Principal purpose is to transfer a thing of value to the recipient to stimulate or carry out a public purpose and substantial involvement is anticipated between the agency and the recipient.
A formal agreement available for cooperative research authorized by the Federal Technology Transfer Act of 1986. Two aspects of a CRADA make it unique. First, it gives the cooperator the right to negotiate an exclusive license in at least one field of use to any ARS solely owned invention(s) or jointly-owned invention(s) conceived or reduced to practice under the scope of work of the CRADA. Second, it permits ARS, at its option, to keep information developed under the CRADA confidential for up to five (5) years if such information would have been proprietary had it been generated solely by the cooperator.
ARS is required to keep confidential, indefinitely, any proprietary information given to ARS directly by the Cooperator, unless the information becomes publicly available from a source other than ARS. CRADAs are appropriate vehicles for: a) Transfer and/or further development of ARS technology, b) Research combining ARS' and a Cooperator's intellectual property or technology, and c) Discovery and development of new and/or improved products and or services.
Principal purpose is to transfer a thing of value (money, property, services, etc.) to the recipient to stimulate or carry out a public purpose with no substantial involvement anticipated between the agency and the recipient.
ARS can enter into a reimbursable agreement with another agency of the U. S. Department of Agriculture or an agency of another Department of the Federal government to provide services, supplies, and equipment requested by the ordering/requisitioning agency. The legal authority for entering into this type of agreement is normally 31 USC 1535, as amended by Public Law 97-332. This statute is commonly referred to as 'The Economy Act'. When the ordering agency has broader authority, e.g. multi-year spending authority, it overrides the fund availability time limits in The Economy Act and becomes the operative authority for both parties.
An agreement between ARS and another party that sets out, in very broad, general terms, a plan for the parties to coordinate their efforts on projects of mutual interest.
Material Transfer Agreement - is used when a scientist has a need to transfer material to a non-ARS organization or receive material from a non-ARS organization. MTAs are used to maintain control over the material, and avoid public disclosure.
Material Transfer Research Agreement - is an Agreement that broadens the scope of the typical MTA Agreement. The MTRA allows for cooperative research as part of the Transfer of Materials. The MTRA also allows for ARS scientist to receive funds to support research conducted as part of the Material Transfer.
An agreement between ARS and another party(s) that describes in detail a jointly planned and executed project of mutual interest. All parties contribute resources and benefit independently in the outcome of the project.
Agreement between ARS and a Sponsoring Organization that involves cooperative research of mutual interest between both parties where the Sponsor pays when billed by ARS for costs incurred in performance of project. Awarded under the authority of 7 USC 450a.
Agreement between the Agency and State Cooperative Institutions or other colleges and universities, for the acquisition of goods or services, including personal services, to carry out agricultural research, extension, or teaching activities of mutual interest.
An agreement between the Agency and another party that describes in detail a jointly planned and executed research program or project of mutual interest between the parties where both parties contribute resources. Awarded under the authority of 7 USC 3318(b).
A special purpose agreement between ARS and another party that defines a mutually beneficial relationship relative to the use of land, labor, equipment, facilities, livestock, or other resources.
Agreement between ARS and a Sponsoring Organization that involves cooperative research of mutual interest between both parties where ARS is paid in advance of performance. Awarded under the authority of 7 USC 450a.

The Healthy Youth Program at the Linus Pauling Institute has partnered with Corvallis High School (CHS) to develop the Spartan Garden, which serves as a place-based outdoor learning resource for the school. In the Spartan Garden, students of all ability levels learn where their food comes from and the value of eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. Students have access to food grown in the garden in a variety of ways and learn to understand the important link between a healthy environment and a healthy lifestyle.
A Special Thanks to Our Donors!
- Tim & Starleen Wood Foundation
- Juan Young Trust
Now Growing
Spartan Garden is now in its third growing season! Healthy vegetables and fruits are grown and used by students at CHS for healthy snacks during lunch and break, in the school cafeteria, during our Chefs in the Garden summer camp, and during our Fresh Grown Cooking for Families program.
Spartan Garden as a Learning Resource
The Spartan Garden provides an easily accessible outdoor learning resource, where connections can be made to multiple disciplines. The Healthy Youth Program's Garden Education team is working with CHS students and teachers to make these connections. Click to learn more and read about recent garden projects.
Accessibility for Everyone
Corvallis High School serves as the magnet school for all life skills students in the Corvallis School District. Construction of a paved area for accessible raised table beds was accomplished through volunteers of the 2012 OSU Alumni Association's Community Day of Service.
Many adolescents have developed unhealthy eating habits and eat few or no fruits and vegetables on an average school day. According to the Oregon Department of Human Services, only 18% of 11th graders in Oregon consumed the recommended 5+ servings of fruits and vegetables per day.

