Porridge is excellent. Soup good. Congee ...

  Dedicated Elementary Teacher Overseas — Authority: 103
  Every year I taught Grade 3, my third-graders had a big problem with their friends telling others their secrets.

• Food Festival Fun

  
  Shrink Rap — Authority: 116
  Sunday, Alex and I volunteered at our Temple’s Food Festival.  I thought I’d be making liverwurst sandwiches, but we were placed at the Middle Eastern Platter table, which was in the deli room.  It was sort of tough to find.  Vegetarians wandered the halls weeping. The Middle Eastern platters contained ...

  Food GPS — Authority: 506
  Since this is Los Angeles, it makes sense that one of the city’s best Middle Eastern restaurants would share a Van Nuys strip mall with a water shop and a restaurant touting “Edible Sandwiches.” Chef-owner Eli Janesian and wife Talin have owned this Middle Eastern restaurant for nine months, taking over for ...

• Moussaka

  
  We [Heart] Food — Authority: 446
  I’d been craving lamb, and Lisa was in a I-want-lasagna-but-we-just-had-lasagna mood, so moussaka seemed like the perfect bridge between our two wants. This recipe comes from the book Mediterranean Hot and Spicy ; the moussaka was certainly hot (after being in a 400F oven for an hour…) but spicy? Not so much. ...
