I have two great loves, cheese and sweets. Of course, that’s not counting Jeff Martin, my baby animal-loving husband. There’s also Woody Allen and J. Crew. Okay, let’s just say I have two great food-related loves. Somehow, and I’m not sure of the reason, I fell in love with the two worst things for you. [...]

Steak. Hmm. When you think “steak”, the first few restaurants that come to your mind may be a chain restaurant right? Well, I’m here to tell you, you need to think “steak” again. But this time think local-Locally owned that is and on Main Street no less!
In 2001, Larry Dooley opened Dooley’s Angus Inn at [...]

Tulsa now has a Genghis Grill, right on 15th Street near Utica. Since this is a chain, I’ll just say a few words about the Tulsa location — such as the prices, which are evidently lower than most locations, $11 at lunch for all you can eat. It features Asian-influenced stir fries, made to order. [...]

Wine isn’t only fun with haute cuisine and fancily prepared dishes. Wine is as versatile as beer when it comes to pairing with what we think as quintessentially American food like burgers and fries, barbecue, and yes even chicken fried steak.
One of my own personal food and wine pairing favorites is actually a great hamburger [...]

Check out this delicious lunch special from Chicory & Chives. This is Cajun grilled shrimp with cheese grits. The shrimp is spicy and tender and the cheese grits are definitely more sophisticated than they seem. Loaded with flavor (and bacon), they are so light and fluffy.
