The revamp of Drumlin in Shoreline by chef Zephyr Paquette is a welcome addition to dining options north of Seattle. It's a cozy, friendly cocktail den with great food. The spring menu is about to debut, but I hope the roasted carrots with maple yogurt, pomegranate molasses, and feta stick around. Ditto the beluga lentils with sausage, kale, and bacon, and the lemon pepper linguine with smoked salmon. Less

WHOLE HOG FUTURES REPORT (pt 1 of 3): first visit to Scott's in Hemingway, SC, since it reopened last year. Happy to report those long strands of wood-cooked whole hog are as juicy, smoky and delicious as ever.

My latest review for @chicagomag is of @ilcarciofochicago — the big and very popular new restaurant from the wonderful @instaflamm. I found it a good spot with some standout Roman dishes, and I think it’ll become a very good restaurant once the staff gels and learns the moves. So thankful to Joe for taking my interview call when he was on a celebratory trip in Italy with @tonymantuano and @missyarobbins. Also thankful to my editors, whose notes helped me tighten and focus the piece. Pix: @jeff_marini, link in bio. Less

Here’s the progressive meal of my week: a Martinez at @bisouschicago (thx @amycavanaugh, discreetly looked up best bars before ordering); a toro handroll or three from @norikochicago; sinuous poratta and a Tamil street snack made from cabbage/mushroom fritters disintegrating in gravy from @thalaivasindiankitchen Less

Home Cooking Sessions: Chicken and Wild Mushroom Vol-au-Vent. Full recipe up on Substack, link in bio! ♥️
-
I recently had an amazing lunch at @helenedarrozeattheconnaught and got to try one of Helene’s latest creations. Her rabbit and lobster Vol-au-Vent with wild mushrooms. It was phenomenal and it’s been on my mind to attempt at home for a while. My version though, omits the rabbit and lobster but retains some of the other delicious elements. The golden buttery puff pastry, a velvety, deeply savoury filling and lots of wild mushrooms. I sautéed the morels in bone marrow and made a crispy leek topping using the residual marrow at the end. This thing was super satisfying and actually pretty simple to do once you break down all the steps. For the full step-by-step method and long form video, head over to my substack where I get into the details - link in bio! #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽‍♂️
