What to do with Soba noodles?
- d
- Donna Mar 15, 2006 04:46 PM
I have acquired about 4 packs of them and would like some ideas other than anything with peanut butter!
re: WellFedRed
I can't wait! thanks.
Make a cold noodle salad. Cook them, drain, and rinse immediately with cold water to stop cooking and cool off. Then toss with an asian inspired vinaigrette or sorts. Serve with grilled shrimp or grilled or poached sliced chicken breast.
I have a good recipe from Bill Granger if this sounds appealing...let me know?
re: Aaron
I do something similar. Make the Asian dressing in a separate bowl, using whatever you have on hand to make a sauce that balances sweet, spicy, sour and salty. Last time I did this (last week) I mixed: a couple drops sesame oil, big splash soy sauce, squeeze of honey, powdered ginger and some blood orange juice and zest. I julienned cucumber and spring onion to roughly the same thickness as the noodles, tossed it together, added the sauce, and ate with some squares of flash-fried firm silken tofu. Yum.
Other flavours I use: garlic, ginger, lime, lemon, cilantro, onions, chives, fish sauce.
re: Aaron
Cold soba noodle salads are great!
My favorite Japanese restaurant serves a fabulous dish of cold soba noodles and warm sauteed salmon with a tangy dipping sauce. I experimented at home and came up with a recipe that's good enough for company.
Make the dipping sauce:
1/4 cup sushi-style Japanese soy sauce (not sure of the
exact name, but there's a picture of sushi on the label)
3 tablespoons mirin
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 or 2 teaspoons sugar
2 slices ginger
Prepare garnishes:
- Green onions, sliced (use both the white and green part)
- Tomatoes, seeded and diced
- Cucumbers, seeded and diced
- Sesame seeds, toasted (optional)
- Seaweed, toasted and julienned (optional)
I always have the green onions and tomatoes; if I have time, I add the other garnishes. Shredded or julienned carrots might be nice, too.
Cook soba noodles as directed, then drain and rinse with cold water. (One package makes 3-4 servings, depending on how hungry you are.)
Salt and pepper some salmon fillets (3-6 oz each). Sear over very high heat, skin side down, in a large skillet with some canola oil. After 30 seconds, reduce the heat to medium and finish sauteing. Don't overcook - the salmon shouldn't be flaky. (The Best Recipe cookbook has info on exact timing and heat levels if you've never done this, but it's pretty easy.)
Put soba noodles in bowls, add the garnishes, and top with salmon. Serve with the dipping sauce.
I use soba noodle soup base diluted with water, mixed with shrimp, tofu, and veggies. You can find the soup base at most asian markets.
I usually eat soba in the simple Japanese style, with a 'Tsuyu' dipping sauce. Usually I use a commercial tsuyu soup base (such as Mitsukan brand). It is a some what sweet, soy and bonito base.
I also like to eat soba along with a nabe or oden style hot pot soup.
If you don't want to do an Asian-style dish, you can pair soba with a mushroom ragoût - preferably with some wild mushrooms in there. You can toss in some bitter greens, too. Soba stands up to strong flavours.
There is book about the noodle and other uses of buckwheat
The book of Soba
James Udesky
I like them room temp. with some nice fish entree (baked, broiled, fried, raw - what have you), and a pickled veg. salad (grated carrot, cabbage and scallions - salt, rice vinegar - overnight then drain). For the soba, I'd make a dipping sauce out of shoyu (Japanese soy sauce), mirin (slightly sweet Japanese wine), and broth (chicken would be OK). To be really authentic you'd make dashi broth for the dipping sauce out of bonito flakes, kombu dried seaweed, and mirin and water). You might want to have some wasabi around as well.
my aunt makes a simple soba dish that utilizes cold soba noodles, some soy sauce, a dash of sesame oil, korean red pepper flakes, sesame seeds and green onions. then she fries a beaten egg into a thin crepe like circle and cuts them into strips and adds the strips along with some prawns. yum. she adds quite a bit of korean red pepper flakes so it can get pretty spicy, but it's even better with a nice bowl of kimchi on the side. :o)
re: soypower
Do you need to dress the noodles before chilling them? Or chill with a few drops of sesame oil? Or do they chill after cooking without fear of sticking together?
re: SilverlakeGirl
i think the key to having non-sticky noodles is actually rinsing the noodles several times under in cold water to get rid of residual starch. i've dressed the noodles before chilling and they've been fine, but i usually prefer to dress the noodles right before serving.
I like to mix sesame oil, soy, rice wine vinegar, and wasabi paste together, then toss the hot noodles to coat. Maybe a shot of crushed red pepper flakes if I'm in the mood. :)
For me, nothing beats a cold soba with tsuyu dripping sauce and a few additions. Scallions and seaweed are a must, a little wasabi optional, and last but not least, a bit of grated radish just takes it to another level.

