Oakland Restaurant Challenge: Fuel & Fuddle
Back in 2009, when we lived in Bloomfield, we challenged ourselves to eat at every restaurant on Liberty Avenue. Last year, since we’d moved to Squirrel Hill, we conquered every restaurant on Murray Ave. And this year, since we aren’t … Continue reading
The Elaborate Monthly: A Fabuloso Italian Dinner
So, if you recall, back in 2010, we decided to try 26 different recipes from Cooking Light. This was *supposed* to be one recipe every two weeks, but it wound up being a lot of weeks with no recipe, and … Continue reading
