Sacramento, California

The capital of California is a gold mine of history—literally. Gold was first discovered in 1848, thirty miles east of Sacramento, making the early days rather lively as the town hosted miners who had hit it big. They were a boisterous bunch, spending their loot on gambling and dance halls. Today, Sacramento is still a hub of activity, shipping and processing fruits, vegetables, rice, wheat and dairy goods from Central Valley. It still maintains some of that old west vibe with its vintage buildings on the riverfront—home to over 100 restaurants. Fine restaurants can also be found sprinkling the rest of the city, offering American, Italian, Mexican, French and California cuisine.

Beef Pot Pie III

Reviewed on Aug. 20, 2008 by steph7271
This is a great pie if you have leftover beef. I cut up 2 lbs of leftover roast and put 1/2 in pie crust. As someone else had suggested, I took 2 cups of beef broth and threw in cut up carrots, frozen peas and 2 cups of frozen hash browns. I boiled it together and strained it leaving the little bit of liquid still in the pan. Pour 1/2 over meat in crust. To drippings add 1 can of cream of mushroom soup and 1 pkg of brown gravy mix. (Another suggestion) Pour 1/2 into crust and repeat last layers. Cover with remaining crust and bake. It was wonderful and VERY EASY. Can't beat that. Thank you so much!

Baklava

Reviewed on Aug. 17, 2008 by Yasi
First time making baklava...was a lot easier than I thought. I used half walnuts, half pecans, all chopped pretty fine. I did overcook the syrup a bit and after everything had cooled, it was very sticky but still tasty.