KATC TV3 Good Morning Acadiana Anchor Tom Voinche is retiring after 20 years with the station. Throughout Tom's tenure, GMA experienced consistent ratings growth in becoming the dominant source for morning news, weather and information in the Acadiana market. Tom covered many of the biggest events of the past two decades, including the 2005 and 2008 hurricane seasons, and the May 2000 train derailment in his hometown of Eunice.
Tom's true KATC legacy, though, is his sense of humor and his infectious love for everything "Acadiana".
"Yes, we are having that much fun", says GMA Co-Anchor Tracy Wirtz. "I always told people that and meant it every time I said it. How do you tell someone 'thank you' for teaching you so much and making you laugh the whole time you were learning? I only hope I can carry on the tradition of spreading smiles as easily and expertly as Tom has."
GMA Meteorologist Dave Baker adds, "Tom's passion for South Louisiana was evident to me when he took me on a hundred mile tour of Acadiana for my job interview back in 1994. He showcased this region in true Tom Voinche fashion. Tom is always proud to show off Acadiana, his home. Because of Tom, Acadiana is my home, too. He's been a great friend and co-worker for two decades and Tom's influence will bring many more laughs on GMA for decades to come! He is why Good Morning Acadiana is what it is today! I wish all the best to Tom and his wife Bonnie on their retirements!"
In 2012, Tom received his Master's degree in Communications from UL, where he currently teaches. His retirement from KATC begins June 1st and his immediate plans call for extensive travel with wife Bonnie and dog 'Tater.
"What a wonderful 20 years it has been," reflects Tom. "I appreciate the opportunity to have been a part of the KATC family, learning much, and working with very talented people. I would especially like to thank our viewers and advertisers. Without their support, my TV3 career would have been very brief. For now, my wife Bonnie and I want to explore some of our great country and enjoy all that Acadiana has to offer."

This yummy salad combines the classic Spanish soup with Italian bread salad. Go ahead and chop the vegs. and toast the bread ahead of time, then toss the salad just before serving because the bread will soak up the juices and become soggy if it sits too long. If you prefer your panzanella drier, just use less dressing. For a vegetarian version, leave out the chicken. Adapted from Cooking Light magazine.

White Collar Summer Finale: Just…WOW (Advance Review of "Vested Interest"!)| September 18, 2012 at 11:48 AM EST
Oh, White Collar, how you torment your fans.
Tonight's episode, "Vested Interest", was written by creator Jeff Eastin, and beautifully directed by Russell Lee Fine. The FBI part of the plot has Neal (Matt Bomer) and Peter (Tim DeKay) attending an FBI conference where someone is trying to steal high valued defense technology. However, they soon discover the thief has a brazen plan to take something much more valuable away from the conference.
We left the boys last week with a furious, hurt Neal blaming Peter for Ellen's death, and for Sam having to run, telling Peter they were done, that Neal's private life was his own, and Peter had no business poking his nose into it. Ouch. Dare one hope that Peter learned his lesson this time, and that he finally realizes his way isn't always the right way? After all, he was the one who started investigating Ellen, which inadvertently brought about her death. And then he did the same thing with Sam after jumping to the conclusion that Neal had broken a promise to Peter (he didn't).
Don't worry, you fans who like Peter and Neal best when they're at odds. There isn't immediate forgiveness coming from Neal in this episode, although Peter sure does his best to act like normal. Well, sort of. And it doesn't look like he learned his lesson, either.
What do you have to look forward to in this episode? Let's see…
- Peter fixes the office coffee machine and Neal cuts back on his caffeine intake.
- There's a very long wait till January and season 4.5.
- Mozzie's in it! And he's his usual paranoid, adorable self.
- Mid-January is four months away.
- We get to see Friday, even though it's not. Friday. It's Tuesday.
- How long till January?
- Jones isn't fond of rats. Mozzie is.
- It's going to be a very slow winter.
- There's a shoot-out and someone gets shot.
- Neal is brilliant. Peter is… not having a good day.
White Collar has been exceptionally fantastic so far this season, which is a great relief from the unhappiness Season 3 generated among many fans. Watching "Vested Interest" is excellent proof that the rest of Season 4 is going to be as awesome as the first half.
All lips are sealed for the ending. Suffice to say the last thirty seconds—or is it sixty—will force all fans to hunt down Jeff Eastin and …honestly? I can't think of anything to match what his cliffhanger will do to fans.

