Tasty Tofu Recipes.
My 11 year old daughter has taken a recent liking to Tofu. While I enjoy tofu at a number of Asian Restaurants, I find too many of the recipes out there, especially in vegetarian cookbooks, to be bland and aggressively healthy.
Any suggestions on tasty recipes, no need for them to be vegan or even vegetarian. Want to cut back on our meat consumption not eliminate it.
Cube it, bread it, fry or bake.
I like to slice it, dump on bbq sauce and bake till they get a little chewy.
Make mock egg salad. Tons of recipes out there andcso yummy on crackers etc,
Some of my favorites (I'm a carnivore) are:
I tend to press, cube and breifly marinade before frying (a little soy sauce and hot sauce to eliminate the bland factor), then dress with satay-style sauces made with almond butter or blitzed cashews. I'm also partial to tofu in thai curry sauces (prefer red curry or a thick dry red panang over green or yellow), using tofu in noodles (pad thai), which you can combine with meat or seafood, ma po tofu, which is made with ground pork as well.
My tofu preparation tends to fall into the "has nutritional value" rather than the "low cal, low fat" definition of healthy. Enjoy!
Agedashi tofu - crispy silken tofu with soy dashi
Mapo tofu - spicy Sichuan braised tofu
Taho - silken tofu pudding with brown sugar syrup and sago pearls
Vietnamese tofu chips - thinly sliced, fried firm tofu pockets with nuoc mam and herbs
Saag tofu - saag paneer with tofu substituted
Linguafood's magical microwave tofu has also been a favorite for years: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/7273...
re: JungMann
Aw, man, Jungmann. Beat me to it!
re: JungMann
Agedashi tofu and Mapo tofu are two of my favourite tofu dishes, and they fit into the "non-healthy" category too!
I looked up linguafood's microwave tofu and realize I like to do a similar version too, with anything on hand, usually including bonito flakes and dashi (from powder).
Also to the OP: if you and your dd feel ready to be more adventurous, I recommend you consider trying the Taiwanese (I believe) style of preparation, that involves the black and pungent thousand-year preserved eggs:
(picture but no recipe)
You basically cut up the eggs and tofu, arrange on plate and drizzle with soy sauce or some version of the sauce in linguafood's recipe, and garnish with scallion, parsley and the like. My dd and I fight over that.
I am getting really hungry now ;-)
Not a recipe but...
I learned from a nice Vietnamese lady to always boil my tofu first. Just put the whole square, or cut to fit the pan, in boiling water for 15 minutes. Firms it up a lot and also makes frying, sautéing much easier as it doesn't leach liquid. More effective than pressing with paper towels. And the texture is more pleasant than frozen tofu IMO
re: youareabunny
Similarly, in Sichuan cooking, the tofu is often boiled in a mixture of dark soy sauce and water to give it some color and flavor before stir frying. Tofu is also delicious with ground pork and lots of Chinese dishes use both tofu and meat together with yummy results!
re: treb
You haven't tried the different kinds there are out there, then. Even the neutral "bland" tofus are tasty, they take on whatever flavors of surrounding ingredients. It all boils down to using the proper type of tofu for the dish or application.
re: treb
I was on a trip to Okinawa a few years ago, and the best dish I had there (of a wide variety of delicious foods) was a tofu dish.
Home-made soft tofu, stir fried with cabbage, a bit of bean sprouts and shredded carrots, tiny cubes of potatoes, and bits of the local pork. It was amazing!
re: tastesgoodwhatisit
Reminds me of the most memorable tofu experience I have had. Years back I was in Kyoto visiting a friend, she brought me to a temple that served freshly made-tofu. The cubes of tofu were served hot and out of a wooden bucket, in some light broth. No elaborate garnishes or seasoning, and what shines was simply the aroma of the freshly made tofu (soy beans), and the silken texture. We sat on the stone benches while enjoying the pure pleasure.
IMO, the appreciation of the delicate aroma of fresh tofu (or soy milk, in a similar way) might be something that needs to be acquired, if one did not grow up with it ;-)
If you can get tofu ground round in your area, it's a great ground beef substitute:
Depends what types of dishes you cook or your daughter likes. There are a myriad of tofus from compressed firm marinated ones to very soft & silky ones, puffy ones, fried ones, tofu "noodles", etc.
Hit a large Chinese or Asian supermarket and check out the different types. It's one of the most versatile foods there is out there. I cook with tofus A LOT, feel free to ask or PM me on your questions ;-)
If you freeze the extra firm tofu before using it, and then defrost it and squeeze it a bit to dry it out, it gets the texture of ground meat. You can use it in pretty much any recipe where you've used hamburger. Or you can mix half tofu and half ground beef, if you prefer.
It works really well in things like spaghetti sauce, stuffed peppers, sloppy joes, etc.
re: mwk
Thanks for the tip :-) I'll try that next time.
Yeah, the ground bits work well in spag sauces, chilis and other applications that usually call for ground beef. I've fooled many people at office and home potlucks with my faux bolognese sauce or chilis. For hamburgers I do a 50:50 meat-to-ground soy mix.
Mapo Tofu is the antithesis of "bland" and "aggressively healthy." Properly made, it's loaded with chiles, Sichuan pepper, oil, some ground beef or pork, and salty components. My favorite tofu dish by far.
Sundubu Jigae is another wonderful Asian (in this case, Korean) tofu dish. Again, plenty of salty components. Packed with umami. Neither bland nor aggressively healthy.
re: LorenzoGA
Sundobu was what I had for lunch today and Mapo Tofu is one of a number of Chinese dishes that I enjoy. I am hoping for additional ideas on using it.
@Jungmann thanks for linking to the older thread that had some interesting information
@mvk what a great idea that opens up all types of uses.
re: chazzer
Okay. You didn't mention in your original post any tofu recipes that you were already familiar with that you did not find "bland and aggressively healthy." We can only respond based on what you've told us!
After several blah recipes using tofu, I now use this one. I usually double the sauce, add eggplant and shitake mushrooms and serve over rice, but it's good just the way it is written.
Crumbled and pressed dried firm tofu makes a nice faux-egg salad. Also crumbled but cooked dry tofu makes an excellent taco, or enchilada filling, and faux-sloppy joes.
I love this baked Tofu with Lemon, Soy, White Wine, and Butter Sauce from the Flexitarian Table by Peter Berley. I flip the tofu over in the sauce after it comes out of the oven, before reducing the sauce on the stove.
re: Caitlin McGrath
I strongly second this recipe. I love pretty much all Asian tofu preparations, but this is a different and elegant way to serve it. This sold my previously tofu-hating husband on tofu.
If you happen to have a Vietnamese cookbook (or access to any Viet. recipes) you can pretty much sub tofu for whatever protein is in them. The fish sauce will do the rest.
This seriously simple recipe from mark bittman is amazing-i wait until everyone is finished to say it has tofu- even my picky meat and potatoes parents love it:
My absolutely favorite Chinese tofu recipe. http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/foo.... I often make it with half the ground pork the recipe calls for. Tons of flavor. Serve with steamed rice and a veggie and you have a very quick meal (no need to freshen up the tofu by parboiling unless you want to or the tofu is on the old side). IA also will often put in more ginger and garlic.
I'm completely in love with this Ottolenghi black pepper tofu recipe: http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandsty...
When I first suggested making it my husband thought it might be nicer made with beef but I stuck to my guns and he loved it! I always make Ottolenghi chargrilled broccoli on the side, smacked cucumber, steamed basmati rice and it's a quick, healthy show-stopper.
My 4 year old loves tofu! I keep a bit of the fried tofu aside, the black pepper and chilli is too much for him but he loves it dipped in a bit of soy with the broccoli and rice.
I agree on the pressing, it really makes a difference. Since moving to the US, TJ's extra-firm is my tofu of choice.
re: helen_m
TJ's has a "high protein" tofu (that isn't much different from the firm in protein) but it is sealed in vacuum plastic- not the bin in water- and it doesn't even need pressing! Its super dense and same flavor as firm
Ma po tofu is very good, and definitely not bland! It's cooked with pork and chili and fermented bean curd. (It's also definitely not vegetarian).
Chinese hot and sour soup with silken tofu cubes - can be vegetarian or not, definitely not bland.
1. Stir fry cubed Tofu+ground pork/chicken/turkey+cream style corn
2. Ground Tofu+ground meat/fish+raw eggs mix well then steam in a loaf pan.
As an aside - I like tofu in general, but I vastly prefer it when it's cooked as tofu, not as an inferior meat substitute. I find that it doesn't taste like meat, doesn't have the texture of meat, and doesn't cook like meat, so using it in place of meat rarely works well.
There's a type of tofu that is frozen and then thawed, which makes it a bit porus and chewy, and is very good in soups or hot pot - it's called thousand layer tofu in Chinese. The taste is mild, but the texture is very nice.
Actually, hot pot is good for tofu - start with a light broth in a pot in the middle of the table, and have thinly sliced meat, cabbage, mushrooms, various types of tofu, dumplings, green leafy vegetables, cut green beans, chunks of corn on the cob, etc, and cook them in the broth. Let people make their own dipping sauce out of a combo of soy/vinegar/garlic/chili paste/cilantro/chopped green onion as desired. (Google shabu-shabu for ideas).
There's also dou hua - it's a slightly sweet tofu custard that's eaten as a desert.
re: free sample addict aka Tracy L
I hops she doesnt add "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" margarine. ;-)
Let it marinate in a fermented brine solution (preferably spoiled soybean milk) for a couple of hours. Then deep-fry and serve with some soy sauce and minced garlic.
The words "bland" and "tofu" will never cross your lips as an adjective and noun pairing again.
Just warn the neighbors first.
And your daughter.
re: ipsedixit
This may be beyond what I was thinking of doing, but thanks for the suggestion.
If you can find it where you are, thanks to the relatively recent North American release of Fuschia Dunlop's 'Every Grain Of Rice' (extensively discussed in other threads), I'm now in love with tofu bamboo. The Red-Braised Beef withTofu Bamboo is delicious. It cannot possibly be described as bland!
It's a completely different texture, but fun if your daughter wants to try another version.
+1 on the Mapo Tofu suggestions as well, I make it regularly.
I cube it, pat dry, roll in cornstarch and favored flavored herbs and saute it - crunchy tofu tots. cooking oil depends on the flavor profile sought. usually just cheap vegetable, sometimes olive or with a dash of sesame.
re: jill kibler
Smoked tofu is not a problem for us to find, we have good Asian Markets by us with a nice selection of Tofu.
This might sound boring and simple, but it is tasty. During my last pregnacy I loved BBQ tofu sandwiches. I would slice up a block of tofu sprinkle with onion, garlic powder, salt and pepp maybe some nutritional yeast if I had it. Then brown up slices till very brown and crispy around the edges. Then pour home made or store bought BBQ sauce all over it. Serve on a bun with a side of coleslaw and potato wedges. I usually ate the sandwich with chips as it was quicker and the baby really wanted that sandwich fast.:)
It's not fancy, but very good.
Tofu scramble is good too.
Crumbled tofu chopped potatoes mushrooms red peppers kale or spinach cumin onion garlic chili flakes brown it all in olive oil serve in corn tortilla with salsa very tasty.
re: itsmejessica
I made a great scramble with bok choy from this bittman recipe last week- was a great "dinner" scramble
Just tonight I improvised a fridge clean-out that was tasty and satisfying. I hadn't cooked with tofu for many months, and will repeat something like this much sooner.
Marinate half-inch cubes of extra-firm tofu in a mix of tamari, hoisin sauce, hot pepper sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, and a little sugar.
I had on hand previously steamed and peeled 3/4-inch chunks of kabocha squash, plus the last of a batch of baby-ish kale, some chicken stock, and a half scallion, plus newly-harvested local ginger (wonderful, thin-skinned and juicy, but doesn't last well in the fridge).
Minced some ginger, thinly sliced a clove of garlic, tore up the kale, heated the chicken stock to a simmer then let cool, sliced the scallion into rings, and dissolved a teaspoon of cornstarch in a tablespoon of cool water in a measuring cup.
Then stir-fried in a skillet: first the ginger and garlic, shortly added the kale, stir-frying until wilted, then in with the squash. Once it seemed warmed and coated, added the tofu. Added remaining marinade (most absorbed in tofu) to the chicken stock, mixed that with the cornstarch slurry, and poured it into the pan. Stirred until sauce thickened a little and tofu was well warmed. Added scallions, stirred once, and served over rice.
I've been making this Deborah Madison marinated tofu for years - requires planning ahead, but tastes great, especially grilled.
And I'm glad to see she has a tofu cookbook!
My favorite is this one
I add almost twice the black bean sauce cause I like it!
I also prefer fresh tofu from an asian market