Lowell McAdam, left, Verizon President and COO, and Tim Cook, COO of Apple, announce that Verizon Wireless will carry Apple's iPhone. | Andy Ihnatko

Article Extras
Updated: April 22, 2011 10:06PM
Well, thank God: Verizon finally announced that the iPhone is coming to their network. The only bad news is that I no longer have any need for this pocketful of cards that read: "To answer your question, I think it's inevitable that some day, AT&T will no longer be the exclusive U.S. carrier of the iPhone. But there have been so many rumors for so long that at this point, I'll only believe in a Verizon iPhone when I'm holding one in my hand."
I exaggerate the frequency of that question . . . but only slightly. Tim Cook, Apple's chief operating officer, brought up the persistent rumors several times during the announcement. I don't doubt that this move is just as much about never having to answer that question again as it is about expanding the reach of the iPhone.
It's a big announcement. The hardware itself is utterly unremarkable: It's an iPhone 4. When I placed the Verizon iPhone 4 next to my AT&T model, I had to look carefully to spot any differences. They're identical apart from the fact that it says "Verizon" in the upper-left and the mute switch is marginally closer to the volume buttons.
That's likely because of a different antenna arrangement. Inside, there's a big difference: AT&T and Verizon use completely different mobile network technologies, which is why the move required a whole new set of hardware.
Verizon's CDMA network imposes a couple of big limitations. AT&T's GSM iPhone uses a popular international standard and can roam wherever you do. CDMA is more limited. Also, you can conduct a voice call on a GSM phone while you continue to download e-mail and surf the Web. CDMA can't do voice and data simultaneously.
Verizon does offer one plum that the AT&T phone lacks: a Verizon iPhone can share its 3G Internet connection with as many as five nearby WiFi devices simultaneously. It also appears that a true "unlimited" data plan will be available, which is a big deal to anyone who streams lots of media on their iPhone.
Pre-orders on the Verizon iPhone begin Feb. 3 for existing Verizon customers and open to everybody else a week later. Hardware pricing is the same as the AT&T iPhone . . . but Verizon remains mum on how much its iPhone service will cost.
Everybody waited three years for AT&T's iPhone exclusivity to end. Why not wait a few months more? It's a good bet that Apple will introduce a new iPhone in the summer, as they have every year. And while you continue to wait, the true advantages — if any — of the iPhone plus the Verizon network will become clearer.
Apple and Verizon kept hammering the point that this was a multiyear partnership and implied that the iPhone was just the first device out the gate. The Verizon iPhone is less significant for what it is than for what it represents: a presumption of carrier choices for all Apple mobile devices.
And, of course, it's significant because the No. 1 mythological creature in Apple's private Bestiary of Devices has been dragged into the light. I've held a Verizon iPhone in my hand. Now all I need is to see a white iPhone and I'll officially have seen everything.

DETROIT A convicted carjacker has escaped from a state correctional facility on Detroit's eastside.
Police say 25-year-old Adrian Clay escaped about 7:30 a.m. Saturday from the Detroit Reentry Center on Ryan Road.
WWJ-AM reports Clay was performing janitorial work at the facility. He was wearing a blue prison jumpsuit at the time of his escape.
Detroit Police Chief James Craig called Clay "a dangerous suspect" and someone police "want to apprehend."
A police helicopter has been called in to help search. State police and state Corrections officers also are part of the search.
Corrections records show Clay was sentenced in 2005 for carjacking and weapons offenses. He was paroled earlier this month and assigned to the Reentry Center.

