One Sunday, after visiting the Mountain View Farmer’s Market, we were looking for places to have lunch. We keep our Entertainment Book in the car, and found a coupon for La Fiesta Restaurant, just a few blocks’ drive from the farmer’s market. The restaurant has a special menu on Sunday: a champagne brunch for only $11.95. This was perfect, as our 2-for-1 coupon was for entrees up to $12.
I love food magazines! I love drooling over recipes and pictures and reading about other people’s experiences at restaurants or eating in a different country. Two of my absolutely favorite food mags are “Fine Cooking” and “Saveur.” They are both quite different but appeal to me for their beautiful pictures, content and recipes.
Having said that, I’m sorry to say that I’m no longer subscribed to either. No, it’s not because I don’t like the magazines, it’s mainly because I have many back issues as I’ve been subscribed for many years and I don’t cook enough with the ones I already own (yeah, I’m one of those who can’t get rid of old issues).
In our first post on getting buzzed at TomatoFest in Carmel Valley, we talked about the amazing foods and drinks we experienced in the various Chef and Wine Tents. But that was just the festival part of TomatoFest. Today, I want to talk about the whole reason there is a TomatoFest, the tomatoes. It’s why I really wanted to go to TomatoFest in the first place, ever since I found out about it.
I am TOMATOED OUT!