I went back to basics and made Nikujaga today. Like all meat and potato stews across the globe, this is home-cooked comfort food ... Japanese style. If you are a novice in the kitchen, this is certainly something you can start with. It's a one-pot stew that is a cinch to put together.
For this dish, I ditched my regular Lee Kum Kee soy sauce and used Kikkoman instead. You will be surprised at how a small change can affect the overall taste of a dish. The result was a hearty stew, nuanced with a discernible Japanese flavour. Oishii!
Now, I am very particular about the types of potatoes I use. For stews and curries, I like spuds that keep their form and are firm to the bite. My favourite potatoes for simmered dishes are Indonesian Brastagi Granola. They hold up well even after pressure-cooking ... perfect for my Nikujaga.
And oh, how my kids loved this dish! They were practically scraping the bottoms of their bowls! Now, I shall take that as a compliment ;)
- 200g lean pork or beef (in my case, I used pork since we don't eat beef)*
* It seems many Nikujaga recipes call for the meat to be sliced as thinly as bacon strips. However, I am lacking in the slicing department and so, decided on the easy way out ... I cut them into small chunks.
- 1 white onion, cut into 6 wedges
- 1 large carrot, cut into bite-sized chunks
- 4 potatoes, cut into bite-sized chunks
- 1 large soup bowl dashi stock (I didn't have this unfortunately, so I subbed with regular chicken stock diluted with water, ie, half stock + half water)
- 2 tbsp mirin
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 4 tbsp Kikkoman soy sauce (more or less, if desired)
- 2 tbsp dark soy sauce (more or less, if desired)
1. Heat up some oil in a medium-sized pot. Add in meat, followed by onions. Fry till meat is nicely browned. About 5 mins.
2. Add in carrots and potatoes, and saute for another 5 mins.
3. Pour diluted stock and the rest of the seasonings. Stir well.
4. Cover pot and allow everything to simmer for about 40mins, or until the meat is tender and the hardy vegetables are cooked through. There shouldn't be too much gravy at the end, and whatever's left should be thick and very flavourful.

