When you're in the area check out this bakery: The North Bend Bakery (formerly Georgia's and George's).
It's been in the same location for 90 years so it's a bit of an institution in the area. We've visited over the years

Quarantine: Chicken Tikka Masala.
The masala was from a jar but the taste was surprisingly all Indian. Not bad for a homemade classic of Indian cuisine. The tikka masala sauce used is widely available and, as pictured, is prepared after our

Takeaway: Grand Central Baking Co.
This location, in the Wedgewood neighborhood, has been there for about a year but this was our first visit to this location.

Filipino takeaway: Archipelago.
Before COVID-19 hit, I had snagged a very hard to come by reservation at this well regarded restaurant with terribly limited seating. Alas....the reservation was cancelled so the next best thing was to sample their Balikbayan Box. Didn't

Quarantine: Anelli with Roasted Cauliflower.
Always surprised how good gluten free pasta can taste and this one was no exception. The highlight of the dish, however, was the roasted garlic and cauliflower with walnuts. Hard to beat that combo!
Once again, the
