The GTA guide to Colombian empanadas (really, really long)

8 'hounds spent 6 hours on Saturday driving around Greater Toronto looking for the best Colombian empanadas. Colombian empanadas have shells made from corn meal, are filled exclusively with a beef and potato mixture and they are deep fried. Other types of South American empanadas have shells made from a regular wheat flour dough/pastry, can be filled with a variety of ingredients and are baked.

We made 7 stops for Colombian empanadas*, 2 stops for non-Colombian empanadas and several opportunistic stops for other goodies that happened to be within striking range of our planned stops.

Several 'hounds took photos. Here is one set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/70078254...

Stop 1: Bagel Flame - 126 Wellington St West, Aurora
Who goes to Aurora for empanadas?! Especially to a shop that is a Jewish bakery during the week and a Colombian bakery on the weekends? Apparently, crazy chowhounds do. But fortunately, it was worth the drive. The empanadas had a great shell that had a little bit of crisp, but a lot of nice chew. The filling was very good and they served them with a side of a spicy guacamole sauce. We also picked up a couple of their alfajors, which were absolutely, positively the BEST alfajors that any of us had ever had. They were simply melt in your mouth tender, and surprisingly not too sweet, despite the mound of powdered sugar on them. There was just enough dulce de leche to provide a nice filling, but not overwhelm the cookie. Verdict: 2nd best Colombian empanada of day. Best alfajor, ever. Several of us bought extra empanadas to take home. They heat up really well the next day, as the extra chew seemed to keep the shell from getting too hard and dried out when re-heated.

Stop 2: Two places in the food court at Plaza Latina - 9 Milvan Court

2a: La Costenita
I honestly can't recall how these were. Verdict: I'm guessing that they were pretty forgettable. :

2b: Autentica Panaderia (not Colombian, likely Argentinean style)
These were the traditional South American empanadas and were probably the best that any of us had ever had. The pastry was thin and tender with just a bit of flakiness. The chorizo one was packed full of very tasty, though not very spicy, chorizo. The seafood was chock full of a mild, tasty seafood filling. You can see the whole shrimps packed into the filling. Verdict: The 3rd best empanada of the day, but easily the best baked-style empanada that most of us had ever had. Several of us picked up a few to take home.

Opportunistic side stops 1, 2 and 3: Of course, we couldn't be in that food court and not try a few other things. So we also tried an awesome lomo saltado (which finally solves the craving I've had ever since El Bodegon closed down), pupusa, steak sandwich and some fruity drink. Verdict: This food court is truly a hidden gem in the city and needs to be frequented and touted by more 'hounds! We plan on going back and trying a couple of dishes from each and every vendor.

Stop 3: Juan Meat Market - 40 Beverly Hills Drive (Argentinean style)
Very, very cool Latin American supermarket with a huge deli counter filled with prepared foods (see the photos) and a meat counter bursting with cuts of every kind. The split, roasted suckling pigs were incredibly tempting, too. We picked up 2 different types of empanadas -- one beef, one chicken. The pastry was rather doughy and the fillings were ok, but not great. The beef was a bit dry, but the chicken was some nice shredded chicken that was both moist and flavourful. Verdict: OK, but they were crushed by the quality of the Argentinean empanadas from the food court at Plaza Latino.

Opportunistic side stop 4: Kabul Farms Supermarket (right next door to Juan Meat Market)
We picked up a bolani, which is a thin flat bread filled with chives and leeks (rather reminiscent of Chinese green onion pancakes) and some samosas. The bolani was tasty, but not crispy (which I had hoped for) and the hot sauce was quite good. The samosas were not particularly good -- the pasty was rather thick and soft and the filling had an unusual spice mixture that tasted reminiscent of a Chinese curry beef bun filling. Verdict: wickedly cool market with some prepared foods worth exploring.

Stop 4: Cafe Las Americas
Perfect shell -- crispy with just a bit of chew, tasty filling, excellent vinegary hot sauce. Verdict: the clear winner, hands down. Several of us bought a half dozen or dozen to take home. Not quite as awesome heated up the next day, but still really good.

Opportunistic side stop 5: Rancho Latina (in the plaza next door to Cafe Las Americas)
When we saw that this was also a Colombian restaurant, we had to pick up empanadas, of course. Horribly greasy (like oozing grease) and hard, tasteless shell and filling. Verdict: really awful, the worst of the bunch.

Opportunistic side stop 6: Seara Portuguese Bakery (across from CLA)
They have a patio where we ate the spoils from the stops 3 - 5. We picked up a bunch of Portuguese baked goodies to share -- a few donut-like items, a few natas, a bean tart and a glazed puff pastry item that looked like a donut, but was like a crispy mille-feuille without the custard. I still prefer the sweets at Doce Minho, but really, what's not to like about sweet, fried doughy things? Verdict: good if you're in the area, not worth a separate trip.

Opportunistic side stop 7: Churrasqueira Estrela (next door to Seara)
The smell of charcoal smoke was too much to bear, so a couple of us went in a picked up a couple of chickens and side dishes to take home. The chicken was amazingly smokey and delicious. Verdict: I don't have a lot of other churrasco chickens to compare it against, but it was damn tasty and a pretty good deal for $11.50 a chicken. Decent rice and potatoes, too.

