The Tulsa Food Blog

I was very excited to try Nibbles Cafe on Memorial. I have heard good things about their cakes, especially wedding cakes. It was mid-week, and my friend and I wanted to meet up for lunch. When it is a “girlfriend lunch”, I enjoy going to cute place with a lot of personality [...]

This week the thrill of the “hunt” dominated my Angolan feast. Baby Ava and I spent more time hunting for ingredients than cooking or eating them. Other than my normal shopping trips, I made several runs to specialty shops to find banana leaves, palm oil, and prawns. Lesson of the week? Call ahead to [...]

Spring is but a few weeks away and I am so ready. I’m ready for spring skirts, shoes and food. I have actually been ready since the first warm day in January. That was when I made the mental switch, but now it’s actually really close, just days away. Spring is great because the food [...]

The Wild Brew beer will be available in 22 oz. bottles beginning May 3 throughout Oklahoma and Western Arkansas.

“Immediately following the successful [...]

Some will look at this beautiful display of glutton with disgust and others will want to eat it off the screen… I am an “other”. I would like to introduce you to a creation that has made me a happy man many-a-mornings. This I call the bacon sausage waffle with butter on top. You [...]

There has been some news floating around in a local daily newspaper stating that Fire Rock Grill at 71st & Memorial was closed.  We just got back from lunch at Fire Rock and let me tell you that it was delicious and certainly not closed.  If you read anything stating that Fire Rock is closed, [...]

Spring is in the air, and for me that means more tacos are going to be entering my mouth. I hope you are in the mood for tacos, because what I have for you is a Tulsa taco update. Now this aint no Taco Bueno taco, and this definitely aint no Tex-Mex that [...]

The term “Grinder” can be traced back to the East Coast, where, during WWII Italian immigrants setup sandwich shops close to the shipyards. Their freshly baked Italian rolls were filled with generous amounts of meats and cheeses and were then baked and garnished with lettuce and tomato. These super-sized sandwiches were a favorite of the [...]

Local Table is one of our favorites.  In our hearts, they are most famously known for their Sunday evening wine and appetizer specials.  We like to go in with friends and order wine and appetizers off of the bar menu.  The appetizers are a good size,  2 of them make a good meal.  Running at [...]

For four years I was in a shopping coma. Each week I drove to the nearest grocery store and wandered the aisles, filling my shopping cart with the same items as the week before. Milk, yogurt, iceberg, ground turkey log, etc. Boring.
Then I started the Global Table project. In just over a month I [...]

This week I decided to attempt the impossible. I know what you’re thinking “But Molly, you already attempted the impossible when you made macarons”. I know, I know. This is partly true. Macarons are a pass or fail creation. Either you do them the right way or they’re a complete disaster. There’s no such thing [...]

Some food items may be a little harder to justify traveling long distance to indulge on. There are only a few dishes I will travel for if I hear they are the best in the area. Rarely do I get very excited about going across town for a hamburger because there are so [...]

Piatto Cucina Italian Restaurant will be opening its doors Monday (March 1st)  for lunch!  Owners Marcia Harris and Angelo Amabile were gracious enough to invite us in for a “sneak-peek” and boy were we in for a surprise! Piatto is a celebration of tastes in Italian cuisine. The standard here is “to do as little [...]

Plenty of meals are ruined by cooks trying too hard. In a fit of “inspiration” they put together weird ingredients, hoping to win their customers over with novelty and excitement. Unfortunately, at the end of the meal the customer is just left feeling confused, even cheated. Garlic ice cream, anyone?
There are rare instances, however, when [...]

The much-anticipated release of six packs from Marshall Brewing Company continues with Old Pavilion Pilsner now joining the McNellie’s Pub Ale on liquor store shelves throughout Oklahoma.
Marshall Brewing Company began installation of its fully automated rotary fill bottling line in May 2009. Perfecting installation and bottling combined with an ever-increasing demand for product on draft [...]

I have this strange urge to take on projects or responsibilities I know that I am only half-capable of doing, just to prove to myself that I can do them. The harder the project and less qualified I am, the better. I love challenging myself with difficult baking tasks. For instance, two winters ago I [...]

Some great things are in store for March. When it comes to the finest beer in Oklahoma and some of the greatest food around, there is only one place to be.

On March 31, 2010, Marshall Brewing and Polo Grill are teaming up to bring you a menu of excitement that is sure [...]

Sushi is my favorite food, so anytime I hear of a new sushi place opening I always want to try it out. Recently my husband and I visited the new Osaka in Broken Arrow. We originally went to try the hibachi, and our first visit was New Years Eve. They had apparently [...]

If Stonehorse Market opened in New York City, there’d be lines around the block, all day, every day, people waiting, clamoring, begging to get in. It reminds me of Christina Rossetti’s haunting, powerful poem of love and addiction, Goblin Market. People who have tasted fruit from the goblin store pine and pine away, dwindle [...]
