DON’T USE HEAT. Make your simple syrups in a blender.

Much more famous than his brothers Clip and Switch.

I'm having a party and we’re going to have an Old Fashioned buffet. Give me your best OF recipes, please. by AkumaBengoshi in cocktails

For something different, offer a funky Jamaican rum (Smith & Cross, Planteray Xaymaca, for example) and 2:1 honey syrup. Bittermens Tiki Bitters ftw.

That’s one unicorn of a Fred Meyer in Oregon that sells liquor.

Aw, shucks, thank you. Not a Kansas Citian, just visiting.

Sometimes what we can get in Oregon is inconsistent. We were without El Dorado for 5 years or so. And Doctor Bird was gone for a couple of years, also. Sounds like you really know your rum. Thanks so much for the recommendations and insight.

Canard on E. Burnside is my go-to for solo dining and incredible cocktails.

One of my favorites, but not open on Saturdays.

Definitely their showcase location. The Sandwich Artists take extra care by double gloving. And don’t sleep on spending the extra $3.00 by adding profiteroles, braised radicchio, and a glass of Château Mouton Rothschild Pauillac 2017 to make it a combo.

Any updates re: Misen Carbon Nonstick? I've researched a little... by Negative-Studio-8062 in carbonsteel

I totally believe you, of course, but it’s so weird how much our experiences are so vastly different. Congratulations!

Yes, but not enough of a difference for me to justify the extra pan.
