Tomato — Deep Fried Crabs

Deep Fried Sweet & Salty Crabs

A visit to Sushi Yoko means a visit to Tomato. It’s a tradition for us to search out new ingredients or snack foods on every visit. On this visit, this small package of deep fried whole crabs met the “something new” criteria. […]

Sugar-Coated Radical

The Box

Could they make each little chocolate box more charming? We don’t think so. Each box comes half-wrapped and decorated with a stitched fabric label… simply charming.

The chocolates at Sugar-Coated Radical are flavored with Grand Marnier, anise, rose, coriander, crystalized jalapenos, […]

Hoa Binh Market

$15.99 Roasted Whole Duck

Normally, we reserve visits to Hoa Binh for the quick staple pantry item runs. The years have not been kind to this little Asian market. The age and tarnish of many hard years clearly touch this place. But, this old standby has a few […]

The Dark Chocolate Bar — Incredibly good!

Elderflower Syrup @ Ikea

Elderflower Drink, Elderflower Syrup, Swedish Mustard & Hazelnut Chocolate

Elderflower Drink & Syrup

We’re both fans of St Germain liqueur. (The delicate floral liqueur that hints of sweet white flowers baking in the summer sun, honey and some sort of wispy barely-there taste of citrus and lychee.) So, […]

Vosges

Vosges Gianduja Bar

Gianduja (or Gianduia) = Chocolate Hazelnut Praliné

What’s better than chocolate? Chocolate with hazelnuts… in any form. This milk chocolate bar is smooth, creamy and decadently rich. Yet, it’s still all about the hazelnuts. If nutella had a sexier, more elegant sister… it would be […]
