Link of the Day [6.02.08]

Today’s link is to Krispy Kreme in Japam. What’s so special about that? I don’t know but it’s interesting to me. I’m wondering about the flavors they have. Do they go beyond glazed? From looking at the home page picture, I think they do things a little differently than they do here.

Dried squid flavor anyone?

Eats

Me and Marge from the Fish Tank spent the day looking for some eats.

It started with the need for some noodles. Obviously, with a post about ramen, that’s what I wanted. There really ain’t none in Bmore except for Mimoto. It doesn’t open until 5:00 pm on a saturday, but we were hungry too much earlier.

So we get to Edo Mae Sushi in Owings Mills, because they had soba as well as udon. Marge loves it cold, and that’s what we had. Plus a sunshine roll which was too much.

Then we get some coffee at the usual haunt. Yet, the coffee was too sweet (for Marge).

So we head back home, but she’s locked out. We wander around a bit and end up at Edo Sushi for a snack: a beer, sashimi and unagi.

That’s a lot of eating today. We’re gonna look for that ramen later next week. And perhaps more cold soba.

I know I blogged this before, but since I had virtually no audience then, I should tell you about the wonderfulSun, Moon, and Stars Cafe right in my backyard. Just a quick run out the back door. Go there now.

Yummy. Yummy. Yummy. I got love in my tummy.

The best cookies in Baltimore. They are crisp and buttery. I had an discussion on why they are the best cookies and it comes down to there crispy, crunchiness. Thank god for the end of the soft cookie era.

Here’s a recipe for crispy chocalate chip cookies from Alton Brown. If you make some, please send them my way.
