We both love caramel… especially when the sweetness of it is toned down. Here, deep dark caramel has complex, malty notes from the chocolate stout. It works beautifully with the bitterness of the smoke. And, there’s this perfectly tiny touch of salt. That hint of salt works to highlight the [...]
Vosges Blood Orange Caramel Bar There are simply no words to express the absolute perfection of this bar. The chocolate is deep, dark, rich and complex. While the right bite of bitter citrus from blood orange and Campari tempers the sweetness of syrupy smooth caramel, it’s easily the closest thing [...]
Fentiman’s Shandy & Mandarin Orange Jigger We both loved the Shandy. And, the Mandarin Orange Jigger was “interesting”.
Lotsa Potato, Little Tuna It’s a good thing we like a good dose of heat because this Tunisian Tuna sandwich was swimming in harissa. In the past, we’ve [...]
Crema di Marroni, Chocolate Fig Jam, & Roasted Fava Beans Roasted fava beans, you could say they’re a slightly nuttier, tastier big brother to the soy nut. These were roasted nicely and seasoned appropriately with salt. We’d definitely buy them again. The fate of these two jars of chestnut [...]
Quicos de Chocolate
Chocolate Corn Nuts These large kernels of corn are fried, dipped in chocolate and dusted with cocoa. You might see these same kernels of deep-fried corn dusted with salt or chili powder at your local convenience store under the name of Corn Nuts or [...]
You can’t beat a store full of freshly stocked herbs and spices. From Aleppo to TienTsin, there’s a hot pepper here for you. Or, would you like something a bit more exotic like ajwain seeds, epazote, galangal, kala jeera, sumac or mahlab? Holiday season is right around the corner. That’s [...]
Everything Bagel Loaded with…. everything! We tend to neglect the bagels at Alon’s. But, they deserve better. There’s a gorgeous deep golden exterior that has a nice crunch. The insides are tender, chewy and full of flavor. Slice it open and add a schmear of triple creme brie. Now, [...]
Vosges — Woolloomooloo Bar Roasted macadamia nuts with salt, Indonesian coconut, hemp seeds and deep milk chocolate… When you bite into this rich & creamy milk chocolate bar, you might be biting into an exotic chocolate truffle. The flavor of roasted macadamia nuts, hemp seeds and coconut mingle to [...] Spicy Marcona Almonds It’s nice when a food claiming to be spicy turns out to actually be spicy. These rich almonds had a lovely dusting of smoky, fiery spices. We both agreed, a touch less salt would be nice. But, they were still finger lickin’ good. Humbles These crispy hummus [...] Homemade BBQ-grilled Burger on Mini Ciabatta Another visit to Alon’s… and we made another great find. We were browsing with some interest at a rather nondescript vacuum-sealed package of ground beef. Three-Cut Ground Beef of Hanger, Chuck, & Brisket And, one of the Alon’s friendly staff volunteered a bit [...] |
