WORLD FARE: Assenti’s Pasta is a fresh alternative to Valentine’s Day dining

February 5, 2019 mgardiner

The restaurant industry pretty much hates Valentine’s Day. Of course, the restaurant industry doesn’t hate it so much that they’d ever consider actually closing for the occasion. No. Instead, they passive-aggressively stuff butts in seats (albeit at 2-tops, not 4-tops), charge a … [Read more...]

San Diego CityBeat LOVE/SEX Issue: Romantic meals that offer style over substance

February 12, 2018 mgardiner

I’ve got a lot of reservations about Valentine’s Day and getting reservations is one of them. So, over the years I’ve found that instead of struggling for a last minute reservation at the typical “romantic” bistro, there are some under-the-radar places (some don’t even take … [Read more...]

RECIPE: Modernist Matzo Balls (Tomato Matzo Ball Soup with Pickled Garlic Chives)

September 12, 2016 mgardiner

Modernist cuisine—sometimes called “modern gastronomy” or “molecular gastronomy”—is, to say the least, controversial. While its most ardent enthusiasts call it magic in the kitchen and observe chefs creating dishes in this discipline must create at another level, technical and … [Read more...]