7 Responses to "White Collar Summer Finale: Just…WOW (Advance Review of "Vested Interest"!)"
Now I'm even more amped to see tonight's episode. I have only one guess about who gets shot, and I'm not sure I'm right…
January isn't TOO far away, is it?
Why is it that columnists, such as yourself, forget that Peter is doing his job & protecting Neal from getting himself thrown back into prison. Peter won't throw him there, but Neal will get himself there if Peter doesn't do his job.
I just hope that there isn't a cliche in the story of Neal and his family. By cliche I mean Sam being Neal's dad. That is just too cheesy and predictable. I know WC is smarter than that. But I can't wait to see it tonight.
There's been nothing illegal in what Neal's been doing to find and talk to Sam. What would get him sent back to prison? There's also no official FBI investigation for Peter to use an excuse for running Sam through official channels. Granted, both guys could have handled things better by TALKING – but that's not who they are.
Well, really, Neal isn't doing anything illegil here. And since Neal kept his end of the bargain last week and did NOT tell Sam about the video, and Peter, AS USUAL, immediately assumed that's what Sam was doing at Neal's house, and thus broke thier pact by going after Sam… Yeah, Peter has a lot to answer for in this case.
How can anyone read this review and not laugh. Objectivity out the window …
Can we please stop blaming Peter for Ellen's death? That idiot Collins is the one who went and poked his nose into Ellen's existance and tried to get her to talk to him about Neal. Yes, I realize that Peter followed him so that he could have a shot at talking to Ellen, too, but Collins is the one who tracked her down and got pushy.

Watch Gilbert Arenas Messing With Nick Young On The Freeway
Earlier today Gilbert Arenas met buddy — and former partner-in-crime with the late aught Wizards — Nick Young. Except, instead of catching a movie or eating ice cream (note: they might have done those things, too), Arenas decided to scream at the swaggy Lakers shooting guard on the freeway. When these two get together, amazing happens. Read More »

Massive spill of exotic dancers in the Gulf threatens Super Bowl
DALLAS—The culmination of the NFL's 2010-11 season is in peril this week as an unprecedented spill of exotic dancers is expected to wash over Dallas. "The spill," explained Stripperoligist Adam "Pac-Man" Jones, "is the result of an ignored leak of sexual frustration combining with the easily combustible wealth and celebration. The outcome, as always, is explosive." Concerns are growing that the ever expanding spill area will inevitably engulf the fragile ecosystem that is Steelers vs. Packers.
"You have to protect the seal," vented a quivering and bleary eyed Roger Goodell. "I've been having nightmares all week about these players coated with strippers. Exotic dancer residue is highly destructive and nearly impossible to remove." Goodell has been forced to take drastic measures, sending in emergency moral warriors, such as Tony Dungy, as a way to protect his most vulnerable players, the most notable of which is an endangered species, Behaved Big Ben. "If even a drop of stripper gets near him" worried the commissioner, "the Super Bowl is doomed."

The Mashantucket Pequot Tribe says it will likely default on a key loan interest payment. The tribe has again pledged that its financial woes will not affect the operation of its Foxwoods casino. WNPR's Harriet Jones reports.
The Mashantucket Pequot tribe says it has paid about two thirds of a 21 million dollar bond repayment debt, but it will not make the deadline to pay the balance next month. In the wake of that announcement, Standard & Poor's credit rating agency has lowered its rating on the tribe, citing the anticipated default.
Senior analyst at Standard & Poor's Craig Parmelee:
"There have been quite a large number of gaming companies who have failed to make payments when due over the course of the last 18 months, so Foxwoods is not on its own here. But, that said, when the capital markets observe a default, certainly that will have some implications in terms of the cost of capital and availability of that capital in the future."
The tribe has stressed once again that it does not expect its efforts at restructuring debt to affect the operation of its casinos, Foxwoods and the MGM Grand at Foxwoods. The Mashantuckets announced last month they had entered into a forbearance agreement with senior lenders that extends through January 20th.

