Due to rising fuel costs, wedding saving and good old saving...the FFF has taken a serious foodie hit....We've been too broke to enjoy our fancy feasts!
Alas, this is very sad, but our hope for hitting up some more gourmet experiences...will never die. :)
This has also force us to be more creative. I realized that being a foodie doesn't always have to be about dining in fancy schmancy restaurants...it is about enjoying fabulous food!
Even if it is considered, "too healthy" or you are on a budget...it can all be fabulous!
Today I went to the brand new Asian market, Park and Shop (E.30th street downtown off Chester) with my lovely co-worker Jean. I was on the hunt for Tofu Shirataki noodles (I read about them on HungryGirl.com they are very low calorie, low carb noodles and I am trying to fit into a gorgeous wedding dress). I did not find the noodles, which at first made me very sad. What I did find, ahhhhh so much better.
I found 0 calorie 0 carb noodles, called, Yam Noodles! I have read that these don't taste like much, but they absorb any flavor you can throw at them! I can't wait to try these out in a stir fry or with some peanut sauce.
But wait there is more....
The Park and Shop Market was awesome! They had a whole room devoted to noodles, and the entire store is as large as a normal supermarket. I wish I would have had more time to shop there. Everything was amazing! There was rows and rows of tea, exotic fish, meat and vegetables, a prepared food section that had everything from the fantastic looking (I think I drooled a little) Roast Duck (Only $9.75 for a whole duck mmmm dinner for me and Steve) to the extremely odd...Cuttle Fish. I think I am going too avoid that one. :)
Best of all, everything is very inexpensive! I even saw one of my healthy staples, Laughing Cow Cheese for only $2.55 (normally $3.99 at Giant Eagle).
I am very excited to head back, and am taking the lovely foodie Amy with me next chance I get!

Star at Playhouse Square
I adore Playhouse Square. I have the fondest memories of heading there when I was a “little Krista” to see the Nutcracker at Christmastime or the summer my Mom bought us a multi-show pass and we got to see everything from, Little Women to The Hobbit. Fortunately, these days I am often lucky enough to receive tickets to many shows at fabulous PHS courtesy of my office. Thanks office! ;)
Last night, my Mom, Brittney and I were headed to the State Theater to see, Mama Mia (It was amazing! It is my new favorite musical!). We decided to stop at Star restaurant before the show. Brittney and I have been once before when we went to see the Lion King (also an awesome show…not just for kids!), and enjoyed it very much, but I was dying to try it again.
I love the Star restaurant; it is not only extremely conveniently located in Playhouse Square, but the ambiance, food and service is remarkable! I love any restaraunt that features live piano playing. It is also a very romantic spot for a date, if you can wrangle your man into seeing a play (I never have that problem with Steve :) ). We were greeted by an incredibly friendly server and the rest of the experience went by way too quickly. We all ordered salads, I was incredibly happy with my Bibb Salad with fresh goat cheese and toasted pine nuts topped off with balsamic vinaigrette. As Brittney put it, “You adore salads like this in restaurants, and you never make them at home.” Well, I’ve definitely tried to repeat these at home, but they are never as good. Brittney and Mom ordered the Spinach Salad with red onion, strawberries and feta cheese, tossed with apple cider vinaigrette. They both enjoyed them immensely.
For the main event, we all enjoyed the lighter side of the menu. Mom ordered the Ahi Tuna crusted with sesame seeds and bok choy, Brittney ordered the Chicken with ratatouille tomato with olive tapenade and I ordered the Salmon with greens, citrus, cous cous and roasted red pepper sauce. Of course, we all shared our fabulous entrees. The most adventurous dish for me was Brittney’s and I was instantly a little jealous. According to my sister, I often order the wrong thing and then fall in love with someone else’s entrée-be prepared if you go out to eat with me. I also enjoyed my salmon very much, it was not fishy-just salty, and sweet and went perfectly with the roasted red pepper sauce. Mom’s entrée was also very good and once Steve hears about it, he will be quite sad he missed out on it (he loves Ahi Tuna).
Our time began to run out, because the show was starting, but we still wanted to check out the dessert menu. Due to my desire to want to save money and shrink inches from my waist (wedding), I opted out of ordering any. I did get to try a bite of the Cheesecake Britney ordered and the Mango Tear Drop (a gelatin/flan-like dessert) Mom ordered. The Mango Tear Drop was amazing. I believe the desserts there change regularly for the seasons…so I would head to Star and try that Mango Tear Drop before it disappears.
As far as the Mama Mia performance, it was absolutely wonderful and left my Mom dancing to what else, but the “Dancing Queen” in the aisle of the theater. At first I was thinking “Oh I can’t take her anywhere” :) and then I looked over and EVERY Mom was dancing in the aisle. The show is hilarious, cute and full of catchy ABBA songs. Girls, take your Moms to see it, you won’t regret it!
Taking my bow,
Krista

