The idea for the won-taco was born out of a contingency plan that we didn’t end up needing. Mack and I bought a bunch of wontons wrappers when we were out shopping for the raviolis as a back-up plan just in case the pasta didn’t turn out well. (Oh by the way, you can substitute […]
The first time I had butternut squash ravioli was a few years ago at a restaurant in SF called Kuleto’s. It was my friend Jana’s birthday and she invited me and a few of our friends to dinner. Jana worked at Kuleto’s at the time and so she knew the menu inside and out. She […]

I first got the idea for this recipe from my good friend, Steve who made a similar baked chicken dish for me one time when […]
Well I’m very pleased to be writing my first blog entry ever today. Mack and I have been talking about starting a food blog for a while now, so I’m very excited to actually be doing this. We love food and cooking and it feels great to finally have an appropriate place to share our […]
