it's a bit northerly, but I went to cinque terre the one time I visited italy (along with tuscany, florence, rome), and it was by far the highlight of my trip. would highly recommend if you get bored of big cities and just want to see some beautiful nature/small towns.

No Wave posted:I know people aren't as crazy about vizzle as they used to be but is lamb loin THE single best application of it for a lean meat? I say yes. I think I'd take turkey or maybe even good pork loin over it, but not by much. Lamb shoulder, on the other hand, is probably the single best non-crazy/possibly-fake (are ostriches real?) cut of meat for it.

Once you have the basics of it down, it's really, really simple to just use it for anything that you want, so I guess it just doesn't really come up much because it's more of a "OH HEY CHECK OUT THIS AWESOME SAUCE AND THESE AWESOME VEGETABLES I MADE ps I guess the meat's perfectly cooked again, like every other time"

Speaking of which, it looks like the Nomiku is finally available for retail. We had lots of reviews for the prototype, but they had lots of engineering issues and got delayed. Anyone know if the production model is any good? edit: oh wait nevermind, still pre-order Steve Yun fucked around with this message at 02:26 on May 31, 2013 |

360bux is still pretty steep. You can get a decommisioned PolyScience for that much. The raw parts are less than 100bux and that was me buying them one at a time, a bulk order of parts should be hella cheaper. They should be able to get it down to $150 or so, they just need to get someone like a Breville or a Cuisinart to make it.

Submitting an application for an awesome apartment that has an even more awesome roofdeck that allows for grilling. As someone who's spent 2 years in a tiny studio apartment with no outdoor space, this has me screaming like a little girl (on the inside of course).

Order the margherita well-done. Higher end, Bergamot is quite good right now. The scallops especially. There's a new restaurant Trade that's pretty good, too. Thinking Cup coffee in Boston Common is really, really good. Formaggio Kitchen is a store in Cambridge that has one of the best cheese selections I've ever seen - it is on par with cheese selections you'll see in Paris. Food-wise I don't think there's anything in Boston that you couldn't find in NYC, but you can do okay. No Wave fucked around with this message at 13:03 on May 31, 2013 |

Hawkgirl posted:Hello friends. Where do I eat delicious food on Maui and Oahu? I have never ever been to Hawaii and Hawkboy and I are going for our honeymoon. Go to Liliha Bakery early on some morning for breakfast. It's been years since I was down in Honolulu, but I'm told their pancakes are still to die for and their bakery items are pretty decent (everyone raves about the cocoa puffs). Go find a curry shop (Coco's Ichibanya or other, whatever smells awesome when you walk in, there's tons down there). Stop at some tiny shack near the beach that has pineapple and seafood and feast (you'll probably find that up towards north shore). Mr. Wiggles posted:Get saimin from the saimin cart. I know curbside soup in tje tropics may seem weird, but trust me. Do this too. And yeah, congratulations dude. If you end up hanging around Waikiki a lot, try to park somewhere like Ala Moana mall and take the little trollies around or walk. Driving is awful near any of the big touristy areas on Oahu.

Kenning posted:One trend I really appreciate lately is the greater use of the coupe glass. Cocktail glasses are really sloshy, but coupe glasses are a lot easier to use while remaining at least as elegant as the traditional cone-shape. My grandfather would have been 102 this year - he drank a martini (gin, vermouth, one olive) or a Manhattan (rye, sweet vermouth, bitters, one cherry) every day. He was particular about the glass, had to be one of these:

And since a cocktail should be ~3.5-4oz, that's a very appropriate size for one.
