly why mine keeps coming out gummy- the recipe I found only uses like, two egg yolks. Maybe I should try adding some more egg yolks to it... E: NUR NUR NUR HOW BOUT I ANSWER QUESTION NUR NUR NUR. I'm hoping to make a linguine analog.

My pasta/noodle recipe is about two and half cups of flour, two egg and two egg yolks. Add a little water if needed. I do it in a food processor. Once it's smooth, wrap it tightly and let it rest for 30 minutes minimum, then roll out. Should be a little tacky but not sticky. Dust it liberally with flour when you roll if it's a little sticky.

Got my first real culinary job today. I had posted a thread a few months ago about wanting to go to culinary institute of America after my tour as a Navy cook. You all said perhaps getting some experience would be better. Hired at a local country club working in the Mens Golf Grill. Easy menu (salads, burgers, steaks, hotdogs,ect), basic bartending for 60 year old retired southern millionaires (I say boy, let me get a Jack and coke with a lime) I get some menu input. $8 an hour, %5 of %20 of the days sales and tips and medical coverage in 90 days. I only opted for dental since Im covered by the VA for medical. After my first day of 9 hours slinging Michelob ultras, beefeater and tonic and impressed my boss what I called my "Navy Burger" (cut up 4 strips of bacon, mixed it in 9oz of ground beef, some blue cheese crumbles and a little worschestire) I loved every second of it. My back hurts, feet are killing me. Made a $20 tip for a call in order to hole 11 because he wanted cigarettes (thank god I smoke) I rock in the kitchen. My boss told me to slow it down a little. I guess the Navy training had me with a sense of urgency that was not needed in this situation. Ive got to work on my tableside service, Im a bit too professional according to him (basically said loosen up a little man)
