Three Wines Under $10 for Valentine’s Day

While we love a leisurely stroll through a Lee’s or Total Wine here in Las Vegas to pick out an interesting bottle (or three) of special occasion wine, those bottles often cost us $20 or more per bottle. But we don’t always have the time to peruse the aisles. We also love a bargain, two [ READ MORE ]

Albertsons

Planning a Vegas wedding and don’t have the time, a wedding planner or an inner Martha Stewart to tend to the details? Albertsons could very well be your next best friend. Albertsons invited us to meet with them to discuss their move into full-service wedding and party planning, and we were quite impressed. Their competition-level [ READ MORE ]

Korean Spicy Crab – Gye Muchim

I love taking my time to browse the aisles of the wonderful markets in Las Vegas Chinatown. Often, something new to me will catch my eye that I can’t resist trying. This treasure, from the fresh kimchi deli-counter in the Greenland Korean Market might be the most remarkable find yet. Blue crabs (the kind used [ READ MORE ]

Roasted New Mexico Green Chilis

If you live in Las Vegas, mark your calendar, especially if you are a fan of those celebrated roasted green chilis from Hatch, New Mexico. On Saturday, August 13th starting at 6:00AM, the Albertsons at 1650 N. Buffalo Drive will be doing their annual Hatch Chili Roasting. Shoppers can buy a 30 pound bag of [ READ MORE ]

King Oyster Mushrooms

The produce departments in our local Las Vegas Asian grocery stores fascinate me. I’m always finding wonderful things I’ve never cooked before. These super-sized, chubby mushrooms with meaty, six inch stems recently caught my eye during one of my grocery trips to Korea Town. I’ve seen these many times before but this time I decided [ READ MORE ]

Korean Braised Pork Belly

The Koreans love their pork belly. They braise, barbecue, grill and stir fry it. When pork belly is cured and smoked, it becomes Western-style bacon. For this recipe and many other Asian pork belly recipes, uncured, unsmoked, fresh pork belly is used. If you are lucky enough to live in a city with an Asian [ READ MORE ]

New California Wines for Spring

The wine experts at Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Markets have given us yet another reason to love them, a new selection of twenty-seven California wines, just in time for spring and summer, all under $20. We were thrilled to come across these new California selections. We love the Cabernet from I♥CA. It’s a soft, lightly [ READ MORE ]

Zaytoon Market and Restaurant

A recent craving for falafel lead us to Zaytoon, an absolute gem of a family owned and operated neighborhood restaurant and grocery store specializing in Persian cuisine on the west side of town on South Durango across from Desert Breeze Park. This beautiful market and casual restaurant, perfumed with the exotic aromas of Middle Eastern [ READ MORE ]

The Butcher Block

The various Asian and Mexican markets in Vegas house some fine meat and seafood counters, but my on-going search for slab bacon lead me to the family owned Butcher Block on the southwest side of town. I hit the jackpot. Not only did I find lovely applewood smoked slab bacon, I also found a source [ READ MORE ]

Wines We Like For Under $10.00 (under $5.00, too!)

I appreciate pricey bottles of luscious French Bordeaux or an elegant Alsatian Riesling as much as the next wine lover, particularly with a special meal or dining out but I’m a practical wino and I’m always excited when I find a bargain bottle of wine that is every bit as good as some costing over [ READ MORE ]