ahh comfort food. My hubs and I love this!ReplyDelete
Oh my gosh. I just devoured a bowl (okay - a bowl and a half) of this stuff and it is AMAZING!!! I loved the sweetness and thickness of the sauce. I think I put too much stock in it (like a traditional American-style beef stew) but when it wasn't reducing properly, I just added a touch of cornstarch to some of the broth, whisked it, and poured it back in w/ the rest of the stew. That did the trick. THANK YOU! This one is a keeper.ReplyDelete
Mmm, I love this but haven't had it in ages. Thanks for reminding me, I'm going to have to make it soon.ReplyDelete

Acting like a jerk at work is contagious
We all know that colds and viruses spread through the office with ease. But the latest health studies show a new behavior that is also contagious, being a jerk.
According to the Harvard Business Review, when a boss is unkind at work, employees notice and tend to follow that lead. Their research found that when a boss is rude, about 1 in 4 employees is also rude.
WebMD also looked into this new phenomenon. Paul Harvey, an associate professor of organizational behavior at the University of New Hampshire, found that the entire work environment can be negatively impacted by this. He says, "When vicarious abusive supervision is present, employees realize that the organization is allowing this negative treatment to exist, even if they are not experiencing it directly."
The research encourages business leaders to be as positive as possible at work. Acting nasty at work can cause more harm than you might think.

