Neapolitan Pizza
Back in December I came down with a pretty bad stomach bug and couldn’t eat anything. I made the mistake of watching Eat, Pay, Love and decided I must try pizza from Naples. Since going to Naples is out of the question (for now) and… Read More
Arugula Salad (Plus Pork Chops)
Savenor’s is one of my favorite shops in Cambridge. It has a huge array of fresh and exotic meat, fresh produce and other treats you don’t find at your grocery store. It’s also where Julia Child used to shop (a plus!). I made a quick trip Saturday afternoon in hopes of reinvigorating my cooking passion,… Read More

Beef Brisket
It’s a little early for Cinco de Mayo, but I couldn’t resist making these – shredded beef with lime and avocado, posted by Saveur. We changed the recipe a bit (halved it, minus the beef, which we reserved half for another recipe), and swapped jack… Read More