Restaurant substitutions-similar experiences?
- m
- markabauman Jun 16, 2009 11:09 AM
Recently went to a new restaurant in town that has taken over a location previously occupied, but vacant for awhile, of another pizza/pasta place. Different owners, different name. Saw a special pizza listed, something like a white pizza with zucchini, fresh tomato, mushrooms and onions. Asked the server if we could have the pizza, hold the onions. She pointed to a notice on the menu which said "No substitutions". We're not talking about a high-end degustation place. She said we could order the white pizza and add zucchini, fresh tomato and mushrooms. ??? When I asked her what the difference was, she shrugged her shoulders and repeated "No substitutions". I don't know if there was a price difference either way (shouldn't be and really didn't matter), but I was bewildered. Kind of reminded me of the famous diner scene with Jack Nicholson in "Five Easy Pieces", if anyone remembers that. Anyone ever have a similar experience? Seems like 99% of the time, most places will be accommodating for any omissions, inclusions, especially if something is made a la minute like a pizza. Keep in mind, this place is just starting their business; I realize they want to set their own rules, but it didn't seem like a good way to make a new (and hopefully returning) customer welcome.
I've had the situation more often with sandwiches. I understand that there are certain types of sandwiches that are made in bulk in advance, but I'm talking at restaurants where the sandwich is likely made after you order it. Is it really that hard to remove raw onions from a sandwich? At one restaurant in a large resort hotel, I just ended up leaving because of the rule.
There is a pub in LA that is well known for its burger. It is also well known for its no substitutions policy. The burger comes with arugala, blue cheese and grilled onions on top. I took a friend who keeps "light kosher"- by which I mean, she simply tries not to mix meat and cheese.
We asked them kindly leave the blue cheese off the burger. "Nope."
The cheese is on top of the arugala, not grilled onto the burger! Hard to believe it would be that hard to simply not place it on the sandwich...
Oh well, lesson learned, pub avoided in the future. There are better burgers in town anyway.
There's one restaurant we go to occasionally that serves salads, fish, pasta and sandwiches. It's a casual cafe and pretty well priced. We went for dinner once, and I ordered the pasta special which was a veggie sauce over spaghetti. The waitress refused to switch the spaghetti for a short cut of pasta, even though the pasta was being cooked to order. With any other pasta dish they'll do it... just not with the special.
Another place I go to for lunch has a salad bar that's the "toss your own type." The price includes greens and 3 toppings. I picked up a tricolor lettuce blend, and asked for broccoli and double portion of carrots. They looked at me like I was a psycho.
She was just a dimbulb. that is not a substitution it was a deletion. She should have asked the owner if in doubt - but that would have required walking and talking and then more walking and talking. Sigh. Poor her. They just do not want people saying "Can I have the white pizza but not with zucchini. Instead I want sausage and instead of onions I want anchovies..."
re: Sal Vanilla
That was my point that was confounding-not a substitution, but simply a deletion, or rather-don't add the last ingredient. Thinking, as such, seems to throw many people into a state of paralysis.
re: markabauman
Yeah, I stand by my dimbulb assessment. Or maybe it is more appropriate to say she was not the sharpest pizza cutter in the drawer. Her dough was only half risen. The Bertoli exceeded the expiration date.
Gosh I need to get a life.
re: Sal Vanilla
I'm with SV on this......the waitress is poorly trained.
I used to have a similar type experience at a very popular Pizzeria here in Bergen County, NJ. ....the problem with item ingredients and the final price charged. The place has a specialty pizza on the menu consisting of Fresh Mozzarella, Ricotta, Sun-dried Tomatoes and Fried Eggplant. The price listed for this was $13.00 on the printed menu.....however, when they rung up the pizza on their computer/documentor, instead of having a price look-up(PLU) dedicated for this menu item, they rang in pizza, with the four items separately and the total of the pizza before tax came to a total of $14.00, a dollar extra........when I questioned the discrepancy, the reply was...it's only a dollar difference......no, I'm sorry or anything similar to that effect. This happened three times.....so I had to write the place off out of principle.
My ultimate and only 5 Easy Pieces moment came some time ago at a city hospital cafeteria breakfast. Due to allergies and sensitivities, I do not drink orange juice, milk, or tea or coffee, so my usual breakfast beverage there was water. One morning they changed from fill your own glass/cup to serving from behind the counter. We were drinking too much milk or oj, I guess. I asked for an empty glass or cup so I could get water from the fountain. They refused. I explained. Refused again. I had been up all night and was in no mood for such foolishness. I asked for a cup of tea. Received it. Poured the tea out on the serving case and walked to the water tap with my cup. Victory.
re: therealdoctorlew
Just because a service person can't think independently shouldn't be an excuse for poor behavior on another's part.
"Poured the tea out on the serving case...." hmm congratulations on your victory?
re: mollygirl
i congratulate you lew.
re: therealdoctorlew
wow, i'm stunned by that!
re: therealdoctorlew
Your 5 easy pieces mention made me think of dirty Harry "nobody eats ketchup on a hot dog"
Has happened to me several times, but two stand out. We went to a large chain, Le Pain Quotien and their egg salad is supposed to be great, but they served it on a bread we didn't want. Asked for a french bread and said no, it is corporate policy, and that we could order a side of egg salad and a side of bread. We left.
Then we heard about this pizza chain from Canada, no substitutions. We went and it was lousy, should have stayed away.
It might be a policy to minimize mix-ups when it's busy - the no onions one might go to someone who ordered the regular so when they want to serve yours it's not there, only one with onions. Then they have to make you a new one, so you have to wait while the rest of your table has their food, so they'll end up comping it and you'll be mad anyway.
re: hsk
We recently had dinner at a newish place that is part of the Mario Batali empire (Tarry Lodge in Port Chester, NY). The place is big and is always packed. It was a Friday night and this night was no exception, it was full. We wanted to try 2 pizzas as appetizers and when my husband asked if we could omit one of the toppings (I think it was black olives), the waitress said "sorry but we cannot omit the olives, the kitchen is too busy to take special requests" or something to that effect. She was nice about it.
I thought it was a bit weird because we were just asking to leave something off, but in a way, I could see their point, as you state -- to minimize mix-ups when it's busy. In the end, we ordered the pizza as is, and the olives ended up being right on top (and whole) so they were easy for my husband to remove. I happen to love black olives, so there were more for me....
While I do respect and sometimes admire the no substitution rule, I think omissions should be allowed. Of course, being a former waiter, I've often wondered why the customer couldn't just pick the unwanted item off himself.
re: stricken
Why should the paying customer HAVE to pick off an unwanted item?
Restaurants are a service industry! They should provide service................
I also am a former waiter, and line cook, baker, bartender and pizza maker. Why wouldn't I encourage a larger tip, and a happy likely return customer by delivering what the customer wants?
re: bagelman01
When I've got 5 fout tops and someone wants to break my flow by sending a sandwich back because they didn't want onions or tomatoes, then the tip doesn't matter anymore. The kitchen is just gonna pick the unwanted off and send it back out anyway.
Yeah, it's a service industry, but personal responsibility is always refreshing to see.
re: stricken
A customer wouldn't be sending anything back if it was made as requested.
This problem of food going back is when SURPRISE ingredients/condiments arrive on the food that are not disclosed on the menu.
I am allergic to mustard, there have been times when I have received sandwiches that have had mustard added in the kitchen. The menu description did NOT say 'meat on a roll with mustard.' The sandwich goes back with an explanation. Blame the proprietor and/or chef for not disclosing this added item on the menu.
This might disturb your flow, but not more than my having a breathing attack, falling to the floor and the paramedics clearing the area when they arrive with equipment and a gurney. That would really kill your tips and turnover.
This happened about 15 years ago when a lazy waiter pretended to go into the kitchen and ask if there was any mustard in the pecan crusted rack of lamb. The waiter merely walked away for 2 minutes and came back with a lie. Three bites of the food and my throat swelled shut on the inside. I was in the hospital for two nights.
I know to ask about my allergy, and enough food science to avoid vinegariettes made with dijon. That waiter had a personal responsibility to do his job properly.
re: bagelman01
Personally I think that people with food allergies eat out at their own risk. I can't begin to count the number of times someone was allergic to something and that was completely ignored by the server or kitchen. I never saw anyone get really sick, but it would serve them right if they did.
re: bagelman01
"but it would serve them right if they did"
Maybe I just read it differently, but I thought stricken was talking about the server or kitchen. That it would serve them right for ignoring the customers warning about an allergy. Not that he/she wishes harm on a customer.
re: stricken
Why is it the server/kitchen's right to ignore someone's allergy? People with allergies shouldn't have to change their lives so that they never eat a meal anywhere but at home. That's just not feasible. In many cases, it's as simple as asking whether a certain dish has X ingredient. If the server doesn't know, s/he can ask the kitchen and if that ingredient is in the dish, in many cases people just choose another option.
re: stricken
" it would serve them right if they did" - Are you kidding?
Maybe we should also do away with the Disabilities Acts, hey you can't walk the stairs, you can't go to the movies, or the gains that have been made in advancing equality for the sexes, keep them pregnant and in the litchen, or maybe just go back to those really neat Jim Crow laws, sorry sir your water fountain is over there.
re: stricken
No, the risk shifts to the restaurant/server when a specific question is asked and NOT answered truthfully.
If the server does not know and can't find out all that has to be said, is I'm sorry I don't know. Then the diner is at risk.
In the above case where I was stricken, it was at my neice's wedding. I had travelled a distance and was at her celebratory feast. Huige amounts of money had been spent on the catering. The server was not a pickup person ordered from a union hall, but a 12 year employee of the caterer. He was just lazy.
