Picton New Zealand from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. Picton New Zealand is a small little town. Not much to do in the town but maybe get some lunch. I stopped off at Le Café for a bite. It was an expensive bite but check out the size of those mussels I ate. I also made a feathery friend at lunch. ...
When you spend 3 years aimed at one goal it is extremely important to recognize the milestones you reach while on your journey to that end. There is arguably no better way to celebrate these events with a great meal. The memory recall of a delicious meal can be savored for years. You know what I...
Last Wednesday I woke up early and started the 40 minute process of making Irish oatmeal. I am not too sure what the difference is between Irish and regular oatmeal other than the cool tin can the Irish oatmeal came in. None the less, pretty tasty with the agave nectar on top. ...
Jordan knows food. Jordan knows a bunch of other stuff too. Every time I talk to him I realize how much “other stuff” is up in his brain. See, the thing with Jordan is…He doesn’t talk fluff. He is one of those people that gives you hard factual reference to the topic you are...
I have been waiting to use that headline for 8 years. My fish guy at Todaro brothers used to say it to me every time asked him for a halibut filet. Tuesday night I whipped up this little halibut dish. Spiced with some salt pepper and old bay I sauteed the fish with some shallots, portobello...
Ahhhh Bali, what a beautiful place to be with friends. It was our first beach port in a while. A bunch of us decided to head to the Ramacandidasa Resort and Spa about 15 minutes away. It was perfect, it had a pool, the beach, a restaurant and it was a perfect sunny day. We got some color and a few...
The ship organized a tour for the crew to go and see an ancient temple in Borobudur, Indonesia. It was truly amazing. It is super old and has all kinds of carvings all around this temple. It was a rainy day but it held up until we were done with the temple. Then it started to rain hard. We needed to...
It’s rare, even for me, when a work partnership turns into a friendship considering that the two guys above do not work with me everyday. Tarikh and Josh are the duo that make unbelievable ideas come to life at their company, Uncommon Projects. It has been just over a year now when I called up...
It has been a week and a half since I have posted about my food regimen delights. We broke down with last Fridays lunch and had some fun at the Gingerbread Party but other than that I have been quite faithful. Then I had to get in all the Santa Barbara meals. So, the next few days will be some...
As traditions go this one is awesomely rich in more than one way. It started 3 years ago when my buddy Mike and I decided that acting like fat cats (which we are not) for an epic long, holiday lunch would be a fun and enjoyable idea. The 5 rules on how to lunch like a fat cat. 1. Dress up. A suit...
Movida – Melbourne Australia from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. Melbourne Australia is a cool looking city with lots of restaurants and cafes. I am happy to be going back there in a few weeks after we sail to New Zealand. The main thing I wanted to do in town was send my Christmas gifts (which I...
I finally made it to Australia but I didn’t have a lot of time off the ship in Cairns. The big thing to do in Cairns is to go to the Great Barrier Reef to do a dive or even a snorkel. That really would have been fun to do and see. I did, however, manage to get myself into an espresso bar in...
Yes. I know that is a huge claim. “Best Ever” is not to be thrown around lightly. My trip to Santa Barbara continued to delight right up to this tasty breakfast at Eladio’s Let’s qualify “the best”. Start with a fresh, flaky piece of brioche. Then with an egg wash...
When I say this was a long time, and talk, coming. I am not kidding. I was in Santa Barbera for my great friends’ wedding. The night I arrived in town I needed some tasty. I was with my work wife Jen, who most of you know. We walked the main drag in SB looking for the right spot. As we passed...
Hell it’s the holiday season so I don’t think we should be ashamed one bit to have some fun with our food. Actually, come to think of it….I have this policy in effect all year round. Getting back on track. I was honored to be part of the 5th annual gingerbread house making party at...