Stop 5: El Rancherito - 1646 St Clair Ave W
OK shell, bland filling, wickedly hot sauce. Verdict: middle of the road, not worth a repeat visit.

Stop 6: Latin Fiesta - 1002 St Clair Ave W
A bad sign that we were given ketchup and mayo instead of hot sauce. The empanadas were pale and not that crisp and probably could have used another minute in the fryer. The bland-ish filling and lack of any hot sauce made this a waste of calories. Verdict: Forgettable.

Stop 7: Mi Tierra - 828 Saint Clair Avenue W
OK shell, blandish filling. I can't recall the hot sauce. Verdict: middle of the road, not worth a repeat visit.

Opportunistic side stop 8: Baked on Lauder
Got a nutella pie from here. It was very pretty, but the taste did not live up to the looks. The pastry managed to be both hard and pasty at the same time and the filling was just not that interesting and was rather gritty (we guessed from the addition of ground hazelnuts). Verdict: pass on it.

Opportunistic side stop 9: The Stockyards
Picked up a pound and a half of pastrami and a bunch of limeades. There was much rejoicing when we discovered they had their awesome pastrami available. The limeades were a refreshing way to wash down the salt bomb. Verdict: fantastic.

And that was it. We took the food from stops 5 onward to Wychwood park and sat at a picnic table and finished our day of feasting. It was rather epic to watch one hound snarf down a half pound of Stockyards' pastrami.

All in all, it was a brilliant day of chowing and exploring the world of Colombian (and other) empanadas. By the way, this tour was announced and planned on the Chowhound Toronto google group for anyone interested in future outings.

*Other places known to have Colombian empanadas that we chose to skip, that were closed or that we've been to:

- Antojitos - 803 Lakeshore Rd E, Mississauga
- Los Arrieros - 752 Wilson Ave (we went, but they are no longer there, though there is a location on Jane St.)
- Motivos - 1042 Saint Clair Avenue W (closed when we got there)
- Columbus Bakery - 2931 Dufferin St. (which we've all tried -- not as good as our top 2)

  1. 2a was bland and filled with giant pieces of potato i believe. the meat was quite pale as well, but i don't recall the shell being offensive.

    2b i was crazy impressed with the crispness of the dough on the exterior considering it wasn't very thick at all and the moistness and generosity with regards to the filling. i could have used more flavour but it was great.

    5 i think was also made worse in that they didn't use ground meat but had stewed beef that was dry and stringy.

    a really great day! will need another theme soon ;)

    1. A worthy venture of gastronauts! Would be nice to see some mapping to go with this. I've spent the last few weeks enjoyig the conflagration of Chilean, Mexican and Venezuelan at the new little mecca of El Gordo on Augusta. What were the compositions of the hot sauces?

      1. re: Snarf

        Here's a partial map: http://bit.ly/irWyv6

        It doesn't contain the opportunistic stops, but I think all the main stops we had are there.

        The hot sauces were usually a vinegar base with minced chiles, onions and maybe garlic? Each place had it's own variation. Maybe someone else has a better idea of the composition of the hot sauces.

        1. re: Snarf

          while the hot sauces were distinct, i didn't think any one in particular had any purpose than being spicy and something sharp to cut through the fried corn enclosure. they're just little side add ons, not expecting a whole lot of complexity.. i really did think that the slightly vinegary guac from bagel flame was a really interesting match and completely different from everyone else.

        2. Outstanding report Jo.

          I will make one comment first that was just an observation upon reflection. By and large, the empanadas we liked the best were eaten right away. Others that spent time in the bag and travelled seemed to suffer. That would be particularly bad for the dough based ones from Juan Meat Market.

          I will also add that the chorizo and seafood ones from Autentica are Chilean not Argentinian.

          So here's my 2c.

          1) Suprised at how much I enjoyed Bagel Flame. A word to the wise, don't get there too early as they seem to be slow getting set up. Shelves were empty the previous week when I went but that was a full 2 hours earlier than we arrived. All in all, a great little place.

          2a) Clearly my favourite but that's because I prefer dough to cornmeal. Oddly enough I liked the chorizo better on the tour but warmed up the next day I found the seafood to be better.

          5) I though the hot sauce was excellent. Pretty tasty and yes, wickedly hot. Blow the doors off hot. Fortunately made the empanadas and pupusas palatable. The slaw the served with it was awful as well.

          As for the side stops I'll start with Churesquarea Estrala. Fabulous chicken. I really liked the rice and I also picked up a tub of olives which were good the day of but better the next day.

          I was disappointed in the empanadas from Juan Meat Market. They probably suffered as was said above but that's no excuse for the poor execution. There were air pockets inside and that's not good. Great place and the beef looked fantastic.

          Kabul farms is really cool too. In their meat case there were veal brains, goat heads and some sort of innards. The guy at the hot table was very friendly and seemed generally flattered that 4 Asians and 4 round eyes were so interested in his food. I really liked the bolani but since it the only one I've ever had, I have no baseline to compare.

          Last but certainly not least was the stop at Mercado Latino. Other than the reasonably forgettable empanadas everything was no worse that very good IMHO. The goodies from the Chilean place (Autentica) would've been the highlight for me but for the lomo saltado from the Peruvian place with no name. It's a dish I'd never heard of and now suddenly don't know how I can live without. Thanks Jo.

