Food lovers in Bandung have long come up with innovative gourmet surprises -- ranging from steamed brownies or fried cassava with cheese, to a "recent" and popular culinary innovation; grilled sandwiches and burgers. People are willing to queue for hours, even in the scorching sun, to get their hands on Bandung's tasty treats. Take steamed brownies, for example. As there are a great number of buyers, customers often have to take a queuing number first and then join a queue, sometimes for hours, before they can finally buy the brownies. People have even been known to leave home at midnight just to try the famous perkedel, or fried mince-meat balls. In short, people are willing to do just about anything to get their hands on some of Bandung's delicacies. The spreading popularity of these uni
I finally got around to eating at L’Académie this Friday.

Not content with devising the Russian Reading Challenge for this year, Sharon at Ex Libris has created another great but completely different challenge, one that I was powerless to resist: The Soup's On Culinary Challenge. The challenge is to review six cookery books in a year, starting from April 1st. You don't have to read them cover to cover but give an impression of the sort of book they are. And, since we are talking cookery books here, you also have to make at least one recipe from them. That was what swung it for me, as I am slipping back into prepacked ready meals already this year and need a push to get creative - and less lazy- in the kitchen.I love food and I also love to cook; little makes me feel more contented and at peace with the world than baking a cake.

Readers of my blog would have read about Michelin awarding Tokyo an astounding 191 stars (posted here).Some interesting nuggets from this Newsweek article:About a third of all TV broadcasts in Japan are devoted to food. Tokyo has 160,000 restaurants, compared with 13,000 in Paris. Japan food bloggers are hugely prolific, cataloging their meals in painstaking detail (and, often, with cell-phone photos).

When I was a kid, going to the airport was about a cool as it got.

For those of you may have taken the time recently to notice, you’ll notice that LSG Sky Chefs has become one of the most consistent logos found in the food industry, and so I was happy to see the following article entitled LSG Sky Chefs expands in China with Partnerships in Kunming and Lanzhou.
With China’s air traffic increasing at a torrid pace, I guess it should come as no surprise that LSG would see China as a potential, if not massive market… and lord knows airline food here needs help as well.
Where I hope this investment gets interesting though is that Kunming and Lanzhou have some of the most flavorful food

This is supposed to be a recipe for chicken a la King taken from a brochure of the 1960s, obtained from the Brighton Beach Hotel, where this dish probably originated."Melt 2 tablespoonfuls of butter and then add 1/2 of a green pepper shredded and 1 cup of mushrooms sliced thin.Stir and cook 5 minutes and then add 2 level tablespoonfuls of flour and 1/2 teaspoonful of salt.Cook until frothy and then add 1 pint of cream and stir until sauce thickens.Put this all in a double boiler, add 3 cups of chicken cut in pieces and let stand to get very hot.In the meantime, take 1/4 cup of butter and beat into it the yolks of 3 eggs, teaspoonful of onion juice, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoonful of paprika.Stir this mixture until the eggs thicken a little. Combine the two, add a little sherry and finally shredded pimiento before serving on toast."
Makes 4 servings (1 cup each serving)Ingredients1 lb butternut squash1 tsp olive oil 1 cup onion, thinly sliced3 large mushrooms thinly sliced1/4 cup low sodium chicken stock1/2 tsp tarragon (fresh)1 Tbsp parsley (fresh), minced1 1/2 tsp chives (fresh), snippedDirectionsPeel the squash, remove the seeds and cut into 3/4 inch cubes. (To make peeling easier, prick the squash with a fork and microwave on high for 5 to 10 minutes.)Heat the oil in a large nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat, and add the onions and mushrooms.Saute for about 5 minutes or until the onion softens.Add the squash and nonfat chicken stock.Cover tightly and cook until the squash is tender, approximately 20 minutes. (If you are using dried chervil and/or tarragon, add these after 15 minutes of cooking.)Remove the cover, and cook a minute or two longer to evaporate most of the remaining liquid. Sprinkle on the parsley and chives, and also the fresh chervil and/or tarragon, if used.
The first chef to find his way to Food Network, and make it big on national television is none other than our dear Mr. Emeril Lagasse. The king of the Emeril Empire, he is no longer a chef, but is in fact a definition of celebrity chef and has made a significant contribution to how the world sees gourmet food, restaurants and culinary professionals. He is among the few who make watching cooking shows everybody's worth, not just for the food, but for the lively environment that he creates by involving his audience in his shows.
