World’s Weirdest Restaurants: An Interview with Host Bob Blumer
In case you didn't know, I'm a huge Food Network fan. So when I heard that there's a new show called "World's Weirdest Restaurants" starting on April 4, I was pretty excited about it. And when I learned that I could interview with the host Bob Blumer, who is the host of "Surreal Gourmet" and "Glutton for Punishment", there was no reason to turn it down. Via Skype, let's hear from Bob more about the show.
[Recipe] Happy Pi Day: Simple Pie Crust
Happy Pi Day! Nerdy, I know. March 14 (or 3/14 to illustrate the point) is the annual celebration of pi, since 3, 1 and 4 are the three most significant digits of π. March 14 is also White (Valentine's) Day. This is more common in Asia, particularly in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and China.
Product Review: Skillet Street Food Bacon Spread
The universe presents to you, Bacon Spread. The Bacon Spread is made by Skillet, a street food company located in Seattle, which apparently also makes processed products on the side. It’s made with real bacon, rendered down, cooked with seasoning for a few hours, and pureed. It comes in two flavours, Original, and Fennel and Black Pepper.
