Bags of Flavour: August 2009
http://bagsofflavour.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 25 August 2009. Scones they're not that hard. I went a bit scone mad at the weekend. I had a craving for some warm mellow stodgyness. And decided to learn how to make scones myself. I discovered that it's incredibly easy to do, much easier than making bread or pastry. I had a look in the old dusty Delia book and also found this recipe. A scone essentially is butter, self raising flour, caster sugar and milk. The butter is rubbed into the flour until it looks breadcrumby. I had these with some cr...

Bags of Flavour: Steak at Peter Luger
http://bagsofflavour.blogspot.com/2011/04/steak-at-peter-luger.html
Thursday, 28 April 2011. Steak at Peter Luger. Peter Luger is reputedly one of the best steak houses in the world. Zagat have rated it the best steak house in New York City 26 years in a row. Its Brooklyn restaurant has been in the same site in Williamsburg for over 100 years. In 2002 they received a star from the French tyre company. Yesterday I went there for lunch. When the steak comes out theres a bit of theatre from the waiter. It's sizziling on the platter, they place it on the table with a sma...

Bags of Flavour: Lunch at Aldea
http://bagsofflavour.blogspot.com/2011/04/lunch-at-aldea.html
Friday, 29 April 2011. Yesterday I went to Aldea which is in the flat iron district of Manhattan. The French tyre manufacturer had given them one of their special stars so I was expecting something good. The three course set lunch is $24. That's about £15. You'd never be able to eat at a London Michelin starred restaurant for that price. Aldea is what you'd expect from a Michelin starred eatery. Cosmopolitan and sophisticated but as it's American still very welcoming and not at all pompous. Taking the be...

Bags of Flavour: Katz's Deli (bit of a rip off)
http://bagsofflavour.blogspot.com/2011/05/katzs-deli-bit-of-rip-off.html
Tuesday, 3 May 2011. Katz's Deli (bit of a rip off). I had a pastrami sandwich which was great. The pastrami was cut straight off a freshly braised piece of meat from the cooker so was warm and tender. It did cost $16 which is a huge amount for a sandwich in New York. Mathilde had a smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel. It was good, definitely much better than a nasty chewy old Brick Lane bagel but cost $12 which is about £8. A bagel or sandwich from a deli in New York normally costs about $5.

Bags of Flavour: Hello.
http://bagsofflavour.blogspot.com/2009/02/hello.html
Tuesday, 24 February 2009. This is a blog about food. A blog about meals we have cooked, about meals we have bought. It is about things we have drunk, restaurants we have eaten in. About recipes we have found, recipes we have invented. It is about anything else that you might put in your mouth. It is written by me, Dominic. 28 March 2011 at 22:24. I kicked Dominic and all the other contributers off as they werent posting enough and theyre not as good as me at writing, cooking or eating.

Bags of Flavour: June 2011
http://bagsofflavour.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, 5 June 2011. Dom's Bespoke Scotch Eggs. I have only eaten low quality supermarket scotch eggs with dry sausage meat, chalky yolk and rubbery egg white. While I have always enjoyed eating these substandard eggs I always knew that a freshly made scotch egg would be far better. When Dom came round the other day I witnessed him make scotch eggs and got the chance to eat them warm and fresh. The final part of the scotching process was to put the breadcrumb coating on. Dom insisted on buying the br...

Bags of Flavour: July 2009
http://bagsofflavour.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 23 July 2009. I have to issue an aplology to Dom for a comment I made about him on the Fortnum and Mason post. I described his table manners to that of a pig in shit. I was wrong to say this as I am far clumsier than him when using a knife and fork. I only said it because I was annoyed at the way the way he kept putting a sppon into my houmus when I was making it the other day. I've developed a Moroccan sweet tooth - sweet shai bina'ana kul yom (mint tea every day)! 5 cucumbers – peeled a...

Bags of Flavour: Hotel Delmano Williamsburg
http://bagsofflavour.blogspot.com/2011/04/hotel-delmano-williamsburg.html
Wednesday, 27 April 2011. If this bar was in London I don't think it would be as nice, as in London it would be full of pompous twats. In Williamsburg New York having an expensive cocktail is not just the preserve of the twat and quite a diverse mix of normals and hipsters can be found in the bar. That's what makes it good. You don't feel like you're out of your depth, you're made to feel welcome. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Steak at Peter Luger. The New York Eating Holiday Has Begun. Baked Feta ...
