Inspired by their years catering parties, chefs Stuart Brioza and Nicole Krasinski use dim sum style carts to offer guests small but finely crafted dishes ranging from Potato Chips with Crème Fraiche and Cured Trout Roe, to Black Butter-Balsamic Figs with Wagon Wheel Cheese Fondue, to their famous savory pancakes (such as Chanterelle Pancakes with Lardo and Maple Vinegar), along with a menu of more substantial dishes such as their signature fried quail with stewed onions. Their singular and original approach to cooking, which expertly blends seemingly disparate influences, flavors, and textures, is a style that has influenced other restaurants throughout the country and is beloved by diners, chefs, and critics alike. In the debut cookbook from this acclaimed restaurant, Brioza and Krasinski share recipes for their most popular dishes along with stunning photography, and inspire readers to craft an unforgettable meal of textures, temperatures, aromas, and colors that excite all of the senses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Stories of immigration, culture-clash . . . and old-fashioned hard work are told through the history of Houston’s long-gone, but still-beloved restaurants.” —Yesterday’s America With more than fourteen thousand eating establishments covering seventy different ethnic cuisines, Houston is a foodie town. But even in a place where eating out is a way of life and restaurants come and go, there were some iconic spots that earned a special place in the hearts and stomachs of locals. Maxim’s taught overnight millionaires how to handle meals that came with three forks. The Trader Vic’s at the Shamrock offered dedicated homebodies a chance for the exotic, and Sonny Look’s Sirloin Inn maintained the reputation of a city of steakhouses. From Alfred’s Delicatessen to Youngblood’s Fried Chicken, Paul and Christiane Galvani celebrate the stories and recipes of Houston’s fondly remembered tastemakers. “In the book, the Galvanis share Houston’s history and love of food. They take the reader on the banks of the bayou when the city received its first inhabitants before time hopping from the Original Mexican Restaurant to The Original Kelley’s Steakhouse. Other stops include Alfred’s Delicatessen and the San Jacinto Inn.” —Houston Business Journal

Book excerpt: In these essays, Pam Houston treats us to a celebration of her real-life adventures which range over five years and five continents. But whatever Houston's destination - whether Bhutan or Bolivia or Traverse City - it is only the starting point from which she extracts her personal emotional journey. She is searching here for a place - not too safe but not too threatening - from which to negotiate mountain goats and river ice, camping trips and wine. Through her we meet some good dogs, a few good men, and the occasional grizzly. There's a horse named Roany with the presence of a Zen master. And there's a Buddhist named Karma, all proving what Houston has always suspected: fiction has nothing on real life.

Download or read book The Firat Guide written by Ibrahim Firat and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Firat Guide is a tool, first of its kind, to supplement the process that every family goes through when preparing a middle school student to enter private high school. The Firat Guide answers those questions that run through every parent and student's mind: Where do we start? What schools are the best? Should I send my child to the school that all his or her friends are attending? What is the value of each school? Cost vs. Benefits? How will the school we choose affect our child's extracurricular activities? And many more... Ibrahim Firat, President and CEO of Firat Educational Solutions, LLC, is the author of The Firat Guide, and it is subjective. The Firat Guide will discuss the strengths of each school. There is no one school that is the best school for all students reading The Firat Guide. Firat Educational Solutions, LLC and Ibrahim Firat have always had the philosophy that each student is different, and there is a school for each. Each student has particular goals, interests, personalities, and learning requirements. The Firat Guide will help you decide which school is right for your child. The Firat Guide will also assist you in the process of choosing the schools to which you would like to apply, tips on the application process, test taking timelines for entrance exams, how to decide which school to actually attend once accepted, and how to successfully transition from the middle school to the high school mindset. Leave behind the rumors and what everybody else has said. Read The Firat Guide - in its entirety. Read the reviews of the schools that you have been considering for your child. Take notes. Read the reviews of the schools which you have not originally considered. You may find a nuance or two that resonate - not only with you but with your child. Take notes. Once the guide is finished, speak to your family and compare notes (everyone in the household must "buy in" to this process). Discuss the pros and cons of each school under consideration with your family. Ask for his/her opinion - have him/her explain reasons. Create a list of 3-6 high schools, and take the next steps to prep. The Firat Guide started out as a compiled list of schools and data. Firat Educational Solutions, LLC (FES) gathered data from each of the private high schools in the Greater Houston Area. This data included items such as number of students, student-to-teacher ratios, religious affiliations, and much more. This data, along with a questionnaire, was sent out to the admission directors of each of the private schools. The questionnaire asked them to discuss some main points about their schools, and they were asked to update the data that we sent them from their websites, if needed. The Firat Guide is more up-to-date than many of the school websites.

A chapter on retail sources is packed with advice: where to buy native or organically raised plants; how to find specialty shops and nurseries devoted to specific kinds of plants, such as African violets, bonsai, tropicals, roses, orchids, and cacti;· which retailers offer fountains, benches, sculptures, and antique garden accessories. At the end of the book, Houston steers readers to her recommended garden books and websites. Anyone interested in exploring the gardening scene in Houston and surrounding areas—whether resident or visitor, participant or spectator—will discover in this book much to do and share with family, friends, and fellow gardeners.