          Honestly hounds, you really need to get up to the Mercado. It's a bit difficult to find and rather intimidating but for a true, true adventure in food without ever leaving city limits this is the place.
          I look forward to our triumphant return.

          1. re: Davwud

            i don't know if i agree with your travel assessment completely. the restaurant locations were frying on the spot whereas the grocery and bakery locations often just had them sitting in the case. so there was easily a fair amount of time that they could have been waiting for us. the second best colombian empanada and best dough empanada were both in such a scenario.

            actually... really the only empanadas that were carried for a period of time were from the 9 milvan spot, otherwise we all convened right after after retrieving them from multiple locations. i do think some shells may have suffered from steaming out a bit but overall if the filling was bland or awful that tended to be the main issue.

            i do have to say, that while i was sitting in the car i did find it pretty funny that people in TO seem so desperate to find good mexican even though we have some really interesting and delicious latino food of other varieties in pretty good abundance.

            1. re: Davwud

              Davwud: I think you meant 2b as your favourite (Autentica Panaderia). 2a were the really greasy ones we brought to Wychwood with us. Sky Ranch on Dufferin has lomo saltado on their menu too but I find their version too salty. I prefer the one from the no name place at Mercado (we really need a return trip just to figure out their name!). Does anyone remember where the pupusas came from? I think I have it labeled wrong in the pictures. Let me know and I'll revise. Thanks.

              Sky Ranch
              2473 Dufferin St, Toronto, ON M6B3P9, CA

              1. re: fickle

                i don't think you have a photo of the place and in the name is "pupuseria" so i think finding it again will not prove difficult ;)

                as for the peruvian place with no signage visable i suspect it may be called El Sabroson Comida Peruana based on some googling.

                El Sabroson
                9 Milvan Dr, Toronto, ON M9M2E1, CA

                1. re: pinstripeprincess

                  I can not figure out the name of the place with the lomo on the menu. It has a Peruvian flag above it but as the picture below will show, there's no obvious sign.

                  1. re: pinstripeprincess

                    I did have a picture but didn't upload it because I didn't remember what we had from there! Thanks for the reminder, I've added the pic to the collection. The name is Pupuseria El Buen Sabor.

                    Pupuseria El Buen Sabor
                    9 Milvan Dr, Toronto, ON M9M2E1, CA

              2. Sounds like a blast. Sorry I missed it. Thanks for the report!

                1. Despite the fact that this was an empanada tour, it was the alfajors that really were the revelation of the day for me. I always look at alfajors and think 'that looks amazing' and then taste them and find them kind of disappointingly dry and not very good. But the Bagel Flame alfajors were astoundingly good -- they really fulfill the promise of the way alfajors look.

la cachette mini report

  • a

i went to la cachette last night and had a wonderful dinner! i've never written a report before, so pardon me if this isn't detailed enough.

the bread they served looked like breadsticks from a pizza joint, but they were MUCH tastier and had a nice crust on them. i only wish i had salted butter to put on them. i love salted butter on bread!

i ordered a squash and corn soup to start with. the portion was enormous. last time i had gone, i had some kind of corn soup that was way too salty. i was glad to find that last night's soup was salted just right! the squash gave the corn a kind of velvety taste and the corn flavor was subtly sweet.

for my main course, i ordered a special white asparagus salad. the vinegary dressing had some white truffle oil in it and the asparagus came with chopped egg whites and some greens. i enjoyed the salad, but by the time i was about 3/4 done with it, i just couldn't take the dressing anymore and didn't finish.

dessert was a strawberry rhubarb tart, which you had to order before dinner as you would a souffle. it came out piping hot with a perfect crust. when i tasted it, i was pleased to find it was not too sweet.

the only negative comment i had was about the waiter. they were busy last night and he was a bit snippy. sometimes he would be very accomodating and charming and other times he would get impatient, like when my friend was asking too many questions about the meny items and having difficulty deciding. still, he wasn't obnoxious or anything, but you could see he was getting frustrated and he's only human.

  1. I, too, have a minireport for La Cachette.
    Went there this past Sunday - three in the group. It's a little difficult to get to, and there really isn't anything else in the area, but the restaurant was still fairly crowded for a Sunday night at 8 pm. The crowd tends to be a bit on the older side.

    Before we ordered, the waiter brought an amuse bouche of a tomato tart on a very nice, flaky, but not at all buttery or heavy crust.

    housemade duck pate - it was the special of the night. a little dry, taste was good, but nothing to write home about.
    endive and romaine salad with white truffle oil dressing - now, i am not normally a huge fan of endive, but the dressing was superb. the truffle oil complemented the crispy potato strings on top of the salad.
    butternut squash ravioli - a bit too sweet for my taste, without any particular interesting flavors.

