I added a “About Us” section to the menu bar. The readers should at least know who’s doing the blogging and the cooking. You’re probably wondering how much cooking experience we have and if we know what we’re doing in the kitchen. In all honesty, half the time we really do not [...]

Upon watching Ace of Cakes on the Food channel, the craving of something sweet dawned upon me. Working with limited ingredients in the fridge, I decided to make steamed egg custard. The ingredients for steamed egg custard consist of eggs, milk and sugar. Since I didn’t have milk, I substituted with soy milk and I [...]

Music helps me focus when I work out at the gym, especially with the Rocky IV soundtrack. It works just as well when I’m cooking to music playing in the background. While I don’t need something as intense as Rocky music to hype myself up when I cook, it helps set the rhythm [...]

The new Kohler Karbon faucet is simply divine. It sets a great example of form meeting function. It’s not just for looks, the articulating joints allows the user to place the spray head to be placed in any position within the limits of its reach. The aesthetic design and sturdy construction is [...]

I’ve taken a liking to the curry products by S&B.

When I was growing up, I ate a lot of braised beef w/ curry over white rice. It’s such a simple dish, but it’s the simplicity of the ingredients and the great flavor that makes it so enjoyable. Today, when I make a curry [...]

If the selection of dinnerware and serving pieces from the likes of Pottery Barn, West Elm, and Crate & Barrel aren’t trendy or modern enough for you, check out the latest spin-off from Crate & Barrel, CB2. The design of the accessories, kitchenware, and furniture speaks to the urbanite demographic. I [...]
