Rižot = Risotto
Thursday, July 19th, 2007In addition to the Adriatic Sea, coastal Croatia shares centuries of history with Italy. That said, it won't be surprising to learn that Arborio rice is prepared and enjoyed in much the same way as Italian risotto in Dalmatia. In fact, a few recipes are practically identical. One of the ...
Say Yes to Quack
Monday, December 25th, 2006I enjoyed one of my favorite meals at a favorite St. Louis restaurant the other night. Next time you're in Missouri's Gateway City, you'd do well to visit Wei Hong Bakery & BBQ (3175 South Grand Avenue, 314-773-8318) and order the roast duck on rice, a testament ...
The Last of the Yesterturkey
Monday, December 4th, 2006It ends today. Aw, sweet geez, it's fried slices of an extremely dense soufflé made from The Last of the Yesterturkey, unused herb stuffing nuggets, cheddar, cream cheese and many eggs. The very least I could have done was use turkey eggs, but I couldn't find any. Why don't people eat ...

Thursday, November 23rd, 2006It's Thanksgiving in America. It's a day on which we give thanks for the blessings of family, friends and food. Technically, Thanksgiving is a holiday. Most of us have the day off work and do little else but eat and sink into a languid stupefaction. For this reason, it is ...
Dolac: The Farmer’s Market in Zagreb
Tuesday, June 6th, 2006I come from a family of produce hucksters, so I love open-air farmers' markets. The sights, sounds and smells always remind me of visiting Soulard Market or Produce Row in St. Louis with my Gammy as a wee spud. Zagreb's farmers' market is pretty incredible. The marketplaces I've seen in Croatia's ...
A Barbecue in the Country
Saturday, May 27th, 2006As much as I've enjoyed my time in Zagreb before the jaunt to Pelješac, a little time in the country was just what the doctor ordered. So I went with my dear friend Kornelija to her hometown of Zdenčina. The expedition from Zagreb's main rail station was a pleasant thirty ...
