More on Tuesday Tastings

Think Old New York- a quiet side street in SoHo, romantic, fresh spring air and the doors open wide. THIS is why I moved to New York! What could be better than late nights at the cafe drinking wine?

1 Dominick is now offering complimentary tastings on Tuesday nights. Here is the upcoming schedule:

Tuesday, April 28 at 6:00 PM- Join us for a Rioja Tasting as part of Rioja Restaurant Week and enjoy a fancy selection of young and old Rioja's.

Tuesday, May 5th at 6:00 PM- Jasper Hill "Cabot cloth bound cheddar' and Samuel Smith English Ales. Cabot cheddar as sourced by Anne Saxelby - maybe she will join us for a drink?

We will also be sampling from our appetizer menu, items such as the "il melti", our cheese selections, and savory baked goods including gougeres, cheese toasts, and savory tarts!

Celebrity Cookbook

You may chuckle to yourself slightly whenever you see a celebrity cookbook. Sure, I'd be a little skeptical of Cooking with Kate Moss or 101 Brownie Variations by Tommy Chong but I'd actually like to get my hands on this cookbook. You see, Sophia Loren once cooked dinner for my husband.

Well, not my husband specifically... he was working on Grumpier Old Men and Ms Loren was kind enough to cook for the entire cast and crew. When I asked him how it was he responded, "Delicious." Which then prompted me to ask, "What was delicious? The meal or Sophia Loren?" He said, "Yes."

Check out some fun pics, posts and links for and about this 1971 cookbook at Eat Me Daily.

Fried Baloney for Breakfast

1 Dominick Cafe has great food for breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner. One of my favorites is the Fried Baloney Tramezzini.
It's a good, old fashioned fried baloney sandwich, made with falai bakery bread, fra mani mortadella, Italian fontina cheese and the outside of the bread is schmeared with mayonnaise. I would think that writer Josh Ozersky would have tried it by now?
