The blog of eating, drinking and living cheap in the District. September 17, 2008. On the taste front, I guess there was nothing particularly wrong with Kanlaya. Often I judge restaurants like this by their vegetarian menus. It isnât that hard to pump out chicken pad thai, or pad see yew, or any number of other meat dishes (of course, really good meat entrees arenât that easy). But is the vegetarian food anything more than sad bits of fried tofu with veggies and sauce? The final verdict: the food was fin...

The blog of eating, drinking and living cheap in the District. Back from Virginia, and Blogging Up a Storm. Blogs and Recipes: A Round-Up for 9/2 â. August 28, 2008. Yes, people, the state that brought us Larry Craigâs bathroom shenanigans and Bill Saliâs independent discovery oil alternative fuels in our forests. Also gave me pearl couscous in the bulk food aisle of my local supermarket, something DCâs Whole Foods, Yes Organics and Safeway/Giant pu pu platter havenât provided. 2 Tbs Olive oil. 1 Put the...

PorkChopSammiches: April 2010
http://porkchopsammiches.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 26, 2010. Let's play a game. It's called word association. Ready? Do you think of the Andes mountains, soccer players eating each other or maybe chickens being roasted in a brick oven? All good answers but not what I'm thinking of. What you end up with is a whole bunch of tender meat in a vinegary tomato sauce that you traditionally serve over white rice and french fries. It's delicious, exotic and the french fries make it delightfully white trash. Vegetable oil as needed. Prepare the bag o...

PorkChopSammiches: Going Grocery
http://porkchopsammiches.blogspot.com/2010/03/going-grocery.html
Thursday, March 18, 2010. I love food. I think anyone who spends more than 5 minutes on this blog and gets through the grammatical errors and off-color humor sees that. I love food so much that it fosters a love affair with things related to food. I love cooking, trying new restaurants, sampling local cuisines of places I visit, reading cookbooks and watching food shows. I took a few snapshots while I was shopping there. I would have taken more, but I was took busy being mesmerized by this place....Subsc...

PorkChopSammiches: Prince of Persia
http://porkchopsammiches.blogspot.com/2010/03/prince-of-persia.html
Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Shamshiry is a Persian restaurant probably best known for their humongous portions of rice that accompany their dishes. When I say humongous, I mean FRICKIN' HUMONGOUS! While the kabobs are my favorite, the menu is full of delectable items for you to explore. And they do a terrific job of explaining each item and making it sound irresistible. Example:. I mean, doesn't that just make you want to eat your screen! 8607 Westwood Center Drive. Tyson's Corner, Virginia 22182. Where i...

Follow my curls as they bounce around the world! June 30, 2009. The Adventure is Getting There. My mother always tells me, âthe adventure is getting there.â This trip to Africa certainly fits the bill. Because we only had two weeks to make the most of three African countries, Brother and I were constantly on the move. However, before I can start blabbing about our journey, Iâll give you the background. Me and Brother eating Chicago deep dish pizza. The view from the airplane. But, adrenaline kicked in on...
