Tuesdays with TT: FBM March 2012 Potluck

As it had been about three months since the last FBM Potluck, it was time once again for us to get together for plenty of food and drink. This time around Beer Boor was our gracious host. KC was ready for the holidays and made us a Pizza Rustica. It was full of various meats and cheeses. Very delicious but lethal. I could have eaten this whole thing myself. CT made Barbacoa for the first time in our crockpot. She was a little disappointed it came out dry, but the fresh avocado salsa she also made fixed that problem. I [...]

Tuesdays with TT: Shanghai Tide

To continue our culinary staycation of 2011, we planned to go for hot pot in Flushing. It had been a couple years since CT & I last went and were waiting for winter to kick in for it to be hot pot weather. Unfortunately, we missed the FBM hot pot outing last year at Shanghai Tide, so we organized another outing during Christmas week. Unfortunately we had a smaller group than usual, but c’est la vie. Fortunately for us, the restaurant was pretty quiet since most people were smart enough to stay home. Not only was it cold, but it [...]

Tuesdays with TT: Royal Seafood

The day after our feast at Maialino with our parents, we met up with our FBM friends for dim sum to celebrate TC’s birthday. As you know, we at Feisty Foodie LOVE dim sum. Since our friend Hungry, from Tasty Eating, was organizing, we went to her favorite place, Royal Seafood. CT and I have read some of Hungry’s great accounts of her experiences here and have had it on “The List” for a long time now. Hungry told us that we should meet at 10:30 the latest. I found this strange as most dim sum places don’t get busy [...]

FBM Holiday Potluck 2011

As loyal readers of Feisty Foodie know, the FBM likes to get together for a potluck every couple of months. Since we are in the middle of the holiday season, it was time for our now annual FBM Holiday Potluck. We all had a good time last year and were looking forward it again. This time around CT & I hosted at our apartment. It was only fair since Hungry and Beer Boor has hosted on multiple occasions previously. CT made jambalaya with chicken, shrimp and smoked chorizo. She has been tweaking this recipe for a while now, so it [...]

FBM Potluck #7

My FBM family is awesome, as are our once-every-few-months potlucks.  October’s potluck took place at Beer Boor’s, and as usual… I was the first to arrive.  My artichoke gratinata, which I took issue with the way it came out, but I always hate what I make so I try to keep quiet and let other people just eat it.  If they like it, great.  If not… well… I didn’t like it either.  My kickin’ chicken, which was unevenly spiced unfortunately… I heard someone comment that they got a big chunk of spice in one bite but the rest was a [...]
