Surprise on its way!

Ok well, maybe not a huge surprise to most of you that know me. But for those that don't, I can barely contain myself when I get excited so I'd probably have a tough time not letting the cat out of the bag if I saw you.

But anyway, big update coming, stay tuned :)

December Pot Luck

This post has been a little while in the making, I'd gotten into a little bit of a lazy bout and spent about a month without moving any photos off of my camera. But now they're moved and uploaded and it's time to post!

These pictures are from a pot luck I had in December, right after Frank's triumphant return from Asian subcontinent.

Atlantic Fish Co

I've been meaning to go to The Atlantic Fish Company for quite some time now, but finally made it out this past weekend! Every other time we attempted to go it was way too busy to wait. But this time, we planned ahead and made reservations. Atlantic Fish Company, by its name, specializes in seafood dishes, and all the dishes looked great. I was in the mood for scallops, and they turned out to be pretty good. They weren't very hot by the time the plates were served, but the taste was fantastic. The service was attentive, but I (and Dave) had a few gripes with the waiter because he was a bit pushy. The prices are a little bit higher than Legal Seafoods, but in general, I'd say that Atlantic Fish Co is a bit better, so worth the extra few bucks. Oh, and we did order a dozen raw littlenecks, but forgot to take a picture. Those were damn good. All in all, it was good fare!

I think this was cod with fish chowder

The Seasoned Frank

Hello Everybody! Dave invited me to become a contributor to this blog, and I accepted so here I am! Like Dave, I'm also a pretty big foodie, but I've been recently getting into eating healthy (when I'm eating at home/work). Of course, I still order anything I want when I go out to restaurants. I mean, if you're going out to eat, why limit yourself? I'll be posting lots of different things--of course all of them will be food related!

I thought I would post a couple of interesting videos I've watched in the past week or so. The first one is pretty much everything you need to know about bread, and the second is about American Chinese food. Both are from Taste3, which is a branch off of TEDtalks--a conference about Technology, Entertainment, and Design. Check out more Taste3 videos here.
