Favourite food memories as a child: Being in my Baba's kitchen, pinching pyrohy and stirring steaming vats of jam.
Favourite food memory abroad: My first meal in Paris (my first meal outside Canada, in fact,) was a full fondue. It was the most interesting hybrid of a place, all of us reclining on chaises and finishing our meal with fruity shisha and surreptitiously refilled glasses of wine. Favourite food memory under duress: After surgery last year, they wouldn't let me leave until I'd eaten. I stared disconsolately at the toast, which celiacs can't eat, and my mother went and bought those Chapman's ice cream cups. I ate two in a row, having fasted then for over 24 hours, and the nurse came in. Oh my goodness, they tasted so amazingly good, and I was still eating as she said, "You've eaten all that ice cream? You're going to be sick." I pointed my spoon at her in my drug haze and said, "You don't know me. I like to hang onto my food." |

A clean and well oiled grill is a happy grill.

So true. The next time that I grill for 100 people I am going to come looking for you. It all sounds fun until they all come back for seconds and my arms start getting grilled too! lol

I'm less of a foodie and more of an eater.
Looking forward to what everyone comes up with. In the meantime, I used to love going to this restaurant when I lived in WA. They have their own brewery on site and made a most delish warm spinach salad, which I don't think they carry anymore. I'd be sad, except I'm not there anyway, so I'm not. http://www.silvercitybrewery.com/ |

Wherever I go I can find a dish that I will enjoy and miss. Funny how many times spinach salad has come up as a topic in conversations with friends. Must be the dressing? A lot of people use bacon in the dressing. I do a spinach salad with soy, rice vinegar, fresh ginger, fresh garlic, a little toasted sesame oil and a little sugar. Then again I m in love with Asian flavors so that dressing could top many dishes and I would likely enjoy it!

One of my favourite food memories is the first time I visited my brother in Europe, he was living in Frankfurt at the time, we went to the corner grocer and bought bread, cheeses and meats. They eat that for breakfast.
My favourite was the Quark cheese (with herbs) on their wonderful baguette bread with a slice of salami. Oh my god food is so much better in Europe. I was hooked and now whenever i visit my brother he knows to have Quark and Salami for me. Yummy That and Lamb in Barcelona, any restaurant. I don't know why they do it so well, but they do. Ok, and the ice cream from the street vendors in Vienna. And the chicken donair at the Amsterdam train station. And the salami and spinach pizza anywhere in Germany. Have i mentioned how much I like (good) food? And Europe has some of the best. Although my mom made awesome pyrogies.

Foodie here but also on the SUPER healthy side of things. Portobello mushrooms with herbs, spinach and light cheese, broiled, delightful! We made a pasta dish this week, small beans, pesto, mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes, angel hair and some parmesan arregiano, it was SO good and light. Fun thread!

Sun - thanks for the spinach salad idea. I'll definitely try that one. One of my all time favorites is my Mom's chicken and dumplings! All from scratch and definitely not the healthiest, but they sure do stick to your ribs!!

I love food...new tastes, new textures and flavors...
I will eat anything - especially if I do not have to make it. My top restaurants at the moment: One Twenty Six in Iowa City. It has a beautiful duck entree (cooked to order) with spargus and jasmine flavored red potatoes. Lovely from beginning to end! Also has my favorite pulled pork cuban sandwich. Devotay, Iowa City, has great tapas! Locally owned and supplied with local organic produce. Best fish tacos in town. Light, buttery and crispy. Lincoln Cafe, Mount Vernon, IA - has an incredible filet mignon. Locally farmed beef and vegetables. I can go on... but ... if I smell Feijoada... it's all over. My soul melts. |

I truly pity anyone that would try to get between myself and my ice cream. What kinds of jams did you like most as a child? Recalling that I adored jam when I was young.

![]() I love to cook! Problem is, I can only cook a few things other than my native Tex Mex cuisine--a little Italian, a little American comfort food--and I cannot document recipes because I was taught by my Guelita who didn't use measurements either... That said, even if I follow a recipe I will modify it and hope for the best...lol...don't ask me why, maybe rebellious? This is a great thread idea, Sun! I could use a little sprucing up in the kitchen department. I'm hoping to impress my guy with my skills...In the KITCHEN!

Did you grow up in the Southwest? I love the cuisine of that region which is where I am as I type this. Roasting fresh chili's is my favorite way to bring flavor to the foods that I enjoy the most. Impressing your guy in the kitchen sounds great to me! LOL @ rebellious...sure why not? I always say "make it your own" and that is the way to do it. Looking forward to seeing what this creative talented community brings to this thread!