Upgrade from XP to Win7 via Win 8 downgrade
Hi folks,
I want to upgrade my Lenovo laptop (presently on WinXP Pro) to Windows 7. My son (who is much more knowledgeable than me!) says I can upgrade to Windows 8 Pro (using the upgrade disc) and then downgrade back to Win 7 Pro. I have checked that the computer's BIOS will "accept" Win8.
But the "downgrade" to 7 looks fraught with issues, from reading some of the discussions about it. Do I. for example, need a Windows 7 disc as well?
I would be grateful for some "wise words" on this!
Many thanks

Why would you upgrade Win XP to Windows 8 to downgrade to Windows 7?
To do the above you would need two Product keys, one for each OS.
As you can upgrade Win XP to Windows 7.
|My System Specs
|23 Jun 2013
1. Because the Win 8 Professional U/G is freely available at a reasonable price (Amazon) - Win 7 U/G like hen's teeth.
2. Because I would much prefer to stay with Win 7 (Have two other computers with it).
I had been led to believe that the W8 Pro upgrade allowed Win 7 to be installed from it. Is that not the case?

Windows 8 Pro Upgrade has NO Windows 7 downgrade rights.
If you buy a OEM manufacturer PC came with Windows 8 Pro, than you have OEM manufacturer Windows 7 downgrade rights.

Neither the manufacturer or installer, nor Microsoft, is obligated to supply earlier versions to you. You must obtain the earlier version separately. At any time, you may replace an earlier version with Windows 8 Pro. To enable downgrade on this computer to Windows 7, you must change the settings to boot into legacy BIOS mode. If the BIOS setting is not changed back to native UEFI mode boot prior to installing Windows 8 Pro, Windows 8 Pro will install; however, the following Windows 8 Pro functionalities will not work as they rely on UEFI mode boot:

Thanks - I had actually just found this out before the previous post! Son now choking on Humble Pie and owes me a pint (or two or three)
To be fair he had been given this (wrong) information by a local computer dealer who has admitted his mistake too!

LABELLE, Fla- A LaBelle woman was found dead in an abandoned house early Sunday morning on Seminole Avenue, according to the Hendry County Sheriff's Office.
Investigators say the house Pearl Smith, 44, was found in had been vacant for a very long time.
"They are treating it as homicide although they don't know if it's a homicide yet," said Lt. Susan Harrelle of the Hendry County Sheriff's Office.
Smith's family believes she was killed.
"She was bipolar and schizophrenic, but everybody knew she wouldn't harm anybody," said Don Johnson, Smith's brother.
They want the person responsible for her death behind bars.
"We love her dearly, and we hope justice reveals itself," said Smith's brother.
Investigators ordered an autopsy, and hope it will provide them with answers in this case.

The 4th of July is almost here and we have already heard some early celebrations. It can be a scary time for dogs and cats. A pet's hearing is 25 times more sensitive than a human and they don't understand what all the noise is about.
Every year, the Nebraska Humane Society sees dogs who have run away terrified due to fireworks. The loud noise can scare dogs so badly they go over fences, break chains and even go through windows and glass doors in a panic. Cats bolt and look for hiding places. Traumatized, they can run out in traffic or end up hiding for days.
"Charlie" loves looking out of the front window, but the cracking of fireworks spins him into a frenzy. Charlie's not alone. Many of us own dogs who react to the booming of fireworks and thunderstorms.
Kelly Witt decided to check with her veterinarian. "Oh, it's terrible. As soon as it starts I get the little barks and she starts shaking and runs under the bed. It's tough. In the past we've used prescription medicine and Benedryl. It calms her down so that she can relax a little bit more."
Dr. Courtney Knott at the American Animal Hospital says there are several products that may help quell the nervousness. "It's the unknown of what the noise is all about, they're not used to that and instinctively that just creates fear."
There are room diffusers and collars. Both release a scent. "Which is similar to what their nursing mother gives off and that's comforting and calming."
The last resort is medication to calm the animal. That's what Witt opted for. "The fireworks have started and the storms are moving through so we refilled the prescription so we're prepared."
Keep pets safe by keeping them indoors. No matter how social a dog is, don't take them to places where fireworks are displayed. Combine the scary noise and lights with crowds and your normally happy canine may just go berserk.
A quiet basement or interior room provides some insulation from the noise and also is usually less trafficked so it's a calmer place. Give your pet a crate, box or open closet door and put their bed inside. This will provide a safe feeling den for both dogs and cats and don't forget their favorite toys. Turn on a fan, soft music on the radio or low television to muffle the sound further and provide normal noise your pet is used to hearing.
Make sure they are wearing updated ID tags so if they do bolt you can get them back. Feliway for cats or Comfort Zone for dogs are non-narcotic plug-ins that provide pheromones which can help calm a pet and Rescue Remedy is a herbal remedy that can provide calming effects.
There's the Thundershirt, which gives the animal a sense of being held tightly. "And that pressure around their midsection helps with reducing stress," says Dr. Knott. Thundershirts come with a money back guarantee and you'll want to get one now and begin using it immediately so your pet it used to it by the 4th.
This is scary stuff for them so be patient. Which option works best for your pet depends on the animal and the environment. The bottom line is try to do whatever possible to keep your pet calm and create a secure environment.
The Nebraska Humane Society at 8929 Fort Street in Omaha is open weekends from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m and weekdays from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. You can always look up animals and find information at nehumanesociety.org.

