Karbach
Brewing Co.
Look
for Love Street in Houston. It’s an actual address, and a Kolsch style blonde
from Karbach Brewing Co. When I got a postcard invite to a marriage reception,
I thought the Love Street can was designed by the artist groom. But it’s a
thing. There’s also a Karbach Street where a groovy brewery is available for
tours. Best yet, there’s a hip restaurant and upstairs reception area and the
food and beverages were all of the best. The blend of informal and thoughtful
creativity was seamless, beginning with appetizers in the hall that, simply
put, was an artful mountain of cheese with grapes, nuts and sundries studding
the landscape. It was a delicious conversation starter.
Our
tour guide let us taste the barley, which I noted would be a fiber-filled
crunchy topping for Greek yogurt. Later he proclaimed us the most adventurous
group he’d guided per our willingness to sample the barley.
Thanks
C&E, for the invite.
Zatarain’s
saves the turkey
They
make turkey hash after Thanksgiving in some regions. We make gumbo in Southeast
Texas. We look forward to it, plan for it and fight over the carcass as much as
the drumstick.
Zatarain’s suggests a box of their gumbo or
jambalaya mix would make it even more easy to keep the flow of leftover turkey
from fridge to table. Look on their web site for ideas. We hardly need a recipe
down here, so pick some up when you do your seasonal, seasoned shopping.
Makers
sent me some to play with so I asked my mom what she had in her freezer to mix
in. She usually is meticulous about labeling, but we had to wait for this
package to defrost to discover its contents. Crawfish! Bingo. Zatarain’s
blessed another Sunday dinner.
T-fal
PerformaPro Cookware
This
September foodies got another taste of what T-fal can do with the new
PerfromaPro Cookware featuring their new Techno Release™
technology,
which means the textured interior, little indentions in regular folk talk,
create “soft contact zones for easier food release and clean up. Stainless steel
pans look so gleaming and clean well. Surely you know someone who loves to cook
this holiday. A set of 14 is $99.99. I didn’t have some of these pot sizes. As
I write this for you, I’m simmering a pot of giant Peruvian lima beans in the
perfect pot.
