Sous vide (pronounced sue–veed) is French for "under vacuum". In culinary terms, sous vide is a cooking method in which food is vacuum sealed then immersed in a water bath and cooked at a very precise and consistent temperature. Sounds simple, but there's much more to it than that. ...

Nice job!! But a lot of emphasis on chamber Vacuum.. which looks like a costly investment. Did you get a read on what a food saver would do?

Gastronomic Fight Club Bianco has closed. I thought this was the strongest of the Flagship Restaurant Group's concepts, though I didn't dine there very often.

Flagship Restaurant Group has decided to close Bianco to focus on other endeavors. We regret any inconvenience this has brought about to you. Since opening in fall 2006, Bianco has been a frequent dining spot to many, and we thank you for your patronage.

It was tasty but spendy. It was so nice to experience something italian other than lasagne or meatballs!

With the exception of the peanut butter (which I think they threw in to make it harder to eat, not for flavor), I think it sounds DELICIOUS!!

I'm interested to know, what other places serve frog's legs? I just found out Brother Sebastian's does and I think Le Voltaire does as well at times.

Maybe some places in Gretna or Elkhorn, cause I know that McKenna's in Gretna makes a mean patty melt and pork tenderloin.

I have been out of the loop; have you reviewed Dario's brasserie yet? I thought the food was good but not outstanding. A bit over-priced relative to the quality.

Those are some scary looking bees. How long are you guys staying in that region of the world?

Hey GFC! They're actually the most docile of all bees -- otherwise we wouldn't have gone out into the middle of no where to meet them. We were on Kangaroo Island for three days and are in AUS for another month.

Paul Bacino Pok Chips:

Hey these aren't Pork Chops!! Check these out!!



This lunch , I made a marinade of lite soy sauce, lime juice, Mexican
brown sugar , sambel paste, to that I added green scallions, slice of
ginger, a spot of cilantro.. allowed this to cure till dinner ( 4 hrs )
!! When I got home I strained the mixture and added... it to my ahi ( to
cure for 30mins ).. I then took Mission flour tortillas cut into 1 1/2
rounds and baked them 5-7 mins at 425.... with that ...i also made a
lemon lime aioli w/ a touch of red devil..too



To plate: Take the chip.. add the aioli ( holds the Pok well ) top with
the POK ( ? ), then serrano bits and black sesame seeds!!



For this I served the Rhys 06 Santa Cruz PN.. great crunch in the chip and nice appetizer or meal
