Fox Bros. BBQ Smoked Corned Beef

Smoked Corned Beef, Grainy Mustard & Onions on Texas Toast

Melt-in-your-mouth tender, smoky and not just moist, but, downright juicy. This is one incredible sandwich. Even sharing, we had a hard time finishing it. Those slices of smoked corned beef are HUGE. And, the collards are great as usual.

Paolo’s — Pistachio & Cannoli

Cannoli

Creamy, sweet, deliciousness with little bits of chocolate covered cannoli shells thrown in to make this utterly addictive. But, even the small cup gets a bit too sweet by the end.

These brightly colored balls gilded with silver have a soft doughy texture… not unlike play doh. But, it’s a tasty play doh. There seems to be a note of saffron, ghee and some other floral note. It’s the subtle […]

Vincent Bakery Cafe

Chestnut & Black Sesame

This is a favorite combination of ours. Chestnut and black sesame. The sweetness of the chestnut is the perfect companion to the dark nutty, smoky flavor of sesame. And, the pastry dough is tender, caky and buttery. This is one yummy pastry. Love it.

The Goods @ Mediterranean Bakery

Green walnut preserves, date molasses, carob molasses and two ma’moul cookie presses…

This is just a small glimples into the three rows of dry and canned goods offered at Mediterranean Bakery. They also have three refrigerated cases with cheeses, double cream, yogurt, yogurt drinks and an assortment of […]

Mediterranean Bakery & Sandwich

Lovely and delicious, shreds of crispy dough are stuffed with pistachio and drizzled with honey. The nutty richness of the pistachios keep this pastry from dipping into the too sweet category.

Each nicely charred piece of tender lamb on the kabob has a touch of […]

DBA BBQ

Bacon wrapped Shrimp

These little bacon wrapped shrimp were tasty. But, we were hoping for something with more toasty, charry bits. We would’ve preferred less bbq sauce, too. The bbq sauce almost buried the taste of the shrimp.

Humbles & Nuts

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.

Mozart Bakery

Pumpkin Manju

Sweet pumpkin shines. It’s rare that pumpkin is showcased without the assortment of sweet spices that accompany it in one form or another. It’s refreshing to savor the simplicity of sweet pumpkin and nothing more.