    Duck cooked two ways - now THIS was fantastic. it is a duck breast, and a duck confit, with a citrusy/picked cabbage side. it also comes with crispy potato strings, which i think were more superfluous. but the duck was perfectly cooked, moist and delicious.

    veal stew - this was the country market dish of the night. a few pieces of tender stewed veal meat, over some thin pasta along with sweet onions, peas and carrots. also very good. i should add that all portions were generous.

    black angus filet - dont know why my friend ordered a steak at a french restaurant. it came with some blue cheese on top, and while it was fine, was nothing spectacular.

    we ordered the souffle and the apple crisp. the souffle was really very big, perfectly light and not too sweet. the apple crisp comes ala mode with hot caramel dressing. again, on a thin flaky but not too heavy crust. we were all stuffed by this time, but the desserts were really too good to pass up.

    dinner for three with tax, tip, a bottle of wine and one cocktail - $300. a little more than i anticipated, but all in all, an excellent restaurant.

    1. Our Tasting Menu at a recent lunch with friends. Everything was exceptional.

      Seared Foie Gras
      Hamachi Appetizer
      Mediterranean Sardine Salad
      Peking Duck 2 ways
      Pears & Gorgonzola Cheese
      Rose Peddle Tart

Rome_outside seating_piazza, alley, anywhere

Hello all and thank you again for your priceless recommendations for our trip next week.

In Rome we have reserved for 3 of our 4 nights.
First night at Armando al Pantheon, then Roscioli and then Flavio al Velavevodetto. For lunch we are will be heading to Pizzarium and Taverna dei Fori Imperiali, with a possibility for porchetta in Trastevere, and the search for the perfect suppli.

We have 1 night that we have not reserved yet, and i feel like we will be missing dinning under the stars and golden hue of Rome which is something that i have really enjoyed in the past.
Could you recommend us some places that have amazing outdoor seating as well as terrific food? I would love to hear your suggestions on al fresco dinning. Our budget is around 250 euros for 4.

One of my options right now is Cul de Sac, on piazza pasquino. Would prefer somenthing grander and romantic.
Hopefully you can help! Thanks in advance.

  1. Ristorante Piperno is located in a tiny piazza. Gorgeous!

    1. Alla Regola has tables outside in a charming piazza between Largo Argentina and the Tiber. The cuisine is Ligurian. I wouldn't choose Cul de Sac for atmosphere. Vecchia Roma, Piazza Campitelli, has a lot of atmosphere. Not everybody likes it, but I have many friends who come often and always go there. Grano is good too.

      1. re: mbfant

        Thanks these are gret suggestions.
        As far as Vecchia Roma, i have passed it many times and know it above all for this great article years ago in Conde Nast traveller about rome, ghost spots and the past that comes to hunts us . I have not heard anything on these boards about their food? Although like you said the piazza is beautiful and Santa Maria in Campitelli is great.

        I wonder, mbfant, if you could elaborate a bit more. Does it not come out on the CH boards because it is considered "old fashioned" these days?

        I will write all of your suggestions and in our first nights there pass by them to see the atmosphere and compare. Thanks.

        1. re: javi777

          can't elaborate. I never go there. I don't think the food is that great, but, as I said, I have friends who always go there. Don't know what they all eat. The setting is gorgeous and the food is good enough. I love the food at Piperno and, if it were my dinner, would probably go there. However, it might be closed next week. I recall Vecchia Roma being open when others were closed. Grano too should be open.

      2. I second the Piperno suggestion.

        1. Nice thread!! keep them coming.

          1. Santa Lucia -Largo Febo, 12 ( Navona Square)
            Right round the corner from Piazza Navona, but miles away in ambiance.
            Outdoor seating on an elevated terrace, under the stars. Very romantic.
            Excellent service and the food was superb!

i've heard it was originally slated to open sept/12, but have heard no updates. anybody got a clue?

    1. re: Kagemusha

      There was an article in The Star recently and it says they're hoping to open within the month.

      1. re: normanwolf

        Missing TIFF doesn't exactly scream "clued in." With all the putzing around to date, is Chang saying he's scaling things back? Just asking...

        1. re: Cam D

          tiff business is annual at best...if he is going to succeed he will have to encourage and impress the locals....skipping it be ready is probably smart.

          1. re: ingloriouseater

            Maybe but the buzz would be bankable. Can't be helped given the slo-mo progress to date. He has to transplant the NYC quality and price point to win here. Goof up either and he's done.

            1. re: Kagemusha

              every new restaurant that opens here has buzz, he will be busy regardless of tiff, there is no magical tiff bump-

              the initial quality will be there but will probably fade as does his presence as to price point..many t.o. restos are more expensive than new york.

              i predict he will be gone when the lease expires, scarpetta and bolud as well.

              1. re: ingloriouseater

                I really hope not. I'm really hoping we get at least one quality fine dining spot out of the four. This city is lacking in that department IMO.

                1. re: ingloriouseater

                  TO ain't NYC. Despite the old Hogtown herd of independent minds who'll line up for anything, he'll be done quick if quality and price are out of whack. He should have been up and running a few months back.

                  1. re: Kagemusha

                    they are doing a bunch of training but i wonder how the folks will enjoy sitting on wooden box without a back and paying $20 for noodle soup

                2. re: Kagemusha

                  Nah I don't think he has to worry about the buzz. TIFF or not this place will be packed for the first few months at the very least. The proof will be how the restos are doing in time for the next TIFF.

