San Francisco, California

The City by the Bay may be the mecca for devotees of California cuisine, if you discount the fact that Chez Panisse, Alice Water’s legendary bastion, is in Berkeley. Never mind. There are enough great restaurants in this town that you couldn’t eat in every one even if you dined out for a year. From the Ferry Terminal at the end of Market Street with its medley of food shops, restaurants, oyster bar, chi chi Saturday farmers’ market (the “real” one is the Allemany Farmers Market), and dynamite water views, to the myriad choices in every neighborhood, you won’t go hungry. Check out the Asian options, too. Chinatown’s dim sum palaces such as Hang Ah Tea House in Chinatown and Yank Sing in the Financial District are winners. Head to the Mission District for the best burritos and tacos at La Taqueria and don’t whine at the line. Your wait will be rewarded with one bite of the pork tacos with guacamole. Fine dining is very fine at Aqua, Boulevard, Gary Danko, Masa’s, Millennium, Plumpjack, and Zuni Cafe.

Barbecued Beef Brisket

Reviewed on Aug. 20, 2008 by P.L.
cooked this overnite for about 8 hrs to have for lunch- the meat fell apart, so couldn't really slice it. Used for a sandwhich. Was a little dry. Used the "Busy day brisket rub" and the sauce recipe which was good. Will maybe try again and not have it on for as long. had a 3# brisket.

Baked Buffalo Wings

Reviewed on Aug. 18, 2008 by CookingMaMa08
This recipe offers a good alternative way to make buffalo wings than the traditional deep-fried. It's easy and tastes great. It's good to make ahead for parties. If your wings didn't end up with crispy skin or came out soggy, it may have to do with the wings aren't dry enough. My suggestion is to dry your wings on a drainer after rising. Then pat dry (or even squeeze a little) with paper towel. If your wings are dry enough, they should coat nicely with the flour. Refrigerate without the plastic wrap can also help drying the wings. Do not soak your wings into the butter and hot sauce mixture for too long. If juice comes out during baking, drain it. This should make the crispy skin. I might also try making them in different favors such as lemon pepper or honey lime, etc.

Great for parties. If you dont have a reason for a party make this dish the reason! We have made this for my sons birthday party every year (he is only two)for the adults. It will be a family tradition. Thanks for the recipe. You can easily make changes to this recipe, so dont be intimidated.