Oakland University student lands hole-in-one twice on same day
Updated On: May 06 2013 07:57:27 PM EDT
You can golf an entire lifetime and never accomplish what one young golfer did twice on the same day.
Kassandra Komma is a junior at Oakland University and she's been hitting the little white ball around for ten years.
For most golfers getting a hole-in-one is a once in a life time achieve, Komma did it twice in one day.
It started out like a typical day for Komma and her friend Alissa Albright; they grabbed their clubs for an afternoon of golf at the R&S Sharf Golf Course on Oakland's campus.
"We decided to go after work, just like a casual round like always," said Komma. "I actual started off with a bogey on the first hole so it didn't start off amazingly good."
Komma teed off on a par three at the third hole as the foursome ahead looked on.
"I didn't even see it land but they said, 'Oh my God, go in, go in,' and they started yelling and screaming," said Komma.
Komma was greeted on the green by high fives from the players who witnessed the shot. "I was dancing on the green," she said.
Less than an hour later on the seventh hole, Komma did it again.
"It went towards the pin but the pin was behind like a little wave, like a little ridge so I couldn't see it," she said.
"And I thought there is absolutely no way that she can get two holes-in-one in one round and then she ran up the green and was like 'oh my gosh' and she just collapsed," said Albright.
The question now is, can Komma ever do it again.

Mr. Peabody & Sherman is an upcoming 3D animated adventure and comedy film of America and the lead characters are The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show; they are the main characters of 1960's animated Television Series the Peabody's Improbable History. DreamWorks Animation produced this movie and the movie is distributed by 20th Century Fox. It is directed by Rob Minkoff and produced by Alex Schwartz and Denise Nolan Cascino. Tiffany Ward is the executive producer. She is the daughter of Jay Ward who was one of the creators of the original Peabody's series. Ty Burrell, Max Charles, Leslie Mann, Stephen Colbert, Ariel Winter, Stephen Tobolowsky and Allison Janney will provide voice over for the film. DreamWorks Animation acquired Classic Media in 2012 and since then Mr.Peabody and Sherman is the first animated movie being made with the characters of the Classic Media library. Mr.Peabody and Sherman is planned to release on 7th February 2014, in the United Kingdom and 7th March 2014, in America.
The story travels with Mr. Peabody, the world's smartest talking dog and his adopted boy Sherman. Penny Peterson, a classmate of Sherman comes to quarrel with Sherman on the first day of the school. Peabody gets a warning from the adoption agency that they would get back Sherman if such thing happens again. Sherman makes further problems by misusing their time machine when Penny was invited by Peabody to set things right between them. The WABAC travelling time machine results in terrible and comical results such as imitation of Penny in various female figures. Finally, it is their job to rectify the space-time range and set right the situation.

November 26, 2014
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Shoppers and merchants are preparing for Oklahoma's annual sales tax holiday on back-to-school clothing and shoes.
The three-day event begins Friday and ends Sunday as thousands of students prepare to return to the classroom for a new school year. Shoes and clothing costing less than $100 are exempt from state, city, county and local sales taxes during the holiday.
But a research group says the tax benefits of the event are minimal. The Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy says that while shoppers can buy some items tax-free, it does nothing to provide relief to low- and moderate-income taxpayers throughout the remainder of the year.
The group says greater tax fairness would be achieved with a permanent refundable low-income sales tax credit to offset the impact of sales taxes.

text: Chicago Teachers Union Strike Could Swing Nevada to Romney Print article Send a Tip by Joel B. Pollak 11 Sep 2012 post a comment Gov. Mitt Romney gave a foreign policy speech in Reno, Nevada today on the anniversary of 9/11. In his remarks, he was careful to note that he had suspended attacks on President Barack Obama out of respect for the day's solemnity. But Nevada politics may have been affected by events in Chicago, as clashes between Obama's allies in the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) and Obama's former chief of staff, Mayor Rahm Emanuel, continued. The CTU is on strike for the first time in twenty-five years, as union bosses fight for the diminishing spoils of city and state tax revenues and pension funds. The nation is watching closely, partly because many state and local governments face similar potential conflicts with public sector unions. Las Vegas is no different, and the city's firefighters are currently involved in a bitter dispute over budget cuts in the economically distressed resort town. An editorial today in the Las Vegas Review-Journal takes the firefighters' union to task for using an ambulance accident to campaign for concessions from taxpayers: "Nothing says class like using minor injuries to try to leverage more tax money from a city and a public who can't afford it. And did we mention a woman died in the accident?...And firefighters don't understand why they're losing the public's respect and admiration?" The Chicago dispute--in which innocent children in the city's woefully inadequate schools are the ultimate victims--is putting the economic issues facing Nevadans into sharp focus. Voters look to Republican-run states such as Wisconsin and New Jersey, and note that public sector unions can be defeated; they look to neighboring California and to Illinois, both true-blue one-party states, and understand the price of inaction. To the extent that Romney and Obama are proxies for state-level battles, Republicans may benefit from the Chicago news. And the Romney campaign needs the help. Democrats are outpacing the GOP in new voter registration in Nevada, owing largely to the fact that they are better organized, thanks to the state's once fast-growing unions. In addition, Nevada's Republicans include a large number of Ron Paul supporters, who are disappointed by his loss and by rule changes at the party's convention last month that, they argue, were aimed squarely at them. Indeed, given the Democrats' structural advantages in the state, it is remarkable that Romney is within striking distance of Obama--just 3.3 points behind, according to the latest RealClearPolitics average, and possibly even closer in more recent. Romney may be benefiting from the fact that the Democrats' candidate for U.S. Senate, Shelley Berkeley, is running a weak campaign against incumbent Republican Dean Heller. In a close race, the chaos in Chicago could tip the balance. And it is not clear how Obama can stop the crisis. If he opposes the unions, he risks losing their active support; if he remains quiet, he bolsters the case for Republican leadership. Romney's running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, has come out in favor of Emanuel and against the unions, pitting Obama and the mayor against each other. Look for more such tactics in the weeks ahead.