A little about me...
Hi and thanks for reading this! I'm truly a one woman man and enjoy being in a committed relationship. Very loyal, but at the same time laid back and relaxed. I'm comfortable in my skin and truly don't sweat the small stuff. Life is too short to spend time thinking about what I can't change. My taste in music is quite diverse. Anything but opera or rap; however I lean towards oldies rock and roll. I know how to treat a lady and also enjoy those little public displays of affection. Holding hands, walking arm in arm, shooting each other a wink across the room. You know what I'm talking about! That is if you are the one I'm looking for!!!
About the one I'm looking for...
The lady I'm looking for is attractive, and takes pride in her appearance. Like me she needs to be relaxed and not sweat the small stuff and truly needs to love those little PDA's.
I'd just like to add...
I believe in chemistry!! When we meet it will either "click" or it won't!! Not really looking for friends, I have plenty of those, but if you are willing to take a chance. Let's meet for coffee and see how it goes.
I am all over the front range for work, so a little distance between us is not a problem. Again let's take a chance and see if it works for both of us.

The heir to the throne and wife Duchess Catherine have long been praised for their modern way of thinking, and nowhere does Prince William put that more on display than in his dance moves. The new dad busted out his own interpretation of the hip-hop move during a tour of the Camberwell Foyer in 2011, a London center founded by charity Centrepoint for formerly homeless people.

After working in Education for 33 years I am staggered at the lack of joined-up thinking and practical policy-making when it comes to protecting children. Today I hear that Baby Peter's mother is to be released from prison.
I have never written to my MP or Prime Minister before though I follow the political world in its broadest and most detailed sense.
In this particularly horrifying case, I find it inconceivable that any justice system can allow a person who repeatedly ignored her child's desperate pleas for help and perhaps even took part in the systematic and merciless torture of this small, helpless, innocent child to be given freedom from incarceration after only 6 years. To add to the insult, we are expected to accept that as taxpayers we should pick up the cost of giving this depraved person a new identity. Our justice system is going too far! Peter's mother was party to his painful and tragic living hell. I believe I am not the only person in the country to feel that giving her freedom so early is totally outrageous.

