(Via mirabilis) - Hands-On Mozzarella is an excellent NYC Eats blog post about a cheese making class in New York complete with a recipe. I love mozzarella (especially the real Italian buffalo kind!). Anybody know where we can get water buffalo milk for home made mozzarella?

(Via email from Jeff MacIntyre) - BreakfastArmada.com has some fun reviews of breakfash spots like The Dutch Wooden Shoe.

It hasn't been updated since January, but it's still a fun resource. Check it out!

iLoveCheese.ca is an excellent website about cheese and other dairy products from the dairy farmers of Canada.

Thank goodness and long overdue!

We finally tried the takeaway curries at Vij's Rangoli.

And we can happily report that the Raw Sagar, Garlic and Garam Masala Beef Curry ($8.00) and the Garnet Yam and Green Chili Dumplings ($6.50) dipped in the Creamy Tomato and Onion Curry ($6.00) as per Vij's personal recommendations that night were all excellent.

My favourite was the beef curry: flavourful, not spicy with tender chunks of beef. Mmmm. I just love the way the beef works so well with the spicing in this dish

Today, I discovered Peter Hertzmann's A la carte via an email from Jeff MacIntyre.

All I can say is wow! Peter like Barb and I, is waisik. But in addition to Chinese food, he is also obsessed with French food.

We don't have cable so I have never seen Rob Feenie's Food Channel show, New Classics. I really enjoyed watching him live though. He was warm, friendly, knowledgeable and responsive to the audience.

Here's a photos of the Deer Creek Heights Ranch juicy and tasty Pomelos that I mentioned in the previous post.
