Chicago deep dish was pretty lame really, but I got it. Denver omelette? Nothing to write home about. Cleveland steamer? Every cafe I asked at got mad at me, guess they don't like tourists.

Sextro posted:Nothing, but. It's 2019, unless you live in the middle of nowhere you can get a cheesesteak anywhere on the east coast (and probably elsewhere, but I would just be guessing at that) and they're dead easy to make at home. Like if you're only picking a few meals to have in Philadelphia you're really doing yourself a disservice in passing up all the other options for something so easily found elsewhere. if you go further up the coast, you can get a proper steak bomb, which is a much better garbage food grinder, imo e: link for the unfamiliar http://blogs.seacoastonline.com/limelight-deals/2011/11/11/the-perfect-steak-bomb/

The Maestro posted:Jim’s Steaks is the non-racist of the two original cheesesteak places. I went in winter and it was below freezing and the line was outside around the corner. “One wit wiz and a yinglings” is the way to order. Somebody that actually lives there can probably clarify or correct if I’m wrong drat, Jim's is only open 10-1 and I wanted to slot it in for breakfast around 8:30 (  )Is Geno's a good switch? Or anywhere to get a steak bomb here? Heading to R&D for cocktail hour now!

Sextro posted:They just won an award so it might be busy, but there's a cocktail bar called R&D I think is worth going out of your way for and it's within 2 blocks of an absolute ton of really excellent full restaurants (they just have a snack/small plates menu) R&D was fantastic and so was Sarvida. Thank you for the recommendation! I thought about doing pizza after your rec for that, but the places I checked on google seemed to only sell full pies and I was solo dining.   I sat next to a guy who designed/engineered the ceiling wood slats and the array of metal poles, so that was neat.

I want one of those Amargo Agrios right now. No I don't care that it's 7:45am and I'm at work. Since folks are asking for recommendations, anyone have suggestions for Vancouver, BC? I'm going early next month for a conference, staying downtown close to Gastown.

The thing about Philly is that it’s a city of immigrants that the local populace has fully embraced. It’s not just “African” food. I’ve found Ethiopia, Eritrean, and Nigerian restaurants. They have stores that cater to pretty much most of Southeast Asia, which is a feat. There are legit South Indian restaurants. For some reason, philly is a hotbed of oddly specific regional cuisine. If you’re wasting your time getting lovely beef on crap bread with processed cheese, you’re missing out on what is seriously a wonderfully diverse food town.

True and: good Pho, good real Chinese food, good bad Chinese food, good sushi.... That said, go to an all-night diner when you get out of the bar and order a pizza steak with a side of scrapple, it's part of the Philly experience.

They’ll have Chettinad food, which is gonna have some of those spices they use more in the north (cardamom, cinnamon, clove) because it’s a wealthy region. And they’ll have some pretty meat centric dishes. But don’t let that stop you from trying their vegetarian stuff. You’re bound to enjoy it.

So I made a head cheese today. Lots of fun boiling down a pig head and getting it all ready. I stuffed it into a fibrous casing as a test because I have 4 more pig heads coming in the next few days. I would like to be able to fully stuff the casings and then freeze them. It seems like it will take 2 heads to fill each casing fully.

Eat This Glob posted:explain the leafs av then, ya hoser Where exactly in New England are you? I worked for a bit at one of my buddy's pizza shops, and in the Boston area, people like their beef dry and overcooked, and the sandwich rolls to be pale and undercooked. It's gross. A common order was "extra-well done/crispy", and then add mayo to moisten it back up. Gross! A cheese steak should be juicy and just the right amount of greasy, and does NOT need mayo. I want to blame the Irish for this, but some other ethnicities were worse; it really is a regional affliction.

Anyway, hadn't done any baking in a while, so the woman and I randomly decided to take a crack at one of our favorite dim sum items, Pineapple buns with custard. I just googled around and picked recipes. I liked how the buns came out, the filling was perfect, but the topping was ALL WRONG. Anyone got any go-to recipes they like? I want them to look like what you get at China Pearl.

Can I treat a deboned pork shoulder like a pork loin? I used the shoulder with the bone in it for pulled pork and I want to use this bigger chunk of meat like a traditional roast.

It's good if you cook it much much more than you'd cook a pork loin. This recipe has been popular, I'm sure there are better ones: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1016234-pernil