Four rules for the Flying Fig
There are four rules to live by when going out.
1) Bring Friends
2) Everyone order something different
3) Share it all
4) Leave Happy
I put these rules to the test last Sunday at the Flying Fig, a small eatery & bar on the west side. It may be a small eatery, but do not be afraid to bring friends, family, acquaintances, or random people off the street, they have plenty of space for everyone. I love to try as many things as I can when I go out, to the displeasure of my bathroom scale (I would hate to deprive myself of the chance to try a dish). With an ever changing menu full of fresh locally grown delights, the same experience is never had twice. Unfortunately, that also means you had better try that mouthwatering special or seasonal favorite before it is gone.. which brings us to rule 2. The menu is not huge; it is large enough to have all the right things but still small enough to make the choices simple (well everything is good so it is not too simple). There is something for every taste. Basic steak or pork chop for the meat and potatoes type (which are closer to decadently mouthwatering than basic), scallops for those looking for a bit of seafood, or something more exotic.
The best thing about the Fig is the selection of small plates. They allow you to try a bit of everything without breaking your scale, or your wallet. Follow rule 2, and have everyone order a different selection of smalls, then proceed to rule 3. If something in particular jumps off your plate, or your friends, you can always order a second round.
My favorite of the smalls is the Medjool Dates-plump dates wrapped in smoked bacon and stuffed with chorizo (I almost had to break rule 3, well in fact I tried, but one was poached while I was distracted). These beauties fill your mouth with the sweetness of the date, smokiness of the bacon and the slight spice of the chorizo. It is a dish to be savored, allowing first one then another flavor spread over your tongue until you lose track of where you are where you came from; excited about where it will take you next. When you finally find yourself back to your seat, it is time for another bite.
The seared scallops with braised beef are also very good with a delightful contrast between the scallop and beef, although the spotlight of the dish is stolen by its side dish. If, you can really call the horseradish potato puree a side dish. It is simple yet packs a lot of flavor; I have even tried to remake it at home with varying degrees of success. It is not uncommon at the Fig for a side to steal the show.
The Sautéed Plum Creek Farm Chicken Livers, which were done to perfection, were served on a bed of spinach with caramelized onions, smoked bacon, and creamy goat cheese (which thankfully, I was able to escape without sharing, we will not tell rule 3).
The homemade Kim Chee, while a little less spicy than expected, offered a nice contrast to its main dish the crusted Tofu. Yes tofu, I know what many of you are thinking. "Tofu is bland and only fit for those health nuts on a calorie counting diet" ..well you would be wrong. This tofu has flavor, let me repeat that, it has flavor. It is good, trust me, and if you do not want to trust me go with someone who does and sneak a bit. I will not be looking, but remember, I told you so.
One down side to sampling a bit of everything is when the time for dessert comes around. You may be too full... do not let this happen to you. Pace yourself, and always remember there is more to come. It would be a shame to reach the final stretch and have to watch as your friends dig into their fig ice cream or molten chocolate cake.
If you follow rules 1 through 3 I promise number 4 will take care of itself.
Cheers,
Steve

87 West 2 Wine Bar
My good buddy, Stacey surprised me last night by meeting me at Crocker Park. Stacey lives in Akron, so anytime she journeys to my neck of the woods, I jump at the chance to hang with her. I was in Westlake getting my bridesmaid dress fitted by the lovely ladies at A Brides Design (they are super nice there...check them out), and when I heard from Stacey, it was the perfect excuse to meet for dinner. On an impulse, we decided to head over to the 87 West 2 wine bar located right in Crocker Park. I have to confess, I’ve been dying to head there ever since Amy told me that it was fabulous (she was lucky enough to go to the soft opening a few months ago).
The exterior of the building is just as gorgeous as the interior. Walking up to the bar I caught the strong smell of cedar (which has always been a favorite scent of mine) from the cedar panels covering the building.
Since it was Tuesday night, there was a decent crowd, but we definitely had plenty of space, so we sat down right away. Our server immediately presented us with some ice water containing cucumber slices; a nice change from the old lemon or lime typically seen in ice water. Stacey ordered the margarita (Tuesday nights is margarita and sangria night $6 a piece. There are specials all nights of the week) and I ordered the house white wine. Both drinks were presented nicely and tasted delicious. Once we opened the menu, Stacey and I knew we were going to have a tough time. There were sooo many good looking items it was so hard to choose. Stacey chose the Crab cake Trio and the Crispy Fair Fries. I ordered the Chorizo and Chevre “Hanky Pankys” and the Poached Pear & Walnut Crusted Chevre Salad. I have a thing for Chevre….
When the food came out, all of it was presented beautifully. I loved the salad it was awesome! However, Stacey looked a little confused. The server brought Stacey the Sweep Lump Crabmeat Tacos instead of the Crab cakes. Once we let her know, she replaced the tacos with the Crab cakes incredibly quickly. I was lucky enough to try a bite of Stacey’s Crab cakes. I was instantly jealous that I didn’t order them. They were some of the best Crab cakes I’ve ever had. *Background info on “Krista’s thing with Crab cakes”…I don’t usually like Crab cakes because they are typically not made with the leg meat…so instead of enjoying the delicious sweet taste I adore in crab legs they are a bit too fishy for me. The Crab cakes at 87 West 2 are so sweet they reminded me of scallops. Yay! Stacey was very happy with them. I adored my Poached Pear Salad, but I wasn’t the biggest fan of the “Hanky Pankys”. I think that they would make an amazing late night snack (after a lot of drinking), but they were way to heavy and rich for me last night. I decided to also order some Vietnamese Battered Calamari, and it was great, the perfect amount of spicy, sweet and crunchy.
Right around my second glass of wine, Stacey and I got a nice surprise visit from fellow foodie, Amy. We couldn’t temp her into ordering anything (the girl has amazing willpower), but we had a great time rounding off the evening with her.
All in all, I really enjoyed 87 West 2 wine bar and I will definitely be back.

