From time to time, people have said I'm a good cook. But I think of it more as finding good recipes. Recipes that don't have super complex ingredients and deliver good flavor. I enjoy the search. For the last few years, we typically will get a bulk order of beef from a friend that raises steers. We are going to eat beef and it's our modest effort to buy local and lessen the impact. When you buy in bulk, you end up with some cuts of beef that can be a bit tougher to turn into something yummy that the family will enjoy. So I'm often searching for new recipes for those cuts and a thick and lean Sirloin Tip Roast can be in that category. We are approaching that bulk purchase time of year again so I'm trying to empty out the freezer and decided I'd pull said roast from the freezer and look up a recipe. It was a rainy weekend so it seemed like a good chance to fill up the house with that classic pot roast aroma. This recipe from Sunday Supp Movement reall
With young children, opportunties to have a nice dinner out with your spouse can be few and far between. Therefore, I am typically reluctant to try a new restaurant at the risk of having a less than satisfactory meal during one of these precious evenings. That's why I am pleased to share our positive experience while dining at the Kensington Grille in Appleton recently. I had the grilled ahi tuna over wasabi risotta and it was absolutely delicious. The waitress was very helpful and knowledgeable about the entrees. We also sampled the clam chowder which was delicious as well. Overall, my wife and I were very pleased and definitely look forward to going there again. It provided an atmosphere of fine dining while having reasonable prices and what I considered bigger portions than your typical fine dining experience. Here is their website and it happens to be convienently located near a wine bar as well. http://www.thekensingtongrille.com/
