Simply Delicious… The Lobster Roll One whole lobster (shelled, obviously) is tossed in a simple dressing and heaped into one little toasty Holeman & Finch bun. The lobster was so tender it was a pleasure to eat. Apple slaw on the side was a lovely balance of crisp apple and [...] White Mulberry Preserves We found Gobal Food & Nuts a few weeks ago. And, we were happy to find a source for green almonds, high quality nuts, and preserves. Finally, we’ve had a chance to open a jar of their white mulberry preserves. And, it is unbelievably good… ok, it’s awesome. At [...] Hotate, Ikura, Uni & Unagi Sushi Yoko is an old standby that we’ve been visiting for too many years to count. The presentation is simple. But, the fish is always fresh. Oshinko Pickled vegetables Kaibashira Fry Served piping hot and super crispy, we really enjoyed this dish. The [...] Mofongo with Spicy Shrimp As you can see, the plantains are cooked to perfection. And, that’s no exaggeration. (My pictures were better last time.) The blend of crispy bits, caramelization, and creamy mashed plantain work in delicious harmony. The crispy crumbs of deep fried pork in the center are an added bonus. [...] Figs Stuffed with Caramel Don’t feel guilty. There’s a fig wrapped around your caramel. I love these individually wrapped candies. One makes a perfect little treat. Walnut! Creamy walnut pops… genius! Love them! Juice of the Cashew Fruit I’ve found frozen cashew fruit (cashew apple) on Buford Highway. [...]
Tasty Over-Stuffed Cannoli
Also, tasty… lobster tails But, we thought there was a bit too much whipped cream in the pastry cream filling. (Lobster Tails, also known as Sfogliatelle, traditionally have a cannoli-like ricotta and semolina filling. We both prefer them that way.) Both of our purchases [...] Kantola Patel Brother’s new space a few doors down from it’s old location is larger, easier to navigate, and stocked with tons of fresh, new stuff. The produce was incredibly fresh. The ginger was some of the freshest I’ve seen in a grocery store. And, the kantola gourds (pictured above) were new [...]
Betty invites you in. (One of us loves Betty. Cleary, someone at Smokejack does, too.) We found Smokejack by chance about 2 years ago. We’ve been loving it ever since. Fried Pickles We’re not usually fans of fried pickles. But, these were really good. Part of this dish’s success [...] Pearl Ku Ding Tea Rose Green Tea Both of these gorgeous teas were purchased at Buford Highway Farmers Market for approximately $10 each. Given the quantity and quality, that’s an incredible bargain. Buford Highway Farmers Market Ribs, Mac N Cheese, Brunswick Stew & Griddled Biscuit There’s a lot to love at The Swallow at the Hollow. Set down a quiet side street with a gravel path leading to make-shift parking under the trees, we feel like we’re visiting friendly neighbors. A mountain of chopped wood decorates the front [...] |
