11:05, Fri May 2012
Posted by Kerry Saretsky, May 18, 2012 at 4:15 PM [Photograph: Kerry Saretsky] It’s easy to fall into the trap of cooking pasta during the week. It’s fast, it’s easy, and it’s good. But sometimes, after a long day, don’t you just want to tear into a piece of meat? Like, a serious roast? This [...]

Since moving to Duke’s West Campus Plaza in 2007—along with other carts [...]

02:05, Thu May 2012
Posted by Kerry Saretsky, May 17, 2012 at 5:00 PM [Photograph: Kerry Saretsky] I love quirky French regional dishes. Some, like sauce mistral—an almond sauce from Provence—for example, really haven’t make much of a splash.
