Restaurant week is an opportunity to sample new cuisines, broaden culinary palates or simply get into higher end restaurants without breaking the bank.
I visited Aureole in midtown Manhattan for a weekday lunch. The restaurant wasn’t too crowded but it’s always good to make reservations in advance. A new element to restaurant week is the ability to have a meal with or without dessert (difference in price is $26 vs. $32 for lunch.)

Every Spring, Wild Leeks, also called Ramps are available at farmers markets along the east coast. Pick up a few bunches.
Ramp Seed Infused Extra Virgin Olive Oil is great. It has a sharpness and onion, garlic flavor that is perfect on chicken.
It’s possible to live in fast paced New York City but still have a taste of the slow life. Two ways to do this are gardening and baking. Both require time and patience but the rewards are worth the effort.
Making sourdough bread in my apartment has become a weekly Sunday activity. I currently have a 2 year old wild yeast starter and a recipe I am comfortable using.
One Sunday I wanted to slightly change the game plan and make french toast using my sourdough. But what sounded even better was a cinnamon raisin sourdough that I would then turn into french toast. Sounded like a winner…..and it was.
Head to your local farmers market and start picking out these fleeting spring ingredients for an exceptional salad.
Claytonia, which looks like mini lily pads has a nice clean taste and crisp bite.
In a bowl, combine eggs, parmesan, ramps, chili pepper, salt. Slowly add flour and whisk to incorporate.
