		<description><![CDATA[So what do you say when you don’t cook much anymore? When you find yourself falling back on the now tired recipes that you’ve lovingly developed over the years, that ones that reflect your style and how you want your food to taste, but that now seem as boring as the roads you’ve driven on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mostly, we&#8217;ve been going to the Cape (Cod), but my brother offered us his condo in North Carolina and we both thought a change would be good. Not to mention water that is actually warm enough to get in. Anyway, the trip included a BBQ stop off 95 in North Carolina and then on to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This past weekend, Sarah and I spent an afternoon at the Clark with my cousin and her husband. Somewhat frustrating to me since a number of my favorites were on tour, but a good afternoon nonetheless. After the museum, the four of us went off to dinner at MEZZE (777 Cold Spring Road (Route 7), [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was sitting in SD26 in Manhattan with my cousin and her husband.  Mitch started by saying that although it was a good restaurant, SD26 probably wouldn&#8217;t make the list of the top 50 restaurants in New York. He compared the restaurants in Connecticut where they have a house to those in Manhattan.
&#8220;In Connecticut, they [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My last night in Shepherdstown, I went back to the Press Room. Comparing menus with the Stone Bistro, I wanted to eat more of the things on Press Room&#8217;s posted menus. Besides, I wanted ramps.
THINGS SAID: The hostess wanted to seat me at a two-top right next to two women in a booth. I asked [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In between the miles of duck breast and short ribs, I&#8217;ve been longing for something light. So when the server at the Press Room mentioned shad roe, I was hooked. My grandmother used to make shad roe, which she called somewhat redundently, roe of the fish (or perhaps, roe of The Fish since shad is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For those who like restaurant history, Jan Whittaker&#8217;s victualling.wordpress.com is a great slice of culinary history. Great pictures, good articles, some good research. Looking for answers to the time-honored questions, try it. Where was the Cheeseburger invented and by whom? What of the coffeehouse phenomena? The relationship of credit cards (specifically the Diner&#8217;s Club card) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I ate at Buca&#8217;s again last night and this time I ordered correctly. Clams in a tomato broth, a salad of fresh cheese, proscuitto, and arugula. The waitress dropped off a lemon slice, which complemented the salad perfectly.
Dinner was a Vitello Rosa, 2 breaded cutlets in a dark wine sauce with dried cherries and sun [...]]]></description>

The appetizers were two raviolis, with blue cheese and figs, and a Tuscan Crab Bisque. The bisque was [...]]]></description>

Galloway dispenses the usual tales of drunkards, dopers, and the clinically insane from both sides of the table as well as the kitchen.His penchant for abbreviations and [...]]]></description>
