Silvi’s Southside Kitchen

A few days ago we read an article about Silvi’s Southside Kitchen. A new Mexican restaurant owned and operated by a fellow Texan. Bingo, I thought, maybe someone who makes food like what I grew up on and crave. So we searched for their website online and found the menu to be what we wanted. But the question was, would it taste like home.

Mekong Restaurant, Pittsburgh, PA

We stopped into Mekong Asian Restaurant on Potomac Avenue after a movie premier for some late night chow. Asian food is delicious and always appropriate when you have the late-night munchies.

McCormick and Schmicks, Southside, PA

I’ve been to a lot of different seafood restaurants in and around town, but somehow, McCormick and Schmick’s had eluded me- until now. I had the opportunity to have lunch at the seafood restaurant in the Southside Works, and let me tell you, it was delicious.

World’s Best Peanut Butter Cookies

Peanut butter cookies bring back good memories for me as a kid- I can remember coming home from school, and finding fresh cookies on a plate that my mother had baked. This peanut butter cookie recipe is fantastic.

Salmon Salad

Do you like tuna salad? Well, salmon salad is even better. Whenever I fabricate salmon for grilling or pan-searing, I always have various parts left-over. I never throw this extra salmon away… it’s too valuable!