The court found that the caterer and the server assumed the risk and had a duty of care after I made the inquiry.
re: stricken
If you ever decide to open a restaurant, you really should inform your insurance company of that attitude so that they can adjust your liability premiums accordingly. In fact, perhaps your current employer should know about your complete disregard for customers' health and safety. Better yet, please tell us where you work so I can make sure to never eat there.
re: alanbarnes
You are so right! I posted about this.(see below) This issue is near and dear to my heart because of my sister's allergies. If one of the foods she is allergic to comes in contact with what she is eating, it could trigger an episode. She chooses her restaurants very carefully and limits her time eating out. We were at a restaurant a couple of months ago and her food came in contact with one of her allergens (in the kitchen.) The manager came out to explain a delay in our service because of this. They had to start over. We so appreciated that they didn't put her at risk and say, "what the heck."
re: Sal Vanilla
i would like to see stricken's clarification of his comment of july 6.
that was his last post, however. maybe he doesn't post so often. but....it seems odd since it was bound to be a "hot" issue.
re: bagelman01
My sister has severe food allergies and handles it like this:
If possible, she calls in advance to speak with the chef to find out whether or not she can be accomodated.
If she goes out spur of the moment, she has an index card with her allergies listed and before being seated, gives it to the person in front of the house to check with the chef to make sure the kitchen can help her.
We have found that the "better" restaurants are most gracious and truly aim to please.
I would hate to worry that my next bite is going to do me in! So many people are lovely and sympathetic.
re: stricken
I like cooked onions but detest them raw (e.g. i n salads). Whether cooked or raw, the flavor permeates the dish once they are placed in/on it. If you don't like them, picking them off doesn't rid the dish of the onion taste.
If you're allergic of course, picking something off is futile and can be deadly from residual residue.
re: rockandroller1
Ugh- I totally agree with you there, not to mention, the smell gets all over your hands if you have to pick them off a sandwich.
This baffles me, I mean com'on we're not talking about a high end ingredient and it's not like the ingredient medley is pre-made. Once I ordered a $30. steak, not a special, and asked if they had a green veg instead of the veg that was being offered, they said they could not sub a veg. That place is not longer on my list.
I totally agree about raw onion - ugh the whole office stinks if it's on just one persons salad! ugh!
Anyhow here is my story -
My mom had taken us to a famous ice cream parlour in Brooklyn.Jahns - it's been closed for years) Anyhow, she ordered a banana split.
She got a sundae - NO banana
When she called this to the waitresses attention, the girl said "we're out of bananas"
Okay...fine what can ya do?
The trouble was - when we got the bill - mom was charged for - a BANANA split!
She called this to the waitresses attention - who told her "But you ordered a banana split"
My mother was really nice - "Yes, but you are out of bananas - so I didn't GET a banana split"
"Yeah - but that's what you ordered"
This went on for some time, and my mother asked to see the manager.
It ended up being the same dialog!
We all could not believe our ears!
"But you ORDERED an banana split"
"But I didn't GET a banana split"!!!
I can't remember how it ended - but knowing my mother she probably paid it AND left a tip to boot!!
re: NellyNel
That's just bizarre. A normal restaurant would say we're out of bananas but we can do a sundae, is that OK?
- Yes that's fine
- No I'd rather have x instead
- No I'm going to leave and go to ice cream parlour y to have my banana split
would be the likely responses.
Not telling you, and charging for the original item, is just wrong. Maybe that's why they've been closed for years?
re: NellyNel
That's an incredible story.
re: c oliver
Jfood used to go to Jahns in Union NJ every weekend in HS. Then one day it suddenly burned down. Seem coincidental. :-))
re: bagelman01
jfood struggles with trying to remember eating any food at Jahns in the 100s time he visited while growing up. Maybe he had a burger and fries but he bows to anyone who ate chinese pork on a garlic roll at Johns (survived) and is promoted to obtaining the "regulars" number at Sally. Jfood bows.
re: bagelman01
Bagelman -
I am having some weird flashbacks!
After reading your post...
I am recalling a very garlicky roast pork sandwich that definitely was not from a Chinese restaurant. I must have had it more than once ...a very strong garlicky taste...a roll...hmmm could I have had that at Jahns?????
I'm thinking a diner...or something like that...but maybe it was Jahn's!!
I never would have remembered that sandwich but for reading your post!
re: c oliver
Yup- it was incredible!
I asked mom about it after I posted this and she DID end up paying for a Banana Split!
She says she was waiting for Alan Funt to pop out from somewhere!
She added that on our way out there was a massive live of people waiting to get in - and mom claims she was shouting "Don't order a banana split!" as we exited!
re: NellyNel
That just seems so bizarre! How can a place like Jahn's run out of bananas, first off? There was one in Bergen County, NJ - Fair Lawn, I think - when I was growing up - used to love watching a large group get "The Kitchen Sink". Cannot imagine that conversation at any place...as hsk said, shouldn't it have been "we don't have any bananas, but can make you a sundae instead?"
ETA: Just found this story/pics about Jahn's. http://www.forgotten-ny.com/SLICES/ja... But I'm sorry - there is NO WAY that 6 people could finish a Kitchen Sink! It was 22 to 30 scoops of ice cream! Well, maybe if it was half the local high school football team, they could finish it. :-)
re: LindaWhit
That article has several mistakes and appears that the writer used other people's information versus first hand experience.
There was also a Jahn's in Union NJ which burned to the ground in the early 70s. They rebuilt around the corner and never really got traction at the new location.
Likewise an Awful Awful (short for awful big, awful thick) was not a Jahn's creation, but created by another chain called Bond's, which had a location in Elizabeth NJ. Jfood remembers if you drank 3 AAs your name went on the wall.
And jfood will also agree that a Kitchen Sink for 6 would be a monumental task. Jfood and 12-13 friends finished one in 1978 but by the time they scoop the ice cream, add the toppings and bring it to the table and then serve it, a fair amount is melted.
re: jfood
Definitely a pool of melted ice cream in the bottom of that enormous silver bowl. We got one Kitchen Sink for a cast party after one of my high school plays...I think 20 people participating in eating it, but it was more ice cream soup than anything.
Still...good memories of that place. :-)
re: bagelman01
Ah, light sheds...
From the Newport Creamery website: "The legend of the Awful Awful® started with Bond's Ice Cream in New Jersey, when they filed for the Awful Awful® trademark on June 10, 1948. Original partner Rector worked out an agreement with Bonds, so Newport Creamery could use the name. When Bonds went bankrupt in the early 1970's, Newport Creamery officially bought the name for $1,000!"
re: LindaWhit
I cannot recall the name of the item specifically....but do you remember the similar version of the Kitchen Sink @ Holly's on Route 4 in Hackensack? I seem to recall it was served in a large vase.......how about that neon sign too......where the chicken ran in stages into a basket.
re: fourunder
OK, don't remember Holly's version, but I DEFINITELY remember the neon chicken-in-a-basket sign!
re: LindaWhit
I know - it was a Twilight Zone moment!
Thanks Linda for the great article - actually a the whole web-site is cool - I'm going to really enjoy browsing it
I can remember being absolutely fascinated by the "Kitchen Sink" - though I was never in a large enough group to order one...so it was always an enigma to me!
This is the scene I though of right away when I saw this post, it took a little time to google and find it:
Sally: I'd like the chef salad, please, with the oil and vinegar on the side. And the apple pie a la mode....But I'd like the pie heated, and I don't want the ice cream on top. I want it on the side. And I'd like strawberry instead of vanilla if you have it. If not, then no ice cream, just whipped cream, but only if it's real. If it's out of a can, then nothing.
Waitress: Not even the pie?
Sally: No, just the pie. But then not heated.
re: hsk
then we have the antithesis of this last week at Panera Bread - my coworker asks for a grilled ham and cheese and the conversation goes like this.
Coworker: grilled ham and cheese please.
Cashier: with or without ham?
Would you like grilled ham and cheese with or without ham?
I want a grilled ham and cheese.
ok, do you want cheese with that?
Huh? I WANT A GRILLED HAM AND CHEESE
So that's a grilled ham and cheese with ham and cheese? What bread?
I stepped in that point and said, what part of grilled ham and cheese do you NOT understand??
re: smartie
i was having breakfast with my sister down in fla years ago at a casual tourist trap type place ( not a chain though ). my sister wanted eggs benny, with no hollandaise. NOPE.
re: smartie
This is almost funny when it happens, but still boggles the mind!
My experience:
Me: I want the Italian sub no onions
Server: So, what do you want on it?
Me: everything but onions.
Server: You have to tell me what you want on it because I have to enter it in the computer.
Me: You don't know what comes on your sandwiches?
Server: If you don't want something, you have to tell me what you do want.
Me - reading from the menu: I want capicola
Server: It comes with that
Me - reading from the menu: I want cheese
Server: It comes with that
I think you're getting the gist of the conversation.....
Then it came time to pay. I had cash, my dining partner had a card. We put the cash and the card in the folio. When the server came she asked.. how much goes on the card? I said, the part not covered by the cash.
my earlier post "went nixelated". i said that the situation described is not a "substitution". and that the waitress was stupid. (was i out of bounds with the stupid thing?). to me, it seems like the word "stupid" is apt in many of the stories on the thread.
and yes, the scene in five easy pieces depicts the stupidity quite perfectly.
re: alkapal
I remember years back being in a Howard Johnsons in Poughkeepsie NY where someone could not get poached eggs because the server could not spell poached.
re: iamafoodie
Number one is the the customer service concept in restaurants, just give the customer a pickle!
re: Jacey
Unlike the folks who went to the Batali place and were nicely told by the server that if the kitchen was very busy, special orders would be difficult, we were in early and there was hardly a soul in the place-no excuse. Again, as mentioned, when anything is being made a la minute in a restaurant, it shouldn't take a rocket scientist to make a pizza adding A,B,C; leave off D. Especially if you ask nicely and especially if it's a new place trying to cultivate repeat business.
What I immediately thought of was the "Patty Melt" scene from Dead Like Me.

