No special Mardi Gras dinner but I did make a King Cake that I've been snacking on and probably going to spoil my dinner on. Thought it was going to be super dry because I fell asleep while baking it but thankfully it was just a tad overbaked.

I just found out Costco carries a Kirkland brand parchment paper which is awesome. I use a lot and it's like $2-3 for 30 squarefeet at the grocery store, just $6 for 205 squarefeet at Costco. :toot: I love Costco, it's so great.

Obviously all people encounter some dust and dirt but a lot of people encounter it in small enough amounts that they're not going to get their clothing very dirty or smelly on most days.

Personally my everyday clothes only comes in contact with small amounts of dust, sweat, and animal hair each day. At work I'm wearing a lab coat when I'm working with any blood or tissues. I come into contact with dirt/grass in the yard but just down at my feet. I sweat more when I'm working out but wear workout clothes for that. I don't go six months without doing laundry but if I consciously tried to delay laundering I could probably go awhile before anything got gross unless I spilled food on it.

I am sorry, but this is the first time I've come across the term 'weather-dick'..

When Nashville got flooded a couple years ago.




Yesterday we went to a friend's who had smoked large amounts of pork shoulder from the local butcher. I brought macaroni and cheese and rolls and he had a potato dish. As he was pulling the pork, he realized "sorry, there aren't going to be any vegetables in this dish, I forgot about the corn." haha. The pork was really good.

He is saying that wishing people couldn't have dogs is ironic given how just as annoying and disruptive children can be in public to the people who are not their parents. Generally when children are annoying in public you can blame it more on the parents, just as when dogs are annoying it is seldom their fault but due to having bad owners.

Most hot dogs you buy are already cooked, boiling for so long would just be boiling seasoning and flavor out of the hot dog.

The recipe does say three but lemons are variable in size and tartness so you might have bigger/more sour lemons than dino uses. If it is too sour for your taste use less next time. Add the lemon one at a time and taste.

This thing looks pretty dinky but if you're just grinding in smaller quantities it works fine, as long as you have some sort of surface that the suction works on. I don't use it super often so don't know how durable it is though.

Happy New Year GWS!

I much prefer just staying at home for NYE so we had a couple people over and I made fried chicken, creamed collard greens, semi-daalish black-eyed peas, biscuits, and pineapple upside down cake topped with boozy cherries. Had a sazerac, corpse reviver #2, Prince of Wales cocktail, and Frank Forester's Punch. Happy with these decisions.

These aren't cheese substitutes but recipes for two cheesy foods. So for the times your need for a cheese sub is due to making one of these foods, give these a try. I haven't myself but Kenji is pretty reliable for recipes so I'd trust it.

I am basing my opinion off of https://www.lovingpho.com/pho-opinion-editorial/pronunciation-vietnamese-words-phrases/ and https://www.chow.com/food-news/55268/how-do-you-say-pho/

In the first site, some of the examples he gives sounds a lot like foe to me.

There are also videos on YouTube of people saying fuh with Vietnamese people saying they're wrong.

I don't want to poo poo up the general thread arguing about pho. Let's talk about syrup. The correct way to say it is sear-up. If you say sirrup you're doing it wrong.

I'm Vietnamese, it's definitely more fuh, not foe. What you're hearing that you think it's more like foe is the inflection which you've not grown up knowing how to hear. There are certainly Northern/Southern accents that differ but they're both closer to fuh than foe, at least the first "syllable" of it. If you pronounce it slowly it can sound like two syllables but that is the inflection/tone (it looks like half a question mark attached to the o), and some people do speak more slowly in some areas of Vietnam than others so that sense of being two syllables is more noticeable to someone who's ear is not trained to hear and interpret it as one sound.

Videos of people saying "fuh" and Vietnamese people saying they're wrong are because they're saying it without the inflection. In Vietnamese each vowel sound is really 6 different vowel sounds. So if you say "fuh" without any inflection, it's wrong. If you say "fuh" with a simple upward, downward, or sharp downward inflection, you're wrong. It's a medium low dip then rise in inflection, that dip then rise is what is kind of like two syllables. There's another two "syllable" tone that is a higher tone then rising which is even trickier to distinguish.

Follow Strategic Hospitality (the restaurant group that owns Catbird) on twitter, they occasionally have a reservation open up they tweet about but I guess they'd go to their wait list first. But if you're willing to make any more impromptu trips...

Husk is indeed great and they have a great bar too. Without a reservation you can typically find a seat at the bar for lunch. Get their fried chicken and the plate of southern vegetables. Lisa Donovan is no longer the pastry chef there but when she was, the desserts were not to be missed. They're probably still good.

Nashville has had a lot of casual fine dining places open in the last few years, I'd recommend any of Rolf and Daughters, City House, the 404 Kitchen and Lockeland Table. Reservations recommended for all of them but Rolf and Daughters has a communal table that is first come first serve or can try the bar at City House. Josephine is another similar type place where you can eat at the bar without a res.

Remember that Prince's has weirdish hours and is cash only. I also like both Pepperfire (where you can also get a deep fried grilled cheese with hot chicken spices) and Hattie B's too which are easier to get to. Some people are not so big on the Hattie B's chicken but they do have the best sides and they serve beer.

Actual Food at the POP pop-up restaurant space has a great brunch. Sinema for fancy brunch.

There's a bunch of newish places I haven't been to yet: Union Common, the Sutler (more a music venue but food's supposed to be good), Adele's, Prima.

I always recommend Jeni's ice cream for visitors to Nashville but they have that in Atlanta now.

Patterson House is the speakeasy type bar that is run by the Catbird Seat people (it's right below Catbird). There's always a wait but if you're out late then head there at like 12/1am and there probably won't be a long wait.

I haven't been to Charleston Husk but from what I hear, since both are very regional ingredient driven, seafood is more of a standout there while beef and vegetables are bigger in the Nashville location. Oh, also Nashville Husk has a really good burger if you're like me and want to try all the good burgers. Burger and fried chicken at Husk are lunch time only I forgot to mention. Even though Nashville is the second location, Sean Brock is here all the time based on what I see him post on twitter and that I've seen him at the restaurant three or four times of the dozen or so times I've been there.

If I had to choose, on a Saturday I'd do Husk for lunch (or I guess brunch), then Prince's for mid-day meal (as they don't open til 2pm on Sat), then Rolf and Daughters for later dinner. Also be sure to block 1-1.5 hours for Prince's on a Saturday, there's always a line, even right at 2 when they open.

Alternatively on weekends Prince's is open til 4am. It's not considered a great area of town though.

wheez, that sounds excellent. One thing is that I would make sure to have an additional way to sear the burgers on hand. You can't searzall a lot of things at once and you won't want to get really backed up on the sliders. You could start searing them on a griddle while searzalling from the top, then when flip touch up sear with the searzall.