Hi Nancy & Steve,
Bud is 6 months old today. We
got him neutered today and he is doing well. We love him very much
(so does everyone else that sees him).
I'm sure I can't come up with anything original about him. I know that everyone that gets one of your puppies tells you that their dog is the greatest thing ever! His temperament is wonderful.
Bud went to puppy training class at 3 months, and I've just enrolled him in the next level of training. His favorite game is keep away. He loves sleeping on his back *spread eagle* on the couch or right in the middle of the kitchen floor.
We got him groomed a couple of weeks ago. I'm attaching a couple of pictures.
I hope you all are doing well. Thanks so much for our wonderful dog.
Kasey and Jeff Edmiston
Brynna, Kamden, Teagan
& Budreaux St. Doodle
Hi Nancy Just a note to say hi and send some photos now that Sadie is a year and a half old. She is from Roxie/Chico litter 11/23/10. She is such a wonderful companion: snuggly, obedient (mostly), quiet and the neighborhood favorite. She has never met a dog or CAT she doesn't love! She weighs about 21 lbs. and has for the past 6 months. Her vet says her weight is perfect for her size (I thought she might be too skinny when I had her shaved for summer and she looked pitiful). She's spoiled and that's my fault. She lives on the furniture and sleeps with me. We go to the woods where she runs the path but never gets out of sight. I didn't teach her that, it was instinctive.
Thank you for a wonderful companion and I wish you a great summer. Sincerely, Rebecca Buckner
If I am giving the FULL support and the lifetime guarantee I choose to give,,
I need to make sure that YOU are doing your part by giving ONLY the best to your puppy.
I refuse to stand behind such a guarantee if you are feeding food KNOWN to be too fatty, unhealthy food, with known Cancer causing ingredients . Quite a bit of store bought foods have had numerous recalls.
Life's Abundance has Never had a recall, it is formulated by one of the Top Holistic veterinarians in the country.