Dr. Kartik Chandran, associate professor of microbiology & immunology, has been named a Harold and Muriel Block Faculty Scholar in Virology. The honor recognizes his groundbreaking research on Ebola and related viruses. He joins other notable members of the Einstein faculty, working in a variety of disciplines, who recently were recognized as Harold and Muriel Block Scholars.
Dr. Chandran's research focuses on Ebola virus, which is one of the world's deadliest viruses, with a mortality rate of up to 90 percent among those infected and no known cure. Dr. Chandran's laboratory helped identify the role of the protein NPC1 as an essential receptor for allowing Ebola virus to enter cells. Their finding suggests a possible strategy for blocking infection due to Ebola.
Last year, Dr. Chandran's work earned him a five-year, $4.8 million grant from the NIH to study the molecular mechanism that allows Ebola virus to cause infection and spread in animals. His research team is investigating this along with how the virus may be harbored in nature.
The late Muriel Block was a passionate supporter of medical research. Her bequest of more than $150 million is the largest gift in the College of Medicine's nearly 60-year history.

Expensive, but at least it'll heat your house too.
How much heat will this thing generate?? As Larry mentioned below, it's gonna run pretty hot, and what kind of cooling can they shoehorn into a tablet? Or are those add-on outboard handles mainly intended to prevent melted hands while playing?
Ebuyer knocked out by own £1 deals site
Looks like it's slowly coming back to life
Probably because most people have given up, or seen that the majority of deals are not all that exciting. Best deal 'this hour' is a Hayes Accura 56k card modem, reduced from £33 to £1. One can't help feeling they wouldn't have had people beating a path to their door to pay £33 for that... Initial anticipation of bargain waned to offhand interest. BIG fail in my view.
Radiation TERROR on Scottish beach! Except it's quite safe
Think you're both right
SEPA have given MoD until Feb to come up with a plan to clean up the beach, AND part of the beach has been cordoned off 'for further investigations'. I don't think anybody is saying this is a huge risk now - just that there is a risk of increased risk! Sounds to me like all the hyperbolae is coming from jumped-up people wanting to make a name for themselves.
So, Lewis (of whom I am a huge fan generally, it must be said) is partly right, and I did find the article enlightening.
Can clouds ever be fully secure?
Who put this presentation together??
The images are REALLY bad, and give the impression it has been put together by a 4-year-old. When the guy said 'this will probably take a while' (around 2m35s), and a crappy image of an old alarm clock appeared, I lost the ability to take it seriously.
Suggest it would have been better as an audio-only presentation, as this demonstrates neatly that there are times when no pictures are better than the wrong ones.

