To my palate, with love...: June 2011

Our Mission

Possessing a strong appetite for life is crucial in this world. Like so many others, we crave knowledge and experience with those things that heighten the senses. Food is one of our passions and we aim to share and explore this culinary world with you. We believe in the power of food… it is a common denominator among all living things. Cooking is a release, an art, a sign of love or an offering of peace.

In attempts to conjure an approach for our blog, we spent quite a bit of time brainstorming about what we intended to cover. How was this blog going to connect us to the food world? How would we write in a way that brought our experiences together for our readers? We wanted to stay true to food’s natural “roots” (no pun intended) while showing how much fun it is to learn and explore new ingredients, dishes, restaurants and recipes while connecting with the Boston community.

HOT Damn BBQ

I LOVE the summer. I adore bare skin, girls in sundresses, boys in shades, open air car rides, sun drenched beach trips, and oh yeah....BBQ's.

I've recently hit the foodie jackpot as I have been invited to the Forno Italian BBQ at our friends' Anthony and Kara's home in Hamilton which is one of the most charming and scenic of Massachusetts coastal towns on the North Shore.

I plan to report back with full documentation of all the gorgeous food and all the happy faces.

Dear Palate,

How I will love you so with...

Wood Grilled Eel in a Terriyaki Ginger Glaze, maiz asado con aioli y queso de conchita, braised rabbit head, wood fired Duxbury lobsta and so much, much more.

Until next time.....