Chipotle vs Benny's- any others??
- minkdreads May 22, 2007 03:15 PM
What does everyone think of Chipotle? I know they're all over the place, and I like how they seem so consistently clean. I'm a veg, btw, so I like a place that doesn't always use the same tongs/spoons for everything and such. We went to Benny's recently, which is/was under renovation, and I just never get why so many NYC "hot spots" are basically hole-in-the-wall types with strands of dust caked on the ceiling. Plus, the bill was much higher, we of course had to pay a tip too, and to be perfectly candid- the burrito was just blah, and had that "everything mushed into a paste" texture. Yet everyone always says "oooh, go to Benny's". I'd love to know if there are any other good burrito spots that are worth trying! (Oh- Burritoville is okay I guess, but never seems to taste really fresh to us.)
I know some people have this knee-jerk reaction to knock anything corporate, but I do think Chipotle is a good addition to New York. It's cheap, filling (well, too filling -- one burrito is enough for two!), and uses antibiotic-free meat. I definitely prefer it to Benny's and Burritoville. I really don't like Burritoville. I just don't understand its popularity.
Along the same lines, Qdoba on 34th (betw. 2nd and 3rd) is a Chipotle knock-off created by the left-coast fast food favorite Jack in the Box. And, it's actually pretty good as a Chipotle alternative. Basically the same stuff, but different flavors. Maybe not quite so clean and fresh but I like it more than Benny's/Burritoville.
re: kesues
It'a actually Uncle Moe's. It's OK, imo, but not better than Chipotle. Benny's is flat out awful, verging on inedible. Burritoville is pretty bad, too, though certain burritos (e.g., the Route 66) are OK if you order them without rice. Kitchen Market is hit or miss -- try the three cheese with black beans, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole. My favorite burrito was probably the Carne Asada at Pio Maya, though I haven't been since they reopened. Downtown Bakery also does a decent carne asada burrito.
re: kesues
I've posted my support for Burritoville before. It's a bit better than Chipolte and has more variety. Agree that Uncle Moe's is ok, too.
Definitely not authentic, but in a similar fast-food vein is burritoville. They have a tex mex healthier-creative take on burritos. The free chips and picante salsa while you wait is perhaps the best thing about it.
Benny's is pretty bad. Burritoville is REALLY bad. Chipotle is surprisingly good. I like their moist, smoky carnitas. I order the burrito bol at Chipotle. I cannot understand the allure of a gummy flour tortilla.
re: Peter Cherches
I do like Chipotle, for what it is - best fast food chain spot hands down. And serving beer too! But I recently had an excellent burrito from Calexico, the street vendor setup on Prince and Wooster - they apparantly just placed in the Vendy awards. Nice hearty serving with a citrusy spicy touch to their chicken burrito and a nice, if mild, spice to their pork one. Fresh tasting all around, and pretty quick and cheap. The carna asada is supposedly their signature but I haven't tried yet. No good for a veggie I suspect, tho, it looked like they just had one big grill area...
re: DrSessions
do they have any fish/veggie options? i can't find any kind of menu info online.
re: Peter Cherches
Yes, Chipotle's tortillas are awful. I also second the Calexico suggestion by DrSessions.
Chipotle may not be as healthy as you think. Their average burrito has more fat than the average fast food burger:
re: mojoeater
In my view, the problem with Chipotle is that their burritos are so humongous. A chipotle burrito probably weighs at least twice as much as the average fast food burger. I enjoyed the one I had, but I haven't been back because it is just too much food for me and they have no small options. The burritos are probably pretty healthy if you only eat half of it, but that is pretty hard to do.
I agree that Chipolte is one of the better burritos I've had in NYC. I can only stand Benny's when I'm desperate for mexican and need delivery--if Chipolte delivered, I'd never eat Benny's. I do struggle a bit with the corporate-ness of Chipotle (I think they're even owned by Mc Donalds which makes it worse) and of course the size of the portions. I"m too greedy to not finish and I always regret it. I've had good burritos at Kitchen but they have no tables to eat in and a limited delivery area. There's also Mary Ann's in Chelsea which I think isn't much better than Benny's. If you're after quick Mexican and you don't mind tacos instead of burritos, for my money this best bet is the taco truck that's sometimes parked at 14th and 8th avenue.
re: torrey
Don't fret too much, Chipotle is only partly supported by McD's, not owned by. I find the tacos to be a much more portion friendly option at Chipotle!
re: elizabeththinks
Check here for the McDonalds/Chipotle story: http://www.mcdonalds.com/corp/news/co...
PS - I am eating a Burritoville sloppy joe wrap right now. I prefer the megasoy!
i finally tried my first CHIPOTLE recently. i got a beef one and i really did not like it. too much rice, awful tortilla wrap, no flavor. i hear the wrapless salad bowls are much better, so i'll give it a few more shots someday.
i prefer KITCHEN burritos. they have quick delivery too. BENNYS should be avoided, its beyond bad. i'd hardly call it a hot spot either.
re: a_and_w
eh? KITCHEN has a very tasty "cut beef" burrito. well,if you put a lot of hot sauce and salsa on it that is. heh. i order it on occasion, but i prefer the cactus or green chili burritos.
and although they dont have chicken, they do have a smoked turkey/cheddar burrito.
hey KITCHEN aint perfect, it costs too much for one thing, but what they do have is heads above the rest in the area far as i know.
i went to PIO MAYA once, but i dk downtown. how/where is that one?
re: mrnyc
Well, Kitchen's done as of today, but in case they reopen the burrito half and happen to read this -- cut beef is not an acceptable substitute for carne asada, nor is smoked turkey a stand in for pollo asada. Downtown Bakery is 1st Ave btw 4th and 5th -- carne asada burrito is quite tasty. Downsides are refried beans only (though I think they have pinto and black) and the occasional niblet in the rice.
re: a_and_w
well dont forget burritos are not an acceptable stand in for anything mexican. they're more of a cali thing.
thats a shame about KITCHEN. now i got nothing on this side of town.
re: mrnyc
LOL -- I'm painfully aware. And not just a Cali thing -- even in LA, I can't get a decent Mission burrito. Anyway, I thought I read that the Kitchen owners are looking to re-open the burrito-making portion somewhere else. I'd love to see them go the Calexico route, provided they do so as an actual restaurant or at least within another establishment. It needs to be indoors for cold and/or rainy days...
re: Yaqo Homo
Sort of a complicated question. McDonalds used to own a majority of the company, but no longer does. The Wikipedia entry explains it a bit. But it is a corportation, for better or worse. They do make an attempt to be green. I like the food and I don't think corporations are always inherently evil, if run properly. Apple and Ben & Jerry's come to mind. I'd rather have a friend make me a so-so home-cooked meal, or have an excellent meal at a small restaurant or Mesa Grill when the kitchen is on their game. But good food is always good food, and I'd eat a Chipolte burrito anyday over the slop at Mary Ann's.
re: Midtown Jimmi
Mary Ann's is ok if you want a filling portion on the cheap without much refinement. The chips and salsa were always pretty good, but I must admit that I have not eaten there in a while.
re: Yaqo Homo
Burritoville gets rightly blasted because brown rice has no place in a burrito. (Kitchen frankly should be ashamed for doing so, too, though the type of brown rice they use tastes better.) You want to give people that choice, fine, but don't make it standard. Burritoville also doesn't have simple carne or pollo asada, which is a must for a good taqueria.
re: a_and_w
Good point about the brown rice at B'ville. While I prefer it in my burrito, diners should have a choice. Burritoville provides so many other substitutions you'd think they would have different types of rice. BTW - if you like black beans, Burritoville's are pretty good.
re: a_and_w
No pork at Burritoville either.
re: Peter Cherches
Yes, though that veggie chorizo (not to be confused with the soy or sloppy joe) is pretty damn tasty. That and the achiote chicken are the two main fillings at Burritoville worth getting. Everything else strikes me as bland at best...
re: Yaqo Homo
The Mexican food is better in San Diego. Alas, here in Lower Manhattan we don't have a lot of choices. I don't eat red meat so Burritoville has a lot of healthy choices including soy and brown rice. I hear there is a Chipotle downtown so I may have to give it a try. At least Radio Mexico closed . . .Barrio Chino is good, but it's a trip to the LES and their margaritas are overpriced. The place on Lafayette (Radio Mexican?) is okay but they don't deliver.
re: financialdistrictresident
"Mexican food is better in San Diego." Yes, and northern Italian food is better in Torino, but we New Yorkers often have to choose among the least of several evils.
I agree that Chipotle is probably the "freshest" tasting, and Benny's has gone downhill. I haven't eaten here in quite some time, but I used to really enjoy a burrito at Harry's on W. 3rd.
I have eaten at the Chipotle at Bowling Green in the Financial District a couple of times with co-workers who wanted to go. Seemed fine to me. Not really an authentic experience, but doesn't pretend to be. It's fast food. Not a destination that I would seek out, but -- look at the competition. Taco Bell? Eek.
Chipotle wins it hands down for our household. So many ways to enjoy your Chipotle. For the people that think that a 20oz+ burrito is too much, you can have them cut the portions of rice, beans, etc that are added. I for example always go with double rice, no beans. You can go half and half on your meat, which is nice when you can't decide. As many said, you can get the burrito bowl or the salad (and still get all of the same ingredients but with more lettuce). I could go on and on about why and how I enjoy my chipotle (like adding fresh cilantro), but I won't bore you. There are also other ways that you can keep it veg beyond the fajita burrito option too.
I won't touch burritoville anymore due to too many post eating "experiences." There's also blockheads, but it's the same people as benny's - just a burritoville/chipotle style to-go type place.
re: downtownstefanie
Of all three (chipotle, blockheads and burritoville) I definitely go with blockheads. I hate chipotle for their poor food and long lines. At leat you can get margaritas at blockheads!
re: ginsbera
Blockheads is every bit as awful as Benny's. Please avoid it like the plague.
re: ginsbera
you can get margaritas at chipotle too.
I have become loyal to my local chipolte. No it is not authentic, but so what. It is one of the few places I can get a quick and healthy meal on my way home. I usually get the chicken, with peppers and onions instead of beans, and guacamole (annoyingly a bit more expensive) instead of sourceam or cheese. Yes it is huge and I am bad at not finishing the whole thing. But it is tasty and because of what I order I don't feel it is too unhealthy. (I didn't read the above post about fat/calorie contact compared to a burger, but I assume that depends on what you order).
Personally, I like the burritos at Paquito's on 1st Ave. & 9th st. They also have an outpost on 2nd or 3rd in the 20s, and in Hell's Kitchen off 9th Ave, under a different name. Though for what it is, Chipotle's is not horrible.
Chipotle is pretty good but the way they assemble their burritos makes for uneven ingredient distribution. They put a row of meat, row of rice, etc. and what happens is when you bite into it, you get a mouthful of only rice and then a mouthful of only meat, etc. It would be better if they could mix the ingredients before making the burrito. Otherwise, its pretty good.
While I do like Chipotle
I've said it here before
and I still think
Baby Bo's on 2nd ave btween 34th and 35th is the best

