		<title>Rustic Pan Brick Chicken with Zucchini, Caramelized Onion, Crouton Medley</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
One of my favorite ways of making chicken is the pan cooked &#8220;brick&#8221; style.  You are able to get a combination of both dark and white meat, it has crispy skin and is incredibly juicy - getting  the best aspects of chicken all in one. Depending on the time of year, this chicken goes incredibly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sirloin Cheese Burger with Yam Fries &#038; Salad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
This dish was inspired by my favorite burger from a place called Zaitzeff.  Their burgers are delicious, but what really makes them special are the Portuguese buns that they use.  I have looked long and hard for these buns, twice finding substandard versions.  A few days ago I finally found them at Citarella and so [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cucumber Farro Risotto with Steamed Salmon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Farro is a whole wheat that is usually found dry and then cooked like a pasta.  I can&#8217;t possibly explain how much I love this little grain and how often I use it as its applications are somewhat endless.  If you are someone who has never tried farro, I plead with you to try it.

		<title>Meyer Lemon Tart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I made this lemon tart using Meyer Lemons which are not as tart as standard lemons.  Their skin is also deeper in shade which helps to make the tart a very bright yellow.  I love this tart, its texture, its flavor, and its crust.  I made it to bring to my sisters home for a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Poached Egg Salad with Sherry Shallot Vinaigrette</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Sometimes it&#8217;s the simple things that are the best, and that couldn&#8217;t be more true than with this salad.  Paired with a bright and tangy vinaigrette, this dish is well rounded and balanced&#8230; perhaps one of my favorites! I could really eat this dish every day and not get sick of it.  I wonder if [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ham Egg &#038; Cheese Savory Crepe</title>
		<description><![CDATA[


What can I say about this other than the fact that I love crepes - savory or sweet - they are delectable. The crepe batter recipe below is classic and fantastic. I used some Buckwheat flour in it as I like the nutty flavor and color it imparts on the dish. But if you don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Eggplant Pecan Dip with Pomegranate &#038; Mint</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I love this dip. It is hearty, warm, and comforting - all while  happening to be completely healthy  too. The eggplant and pecans work really well together, both in taste and texture, and the pomegranate and mint pull it all together. They make it pop, both figuratively and literally.  The great thing about this dip [...]]]></description>

Lately Bouley Market in Tribeca has been getting better and better. It seems every week they have a new spectacular addition. Their meats and fish case have beautiful pre-cut and cleaned pieces of meat or fish that are amazing. I have been eyeing the Milk-fed Veal Chops for a few weeks now, and I was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Orange Blossom Macarons &#038; Silk Meringue Buttercream</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Its been a long time since I have last written. In fact its been well over six months. In defense, I should admit that my absence was not a cooking hiatus, it was actually a cooking intensive - A six month Classic Culinary Arts course at The French Culinary Institute  in NYC. And what an [...]]]></description>