Cops back in on BT/Phorm case
There's a case to answer anyway
'No criminal intent'? That's only one part of the test. If I pass a speed camera doing 75mph in a 60 zone, I'll still be found guilty of the offence, even if I didn't mean to speed. What about recklessness or criminal negligence?
Besides, the simple principle of individuals having control over their own personal information is being eroded quite quickly enough without these Machiavellian clowns having a go too! I hope the civil case is successful - start to put a few warning shots over the bows of companies seeking to profit by making our lives harder to manage.

Microsoft's Illumiroom lives on as 3D browser with immersive 'web rooms'
Google isn't the only one working on futuristic ways to experience the web. A year ago, Microsoft revealed the Illumiroom concept, a projection system that uses Kinect to blur the virtual and physical world by extending content on a room's walls. The project never made it out of the prototype stage due to expensive costs, but we now know Microsoft hasn't scrapped it.
In fact, new details have emerged showing how Illumiroom's technology can be used to present web content in new immersive "web rooms." The premise of Microsoft's SurroundWeb 3D browser is still the same: there is a main display (HDTV) and additional information spills off onto its surround walls using projectors with sophisticated room rendering, object detection and natural user interfaces.
The research paper highlights four main ways SurroundWeb can be used to augment the main screen. The first is a car racing show shown on the HDTV with additional info from Wikipedia and racing results projected onto the walls (top pic).
The second example is a "virtual window" that shows what it's like in remote locations.
The third example outlined is a way to see high-resolution maps without the limitations of a small screen that requires constant zooming. And a fourth example shows how instant message profiles can pop up above a person's email inbox.
According to the research paper, the technology behind the magical "web rooms" is pretty high-tech:
"After a one-time setup procedure that scans a room for projectable surfaces in about a minute, our prototype can render immersive multi-display web rooms at greater than 30 frames per second with up to 25 screens and up to 1440 x 720 display."
As with any kind of camera that watches you in your home, there are privacy concerns. Worried about the camera scanning your room and relaying that info, to say, advertisers? Don't be. Microsoft Research says privacy is very important, and the SurroundWeb experience has built-in safety measures that deliberately prevent the camera system from sending off info on whether you prefer Coke or Pepsi.
So far, SurroundWeb sounds pretty fantastic. And why wouldn't it be when it's based on the Illumiroom concept? But don't get too excited, though. Like Illumiroom, Microsoft's SurroundWeb is a prototype proof-of-concept. In other words, it's just a futuristic tease. It could be many years before we ever see this kind of tech in our homes.

A Pfafftown resident is about to cash in a $4 million lottery winning.

Winners of the top prize can claim it as a 20-year annuity or a lump sum option that can be claimed in either cash or gold bullion.