                  1. re: JennaBean

                    Some recent American transplants, namely Scarpetta and the Ritz, have been disappointing. We could look at Momofuku Australia to see how successful he is at bringing his concept to another city, but Scarpetta and the Ritz have both been successful in other cities. We could point to Matt Blodin being brought on board as chef as a positive sign, but Scarpetta brought their chef de cuisine from NYC. My point is that induction offers no guarantees, but that goes both ways. We can speculate all we want, no one has that magic crystal ball. But like others have said, I also hope this works out. The only other restaurants, I can think of, which offers a tasting menu in an intimate setting are Eigensinn Farm and Hashimoto. Both are expensive and not conveniently located, another choice would be welcome.

                    1. re: dubchild

                      Just to be clear, they have hired Matt (who is a talented chef but a utter jerk) but they are also moving two chefs from NYC.

                      There are going to be 4 rooms, each operating under a different name with a different vibe, in loose terms from what I understand you can think of them as:
                      - Noodle bar
                      - Ssam bar or Ma Peche
                      - Booker and Dax (but bigger and loungier)
                      - Ko

        2. They are hiring servers right now.

          1. They were originally gunning for a TIFF-timed opening. When the first announced the restaurants there was an email address where you could send your TIFF-related inquiries. I didn't read the article but they may be able to do a soft opening for a portion of TIFF. Didn't LUMA do something like that?

            1. re: wontonfm

              they did f&f last night and some of my f&f went. initial reports point to food being "good" but the pork buns are "overrated". these are direct quotes so don't jump on me, i dunno, i didn't go. but yeah, they should be up and running soon.

            2. Start your engines kids - momofuku noodle bar is opening today and they just started taking online rezzies for Shoto (the prix fixe) - opening Saturday!! (happy dance)

                  I'm going to guess there are a "few" other people trying to book a reservation so the system is likely overloaded...

                  No reservations for the noodle bar.

                  1. re: peppermint pate

                    I finally got on. They only take reservation up to Oct 2 for Shoto and I want one for the 13 so I will have to wait. Le sigh.

                      The entire site is down for me - is it the same cost as Ko? Or are they doing dinner only?

                        Dinner only. I have no idea the cost but I'm going to check it out for sure if I can ever get a reso. :-)

                          I think (not sure) it's around $150/person.

                            Yes I was eventually able to see the site - $150/person :) And there were lots of reservations when I looked a bit earlier today.

                      My friend is there and got interviewed by the Star lol. I went for F&F to Noodle Bar, I didn't notice much difference between it and the one in NYC.

                      1. re: ggom1

                        I agree.

                        Just came back from lunch and the pork buns and the ginger scallion noodles were the same quality as I had the many times I'd stop into the East Village spot on my way home from work in NYC. The ramen a woman next to me had smelt the same, and even the napkin dispensers and sirracha squeeze bottles were the same as NYC.

                        The worst part was the crowd. At lunch the place was filled with too many people taking pictures of their food and tweeting. Chill out guys; I know you've got a food blog to update but it's just noodles.

Nespresso on Beverly in Beverly Hills ?????

I thought this coffee was supposed to be crappy but there's an outpost of it in BH that looks to be relatively new to my eyes.

What do you guys thinks ?????

  1. Click to Upload a photo (10 MB limit)
  1. It's a huge space. I can't imagine the rent on a place selling coffee pods. I peeked in to see if Penelope Cruz was lounging about (as in the Nespresso commercial). No such luck.

    1. re: Wayno

      Damn, I'd grow through a lot if Cruz where there.

        1. re: Wayno

          sorry, i meant "go" through a lot instead of "grow".

          1. re: kevin

            Oh, I think you meant 'grow' :).

      1. re: Wayno

        Isn't George Clooney in those commercials as well?

      2. This is not a store to make a profit. It is to get national PR attention for Nespresso and it seems to be working.

        1. As a spectator, I love the space and the metallic displays!

          The day we were there, they had just opened. The place was buzzing and there were no available tables. Consequently, I have not tried their coffee. The coffee was secondary; the space was like a museum in its displays. The wares and pod colors are beautiful.

          1. re: liu

            For some reason, it reminds me of a coffee version of Giardelli Square Chocolate cafe in SF.

            Based on your reports, it sounds like just that.

            1. re: kevin

              I've visited the chocolate cafe in San Fran, but I do not remember it. Nespresso is up-to-the-moment modern and sleek inside with lots of tables and chatter for those wishing to indulge and linger in this very slick chamber.

              It is definitely on my list for a return visit as I want to try the product. Even if the coffee is not great, the marketing is spectacular!

              1. re: liu

                Ok, I will check it out.

                for sure.

                1. re: kevin

                  Even if it is just a pretty face, it is worth a visit!

                  1. re: liu

                    And hopefully Penelope will be there too for a tete a tete.

          2. just met some folks who have been living in spain for several years - they said "everyone" drinks nespresso espresso from the pods over there, because it's so convenient and it's very good.

            so, slick marketing aside, has anyone actually tried the coffee??

              We had a machine at my office a couple of years back. I'd say it was average at best. I also had a huge issue with the amount of waste generated by the pods, which - at least at the time - were not recyclable.

              1. re: wienermobile

                Oh, yes! It's a nice place to linger.

                1. re: wienermobile

                  Ah, I see they have wine, too. So, even if the coffee isn't great, it's probably the least expensive place to grab a glass of wine in that neighborhood (which is where I work). Kevin, come by; we'll have a glass and look for Penny. Dare I say, that would be a true pleasure Cruz.