Sweet Melissa's Part Deux
A few weekends ago I decided to take a much needed study break from a professional certification exam I was preparing for so who do I call? My mom of course! What my mom didn't know when she agreed to make the drive to Rocky River for lunch is that in a die hard effort to conserve gas I've been taking the bus to work and walking or biking anywhere else my legs can physically take me. This day was no different and because we would be walking, what better local place to go then Sweet Melissa's. You may recall Krista, Steve and I had given Sweet Mel's a try when they first opened so I was eager to go back and try some of their other menu items.
When we got to Sweet Melissa's it was bustling with couples, children and old folks of all types enjoying a beautiful summer's day lunch. We began by quenching our worked up thirst with the mango iced tea which was absolutely refreshing without being overpowering. We also sampled some of the day's fresh baked banana nut muffins and chocolate chip, coconut scones. My mom and I both love scones, but I must say that the perfectly moist sugar coated banana nut muffins were the pastry of choice that really tested my will power.
As delicious as the scones and muffins were I was starving and ready to get down to business. I had decided my third hour into studying that morning that there would be absolutely no fru-fru grilled chicken and vegetables or salad for me today. I was going to indulge in a delicious (yet still nutritious) Roasted Veggie Burger. Hillary's Roasted Veggie Burger to be exact complete with baby arugula, red onion vinaigrette and sharp white cheddar on multi-grain. For anyone who thinks veggie burgers are rabbit food, think again! This veggie burger resembled more of a giant crab cake both in appearance and consistency and was clearly more than going to fill my growling stomach. The flavor of the burger was so amazing I could have easily eaten it without all the trimmings and been satisfied, but the addition of tomatoes, pickles, arugula, white cheddar etc. made this far superior to any beef, turkey or veggie burger I've ever feasted on. Not to mention the warm chips they serve atop the sandwich add a nice little crunch since I'm one of those weird people who puts chips on my sandwiches from time to time just to see what will happen.
My mom went for Jen's BLT which arrived stacked sky high on Italian white with thick pieces of applewood smoked bacon, roasted tomato, lettuce and avocado. It was pretty apparent she enjoyed her sandwich plus it was amusing to see if she could actually get her mouth open wide enough to take bite after bite without her jaw locking up.
Needless to say we really enjoyed our lunch at Sweet Melissa's and it's always nice to have great local places close to home to grab a last minute bite to eat or entertain friends and family.
Smell ya later!

Juniper Grille
Last week a co-worker and I decided to venture away from our section of town and up to Juniper Grille on Carnegie for lunch. Juniper Grille is quite the downtown breakfast and lunch hot spot known for it's moderate prices and delicious food. With items like Spanish Chorizo Bake, Chicken and Brie Wrap and Agnolotti Pasta, there is sure to be a menu item to please every palate.
On this particular sunny afternoon, I decided to stick with a classic lunch staple, the BBQ Grilled Chicken Salad. This salad was a perfect lunch size portion and came with delicious Ranch dressing. The BBQ chicken was extremely moist and appeared to look just liked BBQ pulled pork and was atop a bed of crispy greens.
My co-worker enjoyed the Chicken and Brie Wrap which consists of roasted chicken, caramelized onions, roasted tomatoes and brie cheese served with pesto mayo and sweet potato fries.
I very much enjoyed my experience at Juniper Grille and would love to gather the foodies to meet for Cinnamon Raisin French Toast, Banana Pecan Pancakes or a traditional omelet some weekend morning soon!
My only warning about Juniper Grille is go early as the adjoining parking lot fills up very fast and you'll find yourself paying extra to park in the lot if you don't score the first come first serve available space.
