The Lonely Winter Brussels Sprouts Soup. It’s “lonely”, but you don’t have to eat it alone

December 22, 2017 by Food Polka

I am fortunate to spend this Holiday season with my family in Poland. It has been 16 years since the last Christmas together and a very long time since I experienced the “real” winter for longer than a week. Although it’s cold out here, I am still super excited because the trip triggers so many culinary memories.

All butcher blocks and cutting boards were “pretty ugly” before they became beautiful

July 18, 2015 by Food Polka

This post is basically a photo-reportage from my last month visit at Brooklyn Butcher Blocks in Brooklyn, NY. I first run into the BBB products when I was working as a chef and I was right away impressed with the stunning look and construction of their dark brickwork carving board. So, I’ve started following them on Facebook. In the spring I was hanging out at the Artisanal LA trade show and sure enough there was the BBB booth. So, I’ve […]