                  1. re: Wayno

                    Is the wine in a pod too ????

                    Yeah, when I passed by there it looked a little out of place, like the Disneyification of coffee.

                  2. re: wienermobile

                    Wait just a second.

                    Are we paying for coffee out of a pod just like in the commercials ???????

                      1. re: kevin

                        What, you don't want to become one of the pod people? In that case you had better not fall asleep...

                        1. re: Servorg

Little Buddha located in the Ridge Hill shopping center, Yonkers

Oh so terrible...
This is not about working out the kinks of a newly opened restaurant.
This place was beyond terrible. It was highly processed bad frozen food...Actually there are many better fast food chains serving better food and tastier choices in the frozen foods section of most supermarkets.
Below some of the highs and lows of the meal
shrimp shumai: see the pic and video I brought a couple home to demonstrate their very unique quality...move over super ball you have competition ...what can I say! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMHiS...
calamari salad...Tasteless calamari, sugar overload in the dressing that was on the greens
"amazing " calamari: amazing because I don't think it was actually calamari, more like some type of underfried processed compressed something molded into ring shapes, sugar overload in the dipping sauce
wonton soup: broth had a strange and salty unpleasant flavor, wontons looked really good tasted like s_ _ _.
Five spice chicken: inedible
Steak teriyaki this dish was the only edible dish ordered and was just that, edible.
Our server had an extremely heavy accent which made it almost impossible for us to understand him...he appeared to be having the same problem understanding us and snapped at us a couple of times.
Apparently this is the fourth restaurant opened and owned by the same person.
Buddha in Rye Brook, Lucky Buddha Thornwood and Yumi in Pelham.
I am at a complete loss, has anyone eaten at any of his other places, are they all this bad Little Buddha, who eats this s_ _ _???

As far as the restaurants ambiance, someone at my table said she was waiting for two Vietnamese karaoke singers to appear and start singing Horse with no name.
For those not familiar (see the karaoke scene from Air America)

  1. Follow the bouncing shumai! Sounds terrible - thanks for the warning. I'd rather have take-out from my local place.

    1. My co-workers and I have been to Lucky Buddha in Thornwood for lunch several times in the last year. Food has always been decent to good. Service was quick and efficient, and we did not find any language barrier. Of course, every restaurant is different (different servers and chefs) so your experience may be limited to the one in Yonkers.

      1. chowdom, I think you have provided invaluable info to both the chow community and, even more so, the owners of this group of restaurants. I hope they see your post and thank you with a large gift card as compensation for the horrid/disappointing meal and the feedback you took the time to provide to this organization.
        Companies that don't value feedback, especially negative comments, are ignorant, inexperienced, and/or have a death wish.
        Kudos to you!

          Thx mrsdebdav, I did stop on my way out to talk to the owner/manager. He was super nice but very overwhelmed there was food from other tables going back to the kitchen.
          I thought about this restaurant after I read your post
          I think my ranting about Little Buddha is no different than if I were ranting about any other bad chain restaurant that pretends to serve real authentic food.
          Applebee's, olive garden, Red lobster...to name a few
          It is unfortunate that many will try this restaurant and be turned off to ethnic food forever...or worse think that this is really the genuine cuisine. Pics of some type of chicken and "amazing calamari"

Where can I purchase Broccoli rabe in the Puget Sound area. Have looked at Farmers Markets and most do not even know what it is. I can find it in most supermarkets and Farmers Markets all over New York, New Jersey, Conn an Mass. Why not here?? Any ideas, please

  1. Click to Upload a photo (10 MB limit)
  1. you should post this question on your local board

    1. They used to carry it at the U-District Farmers' Market. I've been out of Seattle for a while now, but I'd check there if you haven't already.

      1. I buy rapini all the time at the Roosevelt Whole Foods and the Sand Point Metropolitan Market. I think I saw it last week at the Queen Anne Farmers Market, but no promises that it's still there.

        1. I've seen at the West Seattle Farmer's Market several times but, like lavaca, can't guarantee it's there now.

          1. I've seen it at Sosio's at Pike Place and at most QFCs as well as at Central Market and Met Market.

ACK black widows in my garden

My husband was working in the garden today and found 3 black widows living under my zucchini plants. This is just creeping me out considering I'm out there on a regular basis picking fruits under and around those huge leaves. I hope they aren't also hiding under my yellow wax beans which are really dense and bushy.

I've never seen them in our veggie gardens anywhere we've lived. We did have some in the garage and in the shed out back at this house but I never thought they'd move to the garden.

I guess I will go ahead and wear gloves when picking fruits.

  1. They're in my garden, too. Several were out in the Iris and sedum bed out by the street where it's sunny and hot. DH found a few in his vegetables.
    It's their turf, so I just leave 'em alone.

        We have the brown recluse also; I haven't had a problem with them in all the years I've lived here but I know people that experienced some damage when they got bit. Now, I've been thinking of moving to Phoenix; my daughter lives there and she told me not to even think about putting in a garden if I move there because of the scorpions. They freak me out!