While the UAW was defeated in a February election at Volkswagen's Chattanooga factory, it wasn't enough to deter the union from future attempts at organizing the factory's labor force.
According to The Tennessean, the UAW is set to announce the formation of a union local for the plant's employees. Membership will be voluntary, and the union reports that VW won't formally recognize the local until a majority of the plant's workers join up.
"We will be announcing a local, and we would fully expect that Volkswagen would deal with this local union if it represents a substantial portion of its employees," the UAW's Region 8 director, Gary Casteel, told The Tennessean.
Apparently, the union has been considering this move since its 712-626 defeat in February, although the final decision was only made this week.
"The election was so close, we don't feel it's right to turn our backs on these workers," Casteel said.
The official announcement will be made at 4:00 PM today.

The Journal of Corporate Citizenship Special Issue
Intellectual Shamans, Wayfinders, Systems Thinkers and Social Movements: Building a Future Where All Can Thrive
Guest Editors: Chellie Spiller (Lead Editor), Malcolm McIntosh, Judith Neal, Edwina Pio, Sandra Waddock
How will we build a future where all can thrive? That is a question that has always haunted people. Today, however, we face a particular need for radical global systems change. A key issue is the rampant fundamentalism of neoliberal economics which claims that the market will solve the challenges of climate change, species extinction, inequity, a troubled global financial system, misogyny, nationalism and social unrest. It will not. The neoliberal endeavor to objectify, commoditise and marketise all aspects of our lives has devalued public goods, social enterprise, quiet moments, awe and wonder from daily living.

I never heard the term "skullduggery" before, so I decided to look it up: "unfair and dishonest practices carried out in a secretive way in order to trick other people, (humorous)". Synonyms begin with trickery, dishonesty and cheating.
While it appears that the act is supposed to be humorous, and other synonyms lower down the pole include mischief, shenanigans and monkey business, I still believe this word was poorly used. It gives me an MTV Jáckâss impression, or something with the idea of poking a guy from behind as he's winding up for the shot. That's not the type of actions being performed. Everybody knows of the extra "obstacles" that are in use. Shenanigans would have been a much better choice.

