    Build-A-Bar: Averell Damson Gin Liqueur

    Photo by Nicholas L. HallDamn, Son!​A few weeks ago, on one of our now sadly rare evenings at Anvil, I turned to bartender Matt Tanner for some suggestions. I'd been searching for a new tipple for this column, and recent trips to Spec's hadn't really turned up much that really jumped out at me ... More >>

    What's Cooking This Week?

    Last week's menu was the perfect lead-up to the massive feast that is Thanksgiving. I spent the day itself in NJ with the best family and friends a girl could ask for.

    The Texas State Fair: Specializing in Fried Crap, 125 Years and Counting

    This year marks the 125th anniversary of the Texas State Fair, held every fall in Dallas at the wonderfully art deco Fair Park. I honestly had no idea until I went to the fair late last week, however. You'd think there'd be some more momentous foodstuffs to mark the occasion. Alas, the biggest news ... More >>

    Searching for a Slice: Lunch Buffet at Star Pizza on Harvard

    The Salsa Verde pizza is a revelation.​Star Pizza has been at the top of our pizza rotation since we moved to Houston last year, so my recent lunch visit wasn't my first experience with their pie.

    Food Fight: Battle Reuben Sandwich

    Spec's.​ When you order a Reuben sandwich, you're telling the rest of the world (or at least anyone within 20 feet of you for the rest of the day) that they, too, will be having a Reuben. It's a strong move. I once ordered a Reuben at the legendary Brent's Deli in Northridge, California, but c ... More >>

    Calming Cravings at Shiv Sagar

    Dahi puri at Shiv Sagar.​The bad thing about going back to read old reviews is that I start craving certain dishes from that restaurant. This happened on Tuesday with a recent review of Sweet n Namkin and dahi puri. This isn't always bad, per se. It's only bad when I can't get what I'm cravin ... More >>

    Shiftwork Bites: Simple Braised Sausage and Sauerkraut

    ​There's been a trend emerging in my Shiftwork Bites cooking, as of late. As the weather turns colder, I turn to heartier, simpler, more soul-satisfying meals. I'm sure you are all doing the same. For Shiftwork Bites, this is a good thing. Typically, it means meat and potatoes, frequently cook ... More >>