        1. re: Cherylptw

          I lived in the both the Mohave and Sonoran deserts and had gardens. Never saw a scorpion in it though. We did have lots of gecko's

          1. re: rasputina

            I hear a lot of people who have spent their whole lives in Arizona say they have never encountered a scorpion. Yet, my daughter, who has lived there for the past six years has been stung a few times after finding them in her house. I guess you just never know but I don't think I would let it keep me from gardening..

            1. re: Cherylptw

              I've lived in the Sonoran desert since I was 6. The only wild scorpion I ever saw was on the ceiling right over my bunk when I was at camp. My coworker, who doesn't live that far from me, has loads of scorpions in his yard. ut then I never took a black light out to look for them.

        2. Rasputina or kitchengarden gal, What area do you live in? I'm in CT and hope there are none in my gardens to encounter unexpectedly.

            I don't like ticks, and I don't like horseflies, but spiders, no problem. They have no interest in coming near me. And they eat insects that may not be beneficial in my garden.

            1. re: kitchengardengal

              Thanks, never heard of them in vegetable gardens before!

            2. I get them all the time in my chile plants. They like to pull the leaves together to make little nests. Just have to be careful when harvesting.

              If I notice them, I'll give the nests a good blast with the hose.

          The Chinese produce stands near Scarborough Farms at the UCI FM always have some interesting items, maybe not exotic but certainly unique. I saw some Chinese yellow seedless watermelons and some melons that you don't find even in a Ranch 99.

          Also at the UCI FM I bought a bunch of pink lemonberries. They were pink in color and similar in shape to blueberries but smaller. They were ugly with a lot of dark markings near the top of the berry. Very sweet. I only saw them one week and never again. It was the stand at the corner right across from Baba Bros - the hummus guys.

Yachting around

I spent the morning yachting around on a 7.2 million dollar vessel. Yea, I know ... that's how I roll :-)

We kicked off the Seattle Boat Show this morning aboard "SeaVenture" - a local yacht that is over 100 feet long with 3000 sq ft of living space. It was spectacular!

Here are the specs:

- 9 bathrooms
- 5 showers
- 5 staterooms + 2 for crew
- granite counter tops
- spiral staircase (I mean, no boat should be without that :-)
- it can go for 1000 miles without re-fueling. That's from Seattle to LA!!

We were hanging with the folks from Hargrave Custom Yachts. These are people that you want to know.  They custom build yachts ... wow! They hold the key to my dream...l0l. My new goal ... get a yacht.

I was on this incredible boat all thanks to the Seattle Boat Show. For the past 64 years they've been wowing people here in Seattle with thousands of styles of boats, seminars on everything to do with boating, and lots of fun DIY projects to do at home with the fam (how would you like to build a cardboard boat or assemble a kit plane?). Much more about the Seattle Boat Show below, but first, let's check out that yacht!

The SeaVenture

The outdoor eating area

Where I would sun tan

Deliriously happy

Reading "Yachting Mag" - my new bible

Please let me have my own yacht

Check out this kitchen ... wooo eee!

The steering wheel in my car looks just like this one lol :-))

Where I would host fab dinner parties

Every boat needs a spiral staircase

Now what kind of yacht shall I pick? hmmm

Check out this bathroom!! His and hers

Micheal, myself & Peter - my new best friends

The gang and Lisa Samuelson

Writing my deposit check - I emailed this pic to my boss to let him know that I need a raise - say...7 million?

Enjoying some coffee in my new kitchen or as they call it on a boat ... a galley

You really should hit up the boat show. It's on for the next 10 days and will be tons of fun - I promise!

Visit for more info on how to attend.

  1. Christie you need a skipper? Onething I notice in the His/Hers bathroom, more hers with all the mirrors Lol:)Bon Voyage. Goodluck on that 7 million dollar raise. Told my boss and he was compliplating on a 7 cent raise.

Police used canoes to arrest skinny dippers in 1800s

  • Follow Metro

The man who is swimming against the stream knows the strength of it.

Woodrow Wilson

I can’t find the whole tale, but I’ll tell you what I know.

For centuries, people living along the banks of the Savannah River have no doubt sought its cool waters for relief from summer heat.

Sometimes those people removed their clothing to do so.

Sometimes others, offended by such naked displays, called the law.

Yes, that seems to be the case. In reading an old book on Augusta history, I came across the vaguest of references to a police crackdown on the practice of “skinny-dipping” in the Savannah River.

It said the pastime became such a nuisance in the 1800s that the Augusta police department purchased “a fleet” of seven canoes and dugouts to pursue and arrest the culprits.

What an odd circumstance. Can you imagine it being discussed, debated and voted on by our modern Augusta Commission?

I almost thought it was made up, but then there is the number “seven” of canoes. That lends an air of veracity to the report. It also makes you wonder why they needed so many canoes. One, maybe two should have done the trick.

I thought I could find some old news story to verify the story in the computerized archives of this, the South’s Oldest Newspaper, but kept striking out.

So maybe you can help.

Where did the story of the police canoe fleet and its crackdown on nude river bathers come from?

Feel free to confess the sins of your great-greatgrandparents. The statute of limitations will surely keep their records as unencumbered as a summer dip in the river.

FLOOD VIDEO: Speaking of the river, I did another video on Augusta’s long history of floods. It’s on YouTube at:

YOUR MAIL: Your summer vacation postcards continue to arrive, and I know we’ll soon have all 50 states.

