Southerners, avert your eyes if you must. This is a delicate, moist, crumbly, yet, somehow cake-y and SWEET cornbread. This is one of our all-time favorites.

Back in the day, lobsters were poor man’s food. …Or, so I’ve been told. Those were the good ole days. In my life, lobster has always been an extravagence. Even now, with the prices dipping it will always have the quiet vibe of indulgence. On a day when […]

Sicilian pizza may as well not even exist in Atlanta. With a very (VERY) limited number of exceptions, the version you tend to see around town is the lowest common denominator of a near approximation to “Sicilian” pizza. So, what’s a girl to do? She makes her own, […]
I’m not Irish. So, I didn’t feel one ounce of guilt about turning this into a sweet bread. I am, however, Italian. So, ok maybe… just maybe. There was one little itty bitty baby ounce of guilt. It’s not at all traditional. But, this sweetened soda bread was a big […] |
