Roy's of Hawaii

I didn't tell you about Roy's on State street. We went there after Mass on Easter. It's right at the corner of State and Superior. And superior is a great street for this restaurant to be on. We were greeted at the door very cordially and seated at a table by the window. It was a gorgeous day so this was great. We looked at the menu and saw there were several appetizers available. We started to decide which one to have when were informed by the server that we would receive a tasting of each of the four appetizers. These included a mushroom quiche, ginger ravioli, a piece of salmon sushi and coconut shrimp. Each was delicious and because Margie does not eat sushi, I got hers. MMM.....boy! We had soup and salad and then on to our entrees. I had crab cake with poached eggs and Margie had a seafood treasure omlette. It had lobster, shrimp and scallops inside. Every piece of food was delicious and we had a great time. But what made the bruch was the service. The folks at Roy's of Hawaii are always interested in making your stay with them excellent. It shows in everything they do. Go and you will not be dissapointed.

First day of School Podcast

Hey students of food. Here's the first day at school, April 4th, 2005. Enjoy the podcast!

First Day of School

Welcome back!

Howdy fellow food lovers. Well that was quite a break. I know it sounds weird but I am really looking forward to coming back to school. Tomorrow we start the custards class with the same group I just finished basic techniques with. I am glad to be with you folks again. Today I am at school getting ready for the class. I am prepping creme caramel and creme brulee and some surprises. It's actually skill lab but since nobody contacted me and it's the beginning of a new term, I doubt I will have any students show up today. I see some folks coming up the path towards the school. They must have a class that starts today. There are some very white starched uniforms. I think we have some extremely new folks starting today. Welcome to all! If you are in my class tomorrow, don't forget to bring the recipe book. We will be diving right in first thing Tuesday. Get lots of sleep tonight and I will see you in the morning.