Pat and Gail were on an “extended honeymoon” in Frogmore, S.C. “Couldn’t afford Fripp Island,” they wrote. “What a blast! Next stop: Six Silos Over Hephzibah!”

Ken Gordon, of Augusta, was “having a great time in Williamsburg. Took a Ghost Tour. Very interesting.”

Linda and Jimmie Adams were at Parkview Baseball Field in Fort Wayne, Ind., watching grandson Brian play for the Tincaps, the team owned by the San Diego Padres. “He was picked in the eighth round from UK in 2011,” they write.

TODAY’S JOKE: The new father ran out of the delivery room and announced to the rest of his family: “We had twins!”

The family was so excited they immediately asked, “Who do they look like?”

The father paused, then said, “Each other.”

People haven't changed, they

People haven't changed, they did the same things back then as they do today.

Illegitimate births were far more common, and divorces and separations, were way more numerous than people want to believe.

And there were gay people, and adulters, and criminals, just like back then.

Bulldogs extend winning streak to three

  • Follow College

ATHENS, Ga. — On a day when the leading scorer in the Southeastern Conference was a little off his game, Georgia’s basketball team needed a boost and got it in the form of Nemanja Djurisic’s career-high 21 points.

Georgia forward Nemanja Djurisic attempts a shot over Florida A&M's Walter Davis during the first half.  AJ REYNOLDS/ATHENS BANNER-HERALD
Georgia forward Nemanja Djurisic attempts a shot over Florida A&M's Walter Davis during the first half.

“We need people to step up and score if I am not making baskets,” Kentavious Caldwell-Pope said after scoring a season-low 11 points Saturday in Georgia’s 82-73 win over Florida A&M.

Djurisic grinned sheepishly nearby as Caldwell-Pope bragged on him, but said he could have played a lot better.

“The truth is I have not been playing as well as I can,” he said. After starting eight of Georgia’s first nine games, he has come off the bench during a current three-game winning streak.

“I was struggling,” he said. “My shooting was not as good, and I lost my confidence. It was frustrating, but the coaches and the players were all patient with me.”

Djurisic doesn’t consider himself back at full production yet.

“I just had a lot of opportunities,” he said. “They passed the ball to me, and I was running the floor well. I missed so many easy layups.”

Brandon Morris added 10 points for Georgia (5-7).

Florida A&M (4-8) was led by Muhammad Abdul-Aleem, who came off the bench to score 16 points and grab a game-high 11 rebounds. James Adams added 12 and Markee Teal 10.

Georgia led the entire game, mostly by double figures, but the Rattlers took advantage of a 7-minute cold spell by the Bulldogs in the second half to cut the deficit to six, 53-47, with 12:53 to play.

But Donte’ Williams and Caldwell-Pope combined for three baskets in the paint to push the lead back to 59-47.

Florida A&M made one last surge, cutting into the lead, 78-71, with 42 seconds to go after a basket by Adams. The Rattlers forced a turnover on the inbounds play, but another missed 3 ended the comeback attempt.

Georgia coach Mark Fox was concerned with his team’s lack of maturity.

“We played pretty well offensively in the first half, but we are so immature,” he said. “We obviously did not play well with the lead.

“We are immature in so many ways. As competitors and as people,” Fox continued. “That has to change for us to become a good basketball team.”

The Rattlers hit 7 of 15 3-point shots in the first half, but missed all 11 long-range shots in the second half. Florida A&M also struggled from the line, hitting 12 of 25 attempts.

“Our team shot poorly from the line, and we gave up a lot of 3s,” Rattler scoach Clemon Johnson said. “A major takeaway from this game is that we know that we have the effort and the knowledge that is required to play at a high level. I told my players that if we continue to play like this that the MEAC championship will have to come through Florida A&M this year.”

The first half was a shooting clinic as both teams hit well from beyond the 3-point line. The Bulldogs made 7 of 11 from long range.

Florida A&M’s problem, however, was that it had trouble shooting inside the arc. The Rattlers made 7 of 19 from inside the line, and five of those 2-pointers came in the last 4 minutes of the half.

Georgia’s Caldwell-Pope entered the game as the leading scorer in the Southeastern Conference, averaging 18.1 points per game, but he was scoreless until he converted a breakaway opportunity with a slam dunk with 5:25 to go in the half.

Georgia scored the first eight points of the game. Back-to-back 3s by Florida A&M’s Jamari Bradshaw closed the deficit to 17-15 with 11:27 to go in the half. But a 15-0 run by the Bulldogs pushed Georgia to a 42-24 lead, capped by Djurisic’s 3-pointer with 4:06 to go before halftime.

Georgia led 49-36 at intermission.

The Bulldogs started slowly in the second half, scoring just one field goal in the first 7 minutes.

“In the first half we had a lot of intensity,” Caldwell-Pope said. “In the second half we gave up a lot of easy baskets.”

The Rattlers got within six at 53-47 when Onyekachukwu Odi hit a pair of free throws with 12:53 to play.

Georgia responded with three baskets in the paint, a dunk by Williams, a follow by Caldwell-Pope and a layup by Williams to stretch the lead to 59-47.

“We are getting better as a team,” said Fox. “You didn’t see it in the second half. But we are getting better in spite of ourselves. We have made some progress.”
