Hit me, baby, one more Thai
By: Shannon Cornman I love Thai food the way most women love their children. And if I can have that love in a casual atmosphere, quickly and affordably, at a place that also delivers … Well, then I think that’s the definition of “having it all.” Spoon Thai is not only quick and affordable; it’s […]

Raw appeal
Sushi is the Long Island iced tea of foods: It just disappears. All I remember is something that tasted amazing, an empty plate and saying, “More sushi, please!” That instant amnesia always ends with me about to pass out from being fish-drunk, wondering why I’m so full when I only had a roll or two, […]

French bread
Say what you will about the French. No, seriously, just go ahead and say it. Get it out of your system. Are you done? Good. Because while I will let you defame the entire nation, I will not hear a word about their food, unless that word is “More?” And at La Baguette Bistro, Oklahoma […]