South Etobicoke Report (Long)
- m
- Miguel Sep 27, 2004 02:20 PM
I had the pleasure of living in south Etobicoke (Lakeshore&Royal York area) for several months while attending Humber. Here is what I found.
General Impressions: This part of Etobicoke is very working class with a strong Polish and more recent Caribbean ethnic make-up. Haute Cuisine is not really an option here, and the most highly regarded restaurant in Etobicoke (Sushi Kaji) I could not visit due to feduciary considerations. That being said, for a student on a budget, this area provided lots of tasty finds at a very reasonable cost.
10. Polish Village (2976 Lake Shore Boulevard West)
Standard Polish fare at very reasonable prices. Only dined there once with girlfriend and had 2 bowls of borscht, 6 latkes, 2 cabbage rolls, 2 schnitzels, perogies and 2 Zywieck beer for under 20 dollars!!!! Was so confused at low price that I started thinking that Polish Village might in fact be some kind of Baltic Mafia front. (Just kidding...kind of).
9. Lucky Dice Restaurant (2868 Lake Shore Boulevard West)
One of many "Dining Lounges" that can be found in the area. I would like to know the history of the name "Dining Lounge", a throwback term that inspires visions of Robert Goulet types crooning over your salisbury steak. That would be awesome, but besides video poker, a jukebox and the candid chat of the regulars, I couldn't find anything remotely entertaining about lucky dice. Good homemade burgers, but there are a billion places like this.
8. Falafel Royal (2836 Lake Shore Boulevard West)
Take advantage of daily rotating specials to score 1.99 plump falafels sandwiches with all the standard accoutrements.
7. Yalla Cafe (3106 Lake Shore Boulevard West)
Authentic Lebanese gems are hidden amongst standard falafel and shawarma type plates. Had a spicy sausage pita wrap that was quite similar to Balkan Chevaps there.
6. Thai Spring Roll (2888 Lake Shore BLVD West)
Easily the most pleasant and least hole-in-the- wallish restaurant in the general vicinity. Uninspired thai menu is priced a little too high, but great maylasian dishes and some awesome red curry lamb.
5. Rocket Fuel (2925 Lake Shore Boulevard West)
This little gem offers an amazing brunch. Tall and delicious egg-bread monte cristos sided with a fruit salad that GASP! doesn't have any melons. Rich eggs pacific with smoked salmon and capers on a hollandaise sauce. Can't miss homemade jams like strawberry grand marnier. Loses out on atmosphere a bit, if you want to eat in it's in a cavernous dungeon of a dining room. Not fun for a cheery, sunny Sunday brunch.
4.Golden Cook (2955 Lake Shore Boulevard West, besides Caribbean Queen Roti, which is quite scary looking, so I've never gone in)
Take-out Caribbean fare that offers oxtail that rivals Albert's at a cheaper price. Goat Curry, Fish and a variety of other authentic Caribbean stables can be had here. I just always go for the oxtail.
3. Zakopane Deli (3061 Lake Shore Boulevard West)
Polish deli with two little tables by the window to eat their nourishing and tasty polish fare. I have had swordfish, roast pork sandwiches, giant chicken legs with mushroom sauce on top, meat crepes, cabbage rolls, schnitzel etc. A plate of schnitzel, salad, mashed potatoes, crepe and mushroom sauce will probably run you less than 6 dollars. BONUS: best ponchks around for 70 cents. DOUBLE BONUS: Cans of Red Bull (the real stuff) for 1.99!!! Truly a chowhound's dream.
2. Creme de la Creme (2991 Bloor Street West)
A famous breakfast place up on Bloor and Royal York. Great omelletes, peameal bacon that looks more like thick pork steaks, swiss rosti style hash browns, waffles with amazing homemade yoghurt on top. Plus you don't feel like you're in Mullholland Drive when you're eating your breakfast (refer back to Rocket Fuel). Can get busy on weekends.
1. Bom Apetite Churrasqueira (1176 The Queensway)
Ok, here's the deal. I am a born in the Azores Portuguese guy who is a self proclaimed churrasco expert. Bom Apetite is about as good as it gets in Toronto. It would be a tie between them and Costa Verde near St. Clair. The chicken at Bom Apetite is juicier, but Costa Verde has better potatoes and hot sauce IMO. But if you live anywhere near this area and have the lunacy to order Swiss Chalet again, I urge you to try this place out. Swiss Chalet will always be there for you later.
Great report from the real world. Chowhound Toronto needs more of this.
When you're next on St. Clair, try Tipico Familiar at 952 (the corner of Oakwood) for burritos, guacamole etc. Cheap, cheerful and could always use another discerning diner.
re: idnas
It is a fairly good report but it's from almost 4 years ago. Spring Roll's mediocrity is not news and I've never heard of the "famous" Creme de la Creme" and I used to live in that area. Anyone else know if it's good (famous?)?
Also, I know this is being nit-picky, but "fiduciary" has nothing to do with being able to afford Sushi Kaji.
re: pescatarian
Good eye, pescatarian. I hadn't noticed the date on the OP, just the recent comments. I hope the polish places are still good. Have you been to either of them?
re: idnas
I tried Zapokane. I loved the lemon sweet custard cheese crepes. They are $1.50 and a lovely treat. The pork meatballs where also pretty good. I found the perogies (apologies for the poor spelling) to be meh and bland with no cheese in the potato cheese ones. I also must mention that all the hot table food is nuked in the microwave. This ruined it for me in a way but perhaps others won't mind. It definately is ridiculously cheap though. I wouldn't go back though.
Thanks for the report, I was planning to head out there this week and am glad to have a choice of dining destinations.
