Five on Food: Articles from the Wednesday Dining Pages

Posted by melissamccart on December 17, 2008

1) In Successful Paris Restaurant, Jewish Roots. New York Times. I wish we had one of these: “It is one of the smallest restaurants in this city, with 16 seats at tiny tables and no frills, not even flowers. Each night Mr. Rose cooks a set menu of four courses for 42 euros, about $58, nearly unheard of for a meal of its caliber.”

2) Dinner for a Dozen. Washington Post. David Hagedorn’s terrific Chef on Call, featuring Michael Mina and Ris Lacoste.

3)  Time to Clean Out, Restock Bar. Los Angeles Times.” Updating your bar is a bit like updating your wardrobe. If you’ve got most of the basics covered, you can fill in with a few key, stylish, well-made items that fit your taste and budget.” Good idea, though a bit sprawling.

4) A Holiday Dinner That’s Rich in Inspiration. San Francisco Chronicle. Go I-talian for Christmas dinner.

5) Make It Snappy. Boston Globe. Delicious bites for holiday entertaining, such as eggs on eggs.