Intellectually Medieval
Kirsten Power writes in the USA Today, Liberals' Dark Ages
Don't bother trying to make sense of what beliefs are permitted and which ones will get you strung up in the town square. Our ideological overlords have created a minefield of inconsistency. While criticizing Islam is intolerant, insulting Christianity is sport. Ayaan Hirsi Ali is persona non grata at Brandeis University for attacking the prophet Mohammed. But Richard Dawkins describes the Old Testament God as "a misogynistic … sadomasochistic … malevolent bully" and the mob yawns. Bill Maher calls the same God a "psychotic mass murderer" and there are no boycott demands of the high-profile liberals who traffic his HBO show.
The self-serving capriciousness is crazy. In March, University of California-Santa Barbara women's studies professor Mireille Miller-Young attacked a 16-year-old holding an anti-abortion sign in the campus' "free speech zone" (formerly known as America). Though she was charged with theft, battery and vandalism, Miller-Young remains unrepentant and still has her job. But Mozilla's Brendan Eich gave a private donation to an anti-gay marriage initiative six years ago and was ordered to recant his beliefs. When he wouldn't, he was forced to resign from the company he helped found.
Got that? A college educator with the right opinions can attack a high school student and keep her job. A corporate executive with the wrong opinions loses his for making a campaign donation. Something is very wrong here.
The dangers of the politically correct gone amuck. It is a weak intellect that is so afraid of debate and dissent, that it must be silenced. It is medieval.
On a further note on this topic:
I have been put under such an enormous group pressure in recent days from all over the world that has become virtually unbearable to me. If this is going to continue I will be unable to conduct my normal work and will even start to worry about my health and safety. I see therefore no other way out therefore than resigning from GWPF. I had not expecting such an enormous world-wide pressure put at me from a community that I have been close to all my active life. Colleagues are withdrawing their support, other colleagues are withdrawing from joint authorship etc. I see no limit and end to what will happen.
It is a situation that reminds me about the time of McCarthy. I would never have expecting anything similar in such an original peaceful community as meteorology. Apparently it has been transformed in recent years. Under these situation I will be unable to contribute positively to the work of GWPF and consequently therefore I believe it is the best for me to reverse my decision to join its Board at the earliest possible time.

Former Bond actor Pierce Brosnan joined US politicians and eco campaigners this week to call for legislation to help combat climate change.
The eco-conscious star, who drives a low energy hybrid car was attending an Environmental Protection Agency rally in Virginia. He was to see a new bill passed aimed at increasing renewable energy resources in the States.
Fifty-six-year-old Pierce has been a champion of eco issues since the age of nine, when he became interested in the work of Greenpeace. He regularly takes part in campaigns with his wife of nine years Keely Shaye Smith, whom he describes as "very versed in the world of green."

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A suspected drunken driver accused of killing a man when he crashed into a homeless encampment along a San Francisco freeway has been charged with manslaughter and two other felonies.
Prosecutors said Wednesday that 27-year-old Jaime Juarez faces one count of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and two counts related to drunken driving in connection with the death of Wilbert Williams.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports Juarez was driving his 2001 Toyota sport utility vehicle just after 1 a.m. Sunday when he lost control while exiting Interstate 80 at Fifth Street. He allegedly missed a 25-mph curve to the right and slammed into the 62-year-old Williams as he slept in a tent.
Juarez was booked on $700,000 bail.