re: 5andman
Excellent report! We're always on the lookout for new places to try in Etobicoke! Thanks for your suggestions!
re: LovesToEat
Thanks, Miguel, very nice report. Creme de la Creme is staffed by Poles, I believe, consistent with the neighbourhood as you suggested. Like Yellow Cup Cafe, this gives the place a great European flavour, like the cafe at Dimpflemeyer on Saturday mornings. CC is packed on weekend mornings, and offers a tremendous Eggs Bennie and delicious coffee, highly recommended.
Will also try Bom Appetite. Thanks again. Not to hijack your thread, but do you know if Didier has left La Petite France?
re: dooGle
The thread is over 3 years old so you may not get a response from Miguel. Perhaps some of the info is no longer valid....
re: deelicious
Thanks, deelicious, I understand.
But about Didier...?
re: dooGle
Are you referring to Didier Leroy of Didier restaurant and catering? There's no info on chefdb.com about the chef at La Petite France, 3317 Bloor West.
My 2 cents on S. Etobicoke:
The Village Butcher is under new ownership and carries high-quality organic meats. My Christmas turkey dinner was amazing due in great part to the delicious meat they sold me. They also carry gourmet food and drinks (including fresh juice from Chasers), and Dufflet desserts.
Sweet Olenka's is still churning out excellent, creamy ice cream and is getting creative with chocolates & truffles.
Birds 'n' Beans is the best coffee shop in the whole area and has a new back room to allow more people to linger.
Chasers is still doing well ($4 for a medium size freshly squeezed/blended juice) and is now stocking Atelier Thuet items and Chilean jarred fruit.
re: Food Tourist
Didier sold Le Petit France over a year ago. I'm not sure what he's doing now.
As of 5/24/08, Polish Village is closed down/boarded up -- Sadly, I was looking forward to trying it, but too late. ;-(
This past Saturday my wife and I went to Rocket Fuel to try the brunch. It was about 12:30-1:00 pm when we walk into the place. We where greeted by the owner I assume, who told us that the kitchen was closed. She quite quickly told us that we could get breakfast across the street. So we left and decided to try The Kebob house which is on the next block west of Rocket Fuel.
Well to our surprise the Kebob House was quite good. I had the Chicken Shawarma plate, which was very nice. The chicken, which I find is always overcooked whenever I order Shawarma, was plentiful and well seasoned, the rice which came with the dish was not over done and was well seasoned with cinnamon, which is uncommon for me, generally the rice I have with Shawarma is never this spicy. The salad was very bright, very little oil in the dressing if any, and there was some pickled cabbage, pita, and hummus. I asked for some hot sauce thinking that it would not be all that hot. But indeed it was almost hot, hot enough to justify its name, hot sauce. All in all I enjoyed the plate. My wife had chicken Shawarma wrap, which had your usually ingredients. My wife enjoyed her Shawarma. With two drinks our bill was around $15.00.
When we where walking in a group of 4 guys where leaving and two of them said to the cook that their lunch was good and that they would return. My wife and I agree, we too shall return.
re: Pastryrocks
European Meats has a hot counter now for burgers and sandwiches.
When I get down that way I love Royal Meats.
There was someone else saying that TO's best ribs are at Brickyard BBQ. I'll have to try that.
re: Davwud
May I ask what you love about Royal Meats?
I was only there once a few weeks after they open and was not impressed. I did like the ideal of walking in and showing all the primal cuts of meats, was I in a butcher shop or a restaurant?
I ordered the pork shish kebobs and a garden salad, I forget the price. Since the grill is near the counter you can see what is happening, and to my horror the woman on the grill began to hit the kebobs repeatedly with her spatula. Now this is not the first restaurant to attack meat on the grill, I've seen this happen in a few places. I tried in vain to stop the attack, but short of calling the police, the woman was bent on taking out her frustrations on my poor defensive kebobs. Why cooks/grillardin feel that beating the moisture out of meat will cook the meat faster and better than leaving the moisture in the meat to help conduct the heat faster is something I will never understand.
Now my well cooked and bruised kebobs are now ready for the bun. The bun was not your usual Wonder bread hotdog bun, it was rather nice. But what was offered as condiments was rather lacking. I was looking for something more, considering the grandiose looking cuts of meat when you walk in, I though I was in for more than bottled condiments from Kraft.
The salad was your normal green salad, I don't remember what the garden salad consist of, but what I do remember is I had five or six choices of Kraft dressing. Why is it so hard to mix up a few vinaigrettes, heck one could use part olive oil and part veggie oil?
Maybe I'm being to harsh, but the building looks rather nice, the interior is also nice, does not look like your normal fast food joint, like something special is to be found. And when you walk in and see all the cuts of meat, what I hear is that they are all about the meat. My kebobs where dry, with a choice of ketchup, mustard, relish, Kraft dressings etc… for condiments, well I saw nothing Royal about the place. In fact the only positive thing for me was the bun at Royal Meats.
The Shawarma I had at the Kebob House on Lakeshore was overcooked for my taste, but at least they had a sauce that did not list water as one of the top 5 ingredients as so much of the stuff you get from Kraft.
