After all, Why should you cook?  

UNDERGROUND WINE TASTING DINNER 

Gamble House  

Saturday, February 9, 2013  

 

This Gem in Beverly Hills was built by Greene & Greene, best known for The Gamble House in Pasadena.
Originally this house was built in down town
Los Angeles and moved to Beverly Hills when there were still more orange groves than houses.
The house has been lovingly maintained and exudes the
beauty and warmth evocative of the best in Arts and Crafts architecture.

As always we will be serving five courses paired with some unusual wines.

The final menu will be posted soon.

SUPER BOWL PARTY

The Super Bowl is just around the corner. No I can't tell you who may be in it! But this is my favorite all time Chili recipe from 72 Market Street.  Back in the day, this was the recipe that all of my friends came to expect at the Maltman Street open house extravaganzas.  Try it and you are sure to make your party a winner.  And don't feel you have to do everything - have someone else make the Jalapeno & cheese corn bread! (Recipe upon request!) 

 

72 MARKET STREET KICK-ASS CHILI

 

1/4 pound bacon, diced

3 pounds beef stew meat, chili grind

1 1/2 pounds pork butt, chili grind

2 tablespoons peanut oil

1 2/3 cups chopped white onions

2 jalapenos, diced

1 3/4 teaspoons oregano

1 teaspoon cumin

2 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh New Mexico serrano or California green chiles

2 1/2 tablespoons ground pasilla chiles

1 1/4 tablespoons cayenne

1 3/4 tablespoons chopped garlic

Salt

1 (16-ounce) can tomato puree

1 pound plum tomatoes, diced

6 tablespoons water

1 1/4 cups ale

3/4 tablespoon lemon juice
