This would include telling many customers that they were my favorite to touch inappropriately and giving specials with no prices.<br /><br />— Joe RicchioCaligulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11751655861571894706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949270802334481269.post-85291553480957510862009-11-05T16:39:57.163-08:002009-11-05T16:39:57.163-08:00Dah, sorry, I probably should've used my norma...Dah, sorry, I probably should've used my normal username instead of the weird Livejournal one. Kudos to you actually typing out "meru-neechan" with caps no less.<br /><br />By the way, did you see the 100 rules for restaurant staffers that Bruce Buschel published in the New York Times? He just put out the second half of it. I would love to hear your thoughts on his 100.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03005373878988639268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949270802334481269.post-938675758632541092009-11-03T14:48:54.676-08:002009-11-03T14:48:54.676-08:00Meru-Neechan:

Also, I'm glad you enjoyed the Sideways talk, that was really fun! I'll be returning to perform more regularly at the Comedy Connection, and I'll post my show schedule on the blog.<br /><br />Beth Caroline: I think I need more people like you in my life.

You are so smart, very funny, know wine (you were wunderbar at Evangeline) but the mom in me ( 2 boys, both in their 20's) wants to take you home, make you eat some vegetables that are not deep fried, have you work in the garden with me (sun, fresh air...), and then have you can chutney with me...and make you go to bed before midnight. Not possible, I realize...but at least eat a salad.Beth Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12561556302215551679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949270802334481269.post-26780880868876512802009-11-02T19:23:22.407-08:002009-11-02T19:23:22.407-08:00Askann is right.

It's similar to hoisin in that sweetness, but it's a sweet red chili bean paste that's specific to bibimbap.<br /><br />And hopefully Mary ordered the bibimbap in the stone bowl - they offer two kinds because some people don't like it getting so sizzly too quickly. I personally think it's the best part!<br /><br />Joe, you were awesome at the Food Films for Sideways.

Just an off day, perhaps? <br /><br />One thing I do know is that the jjigae at HT is marvelous. I plan to eat gallons of it this winter.maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04454962310484060202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949270802334481269.post-78870259116225596122009-10-26T09:48:42.234-07:002009-10-26T09:48:42.234-07:00Yeah, they instructed me to put the hoisin on it, ...Yeah, they instructed me to put the hoisin on it, which tasted good, but I will explore the kochujang option next time if that's the way to roll.Caligulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11751655861571894706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3949270802334481269.post-4709509859420690212009-10-26T08:58:14.863-07:002009-10-26T08:58:14.863-07:00Hoisin on bimbimbap?

I am a Riesling nut and love Theise's selection. <br /><br />I am also a winemaker and made a wine that I think is worth considering for pizza called "Autumnus Red". It is at Fred Meyer Holywood.<br /><br />CheersUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16161880363582230716noreply@blogger.com