re: Pastryrocks
I've had the grilled pork, burger and chevaps. All tasted good to me.
So I guess what I liked about it was it tasted good. What else can I say??
I don't get the squishing of burgers and other meat assaults either.
re: Davwud
I thought I'd give Royal Meats a second chance, and to my surprise it was much better than the first time. I told the cashier that I was back to give the place a second chance. He said Ok, and did not ask why I was giving the place a second chance.
Since I can't eat beef, I tried the chicken sandwich. The order taker placed my chicken breast on the grill without any seasoning; S&P is helpful when cooking. I waited for the grill person to start attacking my chicken breast. I guess he does yoga because he did not once attack my chicken, heck he didn't even raise his voice at my chicken breast. I had a nice concoction of feta cheese, peppers, and a few other things, I could not hear what all was in this condiment, placed on the bun along with lettuce, and sliced onions. I was given my sandwich and was asked if they could bring my fries to the table in a minute or two, to which I said no problem. I was about a quarter done my sandwich when the fries arrived at my table.
The chicken sandwich was not overdone like most chicken sandwiches I've had at a fast food type of place, it was still moist. The special concoction was nice, though a little bit more would have been better. I've have to say that the chicken sandwich was half decent, and it was filling. Imho to make this sandwich better would be to offer other condiments.
It was a good thing that the sandwich was filling, because my fries arrive cold. I found this odd because since they where not ready when my sandwich was ready, how could they come to the table cold? I did not complain about the cold fires. However, the cashier walked by my table and could see that I was not eating my fries, in fact I dumped my fries on the dish to add salt on (again no seasoning, the best time to add salt to fries is just out of the fat!), and since I did not eat them, I place my used napkin atop the fires. He did not ask why I did not eat my fries.
It appears that Kraft is the leader of condiments still, though it was very nice to see that Feta condiment was added.
The chicken sandwich was good for this type of a place. I think I'll wait a little bit and see if Royal Meats can improve some more. Until then Acme Burger does a better chicken sandwich imho.
re: Pastryrocks
I'm with you
As soon as you walk into Royal Meats you can tell exactly why your burger costs $10..
It's not because of the size or quality of the burger -- but because they obviously spent so much money on the eye candy of the store itself
I've been terribly underwhelmed by it on all 3 occasions; I bit into a bunch of veins in my grilled chicken sandwich, the burger contains no beef at all, and the pork shish-kebab sandwich was impossibly tiny.
You'd be right in saying the bun is the best thing they've got going for them
re: Davwud
Cool, wheres Brickyard BBQ?
re: duckdown
Basically across from the Sam's Club on Queen or North Queen. Whatever that street is called. The one on the north side of SC.
I've never been there been there so don't hold me to it. I'm merely passing along someone else's assertion.
re: duckdown
Don't waste your time DD.
We went to Brickyard on Saturday and I was very excited to try the ribs. Much to my dismay there not nearly as good as people have posted.
There wasn't much smoke flavour nor smoke ring to them. The sauce was fantastic but under the sauce was the same old baby back rib taste that everyone gets. So basically, they're the same ribs as Baton Rouge but with a much better sauce.
Didn't like the choice of sides to go with it. Fries (fine), mashed (okay), sauted veggies (huh), basmati rice (plain. As in nothing but rice cooked in water). IMHO if you're trying to promote yourself as a rib place (the phone number ends RIBS) you should offer things like cornbread and beans at least. You got your choice of two sides. I took fries, hold the second side.
I won't be back.
A little know place for lunch/takeout and not really a restaurant but excellent place for beef borsch soup ( really good ) and schitzels is Brandts meat 427/Dundas. Its really a German supermarket.
On the meat theme, Black Angus at Islington/Bloor is also very good for steaks...although the decor is very dated. The meat always impresses because they grill to perfection over coal grill.

SilverKatzKrafts: I also have to say I love your vids. You have a very soothing voice while explaining and that makes it pleasant. You make the effort to show the best angles so we can follow along. And very gracious in giving back credit to others who like to have you do tutorials on their designs.. I honestly don't know why anyone would dislike (thumbs down) one of yor vids!
Sam crafts Miranda: Have sorry
claire mckevitt: hey guess what i made this bracelet yea i am so sorry how i said you suck please forgive me

Emma: What a cool idea to make a knot at the end! Haven't seen that before. Thanks for showing us the Monster Tail. I don't know why people are complaining. It's not like you watched a video and copied off it to make the three pin fishtail. You figured it out on your own, and you didn't even say you were the creator of the bracelet. I loved the review and tutorial, and am excited to see more tutorials with the Monster Loom. Thanks! ~Emma~
Nicky Werewolf: Do youeven realize how awesome you are? Keep up and shake the haters off because there are tons of people worldwide who love you and your videos! I am watching youfro Greece, actually!
