tHROW SOME D"s ON THAT BIZNATCH
Also my Moms gave me a big Portugeuese copper saute pan when she moved, and my roommate went to heat it up last night but didn't cook on it. Apparently it gave a gasoline-like "off smell". Mom doesn't remember whether she'd ever cooked on it (despite having a small kitchen of copper pans) but mentioned there may be some kind of coating to remove. Any experience with this?

Wouldn't be surprised if it was covered in some sort of shipping grease to prevent oxidation.

edit: Carbon steel woks generally come with it on, you're supposed to wash it of before use.

In other news, somebody seem to have autobarbequed themselves down on the third floor, nine floors underneath where we live. :staredog: Venting smoke as well as I can, eerily the kid and the GF are still asleep - I sure as gently caress ain't taking a one-year old out into a smoke-filled staircase without good reason and it seems to be well under control.

soooooo

I was meeting up with mah girl for a late post work dinner at 9:30, and the new place we wanted try was closed. so we drove back home really hungry and frustrated and just went to our regular/favorite joint, Holeman & Finch, which is right across from our place. I decided to valet just because goddamn I was hungry and gently caress parking and walking, but then I roll up and the place is packkkked with a wait outside and poo poo. I slow-roll by the valet intending to just turn around or find some other place, and I'm looking through the window and HOLY loving poo poo ANTHONY BOURDAIN IS THERE AT THAT TABLE. put the car in reverse, valet'd that poo poo, and proceeded to watch television being made. awesome as hell, and chef was in house too.



there were already 6-7 people being really annoying and asking for photos, signatures, whatever - so I didn't want to contribute to being obnoxious, but hell yeah. he left while we were waiting for a table, and I actually ended up getting seated in his exact seat not 3 minutes after he was there.

Holy poo poo. It's the first "can't miss" auto self-insert fiction thing since "Choose Your Own Adventure" I've seen. Name? Check. Eye color? Check. Get kinky. Hope the guy/gal makes a mint. That's brilliant, but horrible.
