Epicurean Jacksonville: December 2009
http://jaxeatdrinkandbemerry.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 1, 2009. Tonight I got to nosh and nibble at III Forks. It seemed like every media outlet was there as well as some of Jacksonville's big spenders. Trying their filet mingon, I found that Capital Grille now has some serious competition in the steak department. Their Kona crusted steak may no longer be king. Their scallops were perfectly cooked, not overdone despite being on a buffet line. III Forks 9822 Tapestry Park Circle Jacksovnille, Fl (on Gate across from Tinseltown)(904) 928-9277.

Epicurean Jacksonville: February 2010
http://jaxeatdrinkandbemerry.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 25, 2010. Spice of the Moment: Spanish Smoked Paprika. Like most Americans my first experience with paprika came on deviled eggs. It didn't taste like much and it was only trotted out for that particular dish. When I experimented in my mother's kitchen, I opened different spices and took a whiff. I even gave the paprika a chance, but it didn't pass the sniff test. I'm gaining an interest in trying to smoke my own paprika, though it really seems involved and I would have to get a smoker...

Epicurean Jacksonville: Eat here: Blue Bamboo
http://jaxeatdrinkandbemerry.blogspot.com/2014/01/eat-here-blue-bamboo.html
Monday, January 27, 2014. Eat here: Blue Bamboo. Five reasons why you should be eating at Jacksonville's Blue Bamboo:. 1- It's a locally owned and operated restaurant on the Southside. In the commercial bustle of Southside, it's sometimes hard to remember that there are locally owned businesses that do a wonderful job. Blue Bamboo is one of those businesses. 2- There isn't anything like it in Jacksonville. 3- It's a classier way to end or begin a night at the movies. 4- Dim Sum Sundays.

Epicurean Jacksonville: Hawkers Asian Street Fare
http://jaxeatdrinkandbemerry.blogspot.com/2014/02/hawkers-asian-street-fare.html
Sunday, February 9, 2014. Hawkers Asian Street Fare. The soft open of Hawkers. Did not disappoint. To be honest, I wasn't expecting much from a space that had doomed countless other ventures, restaurant and otherwise. But I was blown away by the food. Asian fare, so often, is done too broadly, flavors exaggerated, pushing them well past the delicate balance the dishes should have, when they're done right. Hawkers 1001 Park Street, Jacksonville, Florida 32204. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Epicurean Jacksonville: Hawkers Update
http://jaxeatdrinkandbemerry.blogspot.com/2014/02/hawkers-update.html
Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Went back to Hawkers and had a different experience. This time, not as good. They. On only their fourth day of service and I will say that they went to a lot of trouble to make it right. Once we were able to communicate what was wrong, they did their best to make it right and came by several times to make sure we were satisfied. Once in a while, stuff happens. They managed to get the allergy thing right! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Hawkers Asi...

Sunday, June 27, 2010. St Augustine's Casablanca Inn and Eco Tour. For Jacksonvillians, St. Augustine is a popular spot for a short getaway. Their B&Bs have competitive rates, and some even have great last-minute or weekday rates. We opted to go on the weekend. They've got quite a few packages worth looking at— stay for two nights till November 4th and you get a free Eco Tour for Two complete with a bottle of champagne. There are lots of other romance packages to choose from as well. Though dolphins are ...

Epicurean Jacksonville: January 2010
http://jaxeatdrinkandbemerry.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 11, 2010. White Meat Vs. Dark Meat. This week I'm fixing my toasted garlic and smoked paprika boneless chicken thighs. Now chicken thighs tend to put off those that prefer white meat. White meat doesn't have as much flavor as dark because it doesn't have as much fat. Those who prefer white hold that it isn't as greasy and is a better "blank canvas" for flavors. These differences mean that in certain recipes, one or the other is the better choice. If I toss some white meat into the recipe,...