San Diego Chargers tight end Antonio Gates could end up looking for a new job, since he's scheduled to receive a $6.4 million option bonus this offseason and a $4 million salary for the 2012 season.
The 31 year-old Gates is obviously on the back end of his career and might be given the option of taking a pay cut or being released by the Chargers.
One of the most alarming things about Gates is that he hasn't played a complete 16 game regular season since 2009. He's battled through injuries throughout his career and it seems like he's been injured more often over the past few seasons.

|October 30, 1735
|July 4, 1826

|March 4, 1797 – March 4, 1801
|Political Party
Bio :
Second President of the United States John Adams was born in the Massachusetts Bay Colony (in what is now called Quincy, Massachusetts), to a family descended from the founding Puritans who colonized the region starting in 1638. His father, John Adams Sr. was a Congregationalist deacon, farmer, and lieutenant in the militia, who had community political duties serving as a town councilman.
Adams attended Harvard College, receiving his bachelor of arts degree in 1755. He returned to Harvard after a few years of teaching, deciding to become a lawyer and receiving his master's in 1758. In 1764, Adams married Abigail Smith, and the two had six children, including future US president, John Quincy.
When the Stamp Act was introduced in 1765, Adams's vocal opposition to the act was one of the first steps toward American independence from Britain. Adams wrote the famous Braintree Instructions and articles that appeared anonymously in the Boston Gazette, which defended the rights of the colonies to trial by a jury of peers and also that taxation required consent. Later that year Adams gave a speech in front of government officials. These were the first steps in John Adams's political journey, which guided him to become one of the Founding Fathers of the United States as leader during the fight for independence.
After the Boston Massacre, John Adams was asked to represent several colonial soldiers who had participated in the event. Adams was successful in defending the accused, and most of them were soon freed.
Adams represented Massachusetts in the First Continental Congresses in 1777, and the second from 1775 to 1777. Though many who fought in the war initially sought reconciliation with Britain, Adams knew independence was the answer.
His legal background made him the go-to guy for laying the foundations for the new government. He published (with the help of Richard Henry Lee) "Thoughts on Government" in April of 1776, which highly influenced later state constitutions. He argued for Republicanism and bicameralism, and outlined the separation of powers in the three branches of government.
In 1789, John Adams became the first Vice President of the United States under the administration of George Washington and was reelected along with Washington in 1792. He was viewed by the public as pompous, and earned the nickname "His Rotundity". He joined the Federalist Party when it was formed and became their nominee for president in the 1796 election.
Presidency (1797-1801) :
Adams ran as the Federalist Party nominee for President, along with Thomas Pinckney, another Federalist candidate, and was opposed by the Democratic-Republican Party's Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr. Adams won narrowly, with 71 electoral votes to Jefferson's 68, making Jefferson his vice president.
Adams continued many of Washington's policies, keeping his cabinet members, but often acting independently. Despite being a member of the Federalist Party, Adams was not in line with many other members.
The presidential move Adams seemed to be most proud of (even having it engraved on his tombstone) was pushing for peace with France when much of the country were against it. Though it probably led to the loss of his reelection campaign, Adams was decisively against being involved in the conflicts of Europe, following the example and advice of his predecessor, Washington.
Adams, along with other Federalists in Congress, signed the Alien and Sedition Acts, which set new rules for naturalization and deportation of immigrants as well as making publishing anti-government false and malicious a crime. This move was controversial and hurt interactions between members of Congress.
Adams lost his reelection campaign in 1800, and was defeated by rival Thomas Jefferson, attributed in part to the three-fifths compromise in the South. Before he left office, in an effort to keep some lasting power, Adams appointed several judges to the newly created courts, who became known as the Midnight Judges for their last-minute appointments.
Post-Presidency :
Adams was one of four presidents who chose not to attend the inauguration of his successor, Thomas Jefferson. Instead, Adams returned home to Quincy, Massachusetts and began working on his autobiography.
Though initially bitter about his defeat, Adams and Jefferson reconciled in 1812, once Jefferson had finished serving his two terms in office. Letters between the two Founding Fathers, including discussions on the role of government, have become important pieces of US history, providing insight into the political climate of Revolutionary and newborn America as well as their personalities.
John Quincy Adams, the son of John Adams, was elected President in 1825, just over a year before John Adams died. Sixteen months later, on the Declaration of Independence's 50th anniversary, Adams reflected on the historic day remarking, "It is a great day. It is a good day." Later that day, at 90 years old Adams died. His last words are frequently reported to have been "Thomas Jefferson survives," though the final word may not have been spoken. Coincidentally, Thomas Jefferson, fellow signer of the Declaration, and his friend, had died a few hours prior, unbeknownst to Adams.

Neko-de Gomen! (Sorry, I'm a Cat!) is a manga released in 1989 by Nagano Akane. Its plot focuses on a Ordinary High-School Student named Shiraishi Yayori as she tries to live a normal life after being turned into a Cat Girl by her father's teleporter. Shortly thereafter, the ineffectual Mad Scientist Kuroda creates a very large Venus fly trap that ends up attacking the city. Seeing this on the news, Yayori's father decides to send her out to fight them as Super Cat Yayoi. Surprisingly, this works out rather well.What follows is a hurricane of bizarre and often amusing situations, mostly caused by Kuroda's equally bizarre inventions and Yayori's new cat instincts. All the while, Yayori tries to keep the fact that she's part cat a secret yet somehow manages to both fail spectacularly and succeed at the same time.