Food Network Star Recap: How Stacey Got Her Groove Backby Hilton Hater at . Comments
It's a basic question but an important one:
How does one cook a well-balanced meal with just the ingredients in one's kitchen?
That was the issue that kicked off Food Network Star this week, as the remaining finalists were grilled by Alton Brown and then issued a Mentor Challenge: create a yummy dish that included Special K or popcorn crisps.
We can only assume this reminded others of Chopped as well.
On-camera presentation was key here, as Nikki's dish turned out fine, but her lack of knowledge to answer potential viewer questions caused some concern. Enough to get her kicked off?
Read this Food Network Star review now for the answer!
Dear Stacey Poon-Kinney:
Bravo! You have showed us that the lessons learned from the Tribal Councils of "Survivor" were not lost upon the upcoming generation of Americans! You skillfully twisted a friendship which kept you in the game not less than a week earlier into an exact opportunity to eliminate a perceived threat - all with the consumate skill of a true virtuoso, and for that... congratulations!
As just a regular viewer and consumer, as well as a Veteran, I want to thank you. Why? Because you serve as an outstanding and stellar example ... of why we regular people strive so much and strive to be different. Different than you. Gee Stacey, I never left a comrade behind whether on a Battalion run, the field of play, or the field of Battle... but you did. It did not matter if I could have exacted a better advantage by getting a better run time to advance my promotion points or something. To me, it was camaraderie that mattered. The same teamwork and understanding which enabled each of us to win or excel in our own good time by our own good merits But you have shown us that what really matters is getting what you want, no matter what. You showed us that being a better chef or presenter is not what counts. What counts is to take a friend's weakness and to twist it and exploit it to get ahead; to violate trust and the spirit of good sportsmanship... all to get what you want. "You first after me" is a great mantra, isn't it?
Does what I say really matter? Probably not. I am just a regular guy. A regular guy with a regular family and a wife who is also a "Working Mom" as you never miss an opportunity to exclaim. Sadly, we did not get a $10,000 makeover in our respective workplaces with celebrity endorsement and countless value of publicity, so that we could gross over $1 million last year. Again, your consumate skill is showing.
You have proven that you will do whatever it takes to get what you want. You had the opportunity to exhibit a modicum of fair play and good sportsmanship and you failed. Epicly! You will never get that back, just like the respect I and other viewers once had for you.
All of that aside I still must thank you for you are a perfect example: A perfect example of everything I hope my children will never become.
Sincerely, A Regular Guy
P.S. To my fellow Veterans, Servicemembers, and their families thank you for your service. You may not agree with me which is fine, but your sacrifices make this all possible. God Bless you and God Bless America!
I actually liked the remaining 3 female contestants and would have probably watch their shows over the Pie Guy and Mr Mohawk. Very annoying to see another competition show pick personality over ability. Pie guy may be memorable, but he should have left least night!!!!
Why in the world is Nikki gone and the Pie Man is still there???????? I can't understand a word he says and he did NOT cook an edible dish. The crust was raw inside?
Nikki gone??? what a disappointment! I was looking forward to her show because of her POV. She was the most natural in front of the camera and very relatable. I don't understand Elton's opinion, but even if she needed work on "food authority", that can be learned: camera presence and likeability can not. Being memorable isn't always good, as in the case of the Pie Man. He hasn't demonstrated that he can cook yet and you can't understand him. I doubt mumbling is a valuable quality for a cooking show host! I agree with most of the feedback on Stacy; she appears fake. I know it is frustrating for her, and she is trying, but I doubt she will improve.. You are either relatable or not.
I have watched every season and I think that this is the weakest group of contestants to date. Nikki was the only person I felt would absolutely make it to the finals!.
Nikki is the person I wanted to watch. I would love to see her "meat on the side" Food Network show. I connect with her and want to know more about her style of cooking. I have heard all the comments about The Pie Mans personality which I agree he has, but definetly not a person I want to watch cook.
GET THE "PIE GUY" OUT!! Nikki was way better than that stupid bald guy that only knows how to cook pies!
And one other thing - quizzing Nikki about the meaning of the word "pilaf" was unfair. I trust that Nikki would have been professional enough to research her cooking terms for any meal she was preparing on camera. That was just an excuse to get rid of her. I could tell that Giada and Alton had it in for Nikki right from the start. Robert Irvine never saw Nikki in action before this one misstep. Where was Bobby when we needed him?
How could the judges have got it so wrong? Nikki has consistently been the most engaging on camera and her "meat on the side" approach is fresh and needed in this age of increasing obesity. There is a need for this kind of cooking instruction. Pie guy has only made one edible pie so far and he mumbles his way through his on-camera presentations. Stacy reminds me of a demented puppet and the way she through Nikki under the bus by giving her salmon, which she knew Nikki hates, I would never watch her show. She is pond scum. I like Demaris but there is a glut of southern cooking shows on the network. Mohawk dude has yet to make anything I would eat and he blathers on and on about culinary sins. He makes no sense. The food network missed out on a star here. I am so disappointed!
Pie guy is unintelligible and a poor cook. Mohawk guy looks very nice, but has yet to make me understand his "culinary sins". Loved Nikki's point of view, but she's gone. Yes, there are many Southern Cooks on Food Network, but Damaris updates favorite dishes and makes them healthier. Now that the judges ousted Nikki, I'm pulling for Damaris!
Boo! Food network...you got it wrong..."pieguy" shoukd have went home... I would watch Nikki over "pieguy" and "the sinnier" anyday. Disappointed fan.
Enough with the "pie style" and "food sins"! Get those bozos out of there already! Niki was awesome and didn't need an out of tune guitar or a Mr. T wannabe look to make us enjoy her cooking. Simply said - if either of those clowns win, Food Network will lose viewership.

Private investigator Rick Carson has been hired to find out who murdered Georgia Sen. Dan Price and finds himself falling for Price's trophy widow, Jordan, even though she's his prime suspect. Gorgeous, steely Jordan stands to inherit a substantial estate and has a history of losing husbands and boyfriends to questionable fatalities, and Price was killed with Jordan's gun. But a sizable cast of quirky hangers-on who rely upon Jordan for room and board complicate matters: any one of them could be responsible for not just the senator's death but also the string of corpses that litter Jordan's past. The more Rick investigates, the more certain he is that the woman he's in love with could be a coldhearted killer. His two minds drive some refreshing twists that leave readers guessing to the end and making the latest from suspense artist Barton a satisfying read.

Angling Trust Writes to PM on Behalf of Angling Businesses
The Angling Trust has written to David Cameron and Environment and Fisheries Minister George Eustice to seek assurances that the grants announced for flood-hit businesses will also be made available to angling clubs, fisheries and tackle shops which have lost revenue as a result of high water levels.
Source: Angling Trust
The Angling Trust has had reports from its members that several fishing tackle shops, angling clubs and commercial fisheries in areas affected by the persistent flooding caused by this year's exceptional rainfall are facing financial ruin because fishing has been largely impossible in many areas. Angling is a major employer, particularly in rural areas, and supports nearly 40,000 jobs nationwide. Tackle shops, clubs and fisheries are all vital parts of the angling infrastructure.
The Angling Trust is working closely with the Environment Agency and officials in Defra to advance a National Angling Strategy, launched by Richard Benyon last year, which aims to increase the economic, social and environmental benefits to society from angling. This strategy relies upon tackle shops, angling clubs and fisheries staying in business to be successful.
Mark Lloyd, Chief Executive of the Angling Trust said:
"Angling is an important part of the rural and national economy and a major employer. We hope that the government will recognise this contribution and that the exceptional weather conditions we have endured this year have had a significant impact on angling businesses. As soon as we have further details about the availability of grants, we will send them to our member clubs, fisheries and tackle shops."
