For all the fancy restaurants I critique, it may be a little shocking for some folks to hear that I have a soft spot for affordable bars where everyone knows your name. When I was a teenager, I was all about the goth club life. As I got older, I started wanting to actually get to talk to people I drank with. (Novel idea, right?)
Enter the Irish pub—perhaps one of God’s greatest inventions for people who want to bond with others over dinner without appearing too hoity-toity. In Ireland, the pub is the go-to meeting place among all locals. It’s literally where everyone meets up—a major community center.
I first got introduced to Teaneck’s Cottage Bar by a coworker friend of mine. His name is Anthony, and he’s got amazing taste in both food and sci-fi books. As is tradition, I got introduced to this cute little pub by hanging out with a bunch of fellow authors. Let’s talk about why you’ll love this place.
Irish pubs have a certain je ne sais quoi that makes them inviting and homey, even if your actual home looks nothing like them. Maybe it’s the darker woods they use? The warming reds? The greens and copper accents? It’s hard to say, but at the Cottage, you almost always feel more relaxed just by walking in through the door.
Finding a true Irish pub is rare, even in a foodie hotspot like North Jersey. Make no mistake about it, though. This isn’t some manufactured “faux-Ireland” vibe like what you might find at the Tilted Kilt. Nope. It’s owned and run by people straight from the Emerald Isle—complete with that wicked sense of humor that people adore.
So, I used to go here before I went sober. I still go there after my sobriety, too. Let me tell you something: they know how to serve up a good beer. If you’re going for a full Irish vibe, I’d suggest having then pour you a Guinness or a Smithwick’s. It’s good stuff.
Drinks here are cheap, and for the most part, you aren’t going to have to pay an arm and a leg. Buying a round for your gang is actually pretty easy to do here. That’s part of the charm and part of it being a real Irish pub.
OMG Irish Food!
Irish food is amazing, but only if it’s actually legit. Here, you’re going to find the hearty meals that make Ireland so famous for their bar bites. Delicious shepherd’s pie, curry fries, and bangers n’ mash are just some of the go-to’s that I have.
Seriously, their curry fries are addictive. You have been warned, you will end up coming back over and over again for their decadent curry sauce. (Actually, you can’t go wrong with anything involving potatoes here. It’s so good.)
Check Them Out!
If you’re in the Bergen County area, you’re in luck. You can get your dose of Irish deliciousness at The Cottage in Teaneck. My review? 10/10 stars!
Liverpool, UK - May 18 2018: Liverpool Pier Head with the Royal Liver Building, Cunard Building and Port of Liverpool Building part of the Liverpool Maritime Mercantile City UNESCO World Heritage Site
No city is quite as English as Liverpool. It is much more than a monument. It is well known as the hometown of The Beatles and the famous football club. Liverpool was once a large port and a vital economic and cultural crossroads for the British Empire.
As a result of its culture, architecture, and well-developed transportation system, it is still one of the most significant locations today. Music, athletics, and tourism are all abundant and ever-present in this city.
Naturally, the thriving culinary culture that surrounds all of the aforementioned is worth checking out.
1.Starting with black pudding is a good place to start
Pudding has its origins in the British Isles, where it is still a popular dish. Pork fat or beef suet, as well as oat groats or barley groats, are among the components.
White pudding does not include pork or beef blood, but black pudding does. Pudding is distinguished from blood sausages offered in other nations by another ingredient, pennyroyal.
Actually, black pudding isn’t pudding at all. It’s a form of blood sausage prepared with lard or suet and a grain, commonly oatmeal, oat groats, or barley groats, and manufactured from pork or cow blood.
The use of herbs such as pennyroyal distinguishes British black pudding from its continental European cousins.
It’s as sturdy, gritty, and substantial as anything traditionally British, harkening back to a period when Tolkien’s beloved countryside served as the backbone of society.
Chicken skewers are made comprised of chopped up or ground chicken breasts, occasionally with veggies, and a variety of other ingredients depending on the recipe.
Although they are generally grilled over an open fire on a skewer, other varieties are baked or made as a stew.
With all of its commerce, trade, and quick living, Liverpool has always been a bustling city. By English standards, it’s fast enough.
This indicates that those who live simply and to the point have always preferred quick and uncomplicated eating. Chicken skewers could not have been more suitable under these circumstances.
The basics of this simple dish are always the same – small pieces of chicken and scallions grilled on a skewer.
There are many regional variations of this simple dish, some of which are more complex than others due to strong Asian influences, but the basics are always the same – small pieces of chicken and scallions grilled on a skewer. Chicken kebab is another name for this type of food.

3. To offer the taste of the Commonwealth, sausage buns were created.
A sausage roll is a puff pastry filled with sausage or minced meat “similar to a sausage” in Australia, however, what’s inside isn’t always obvious. The size and shape of species sausages, as well as the dough and filling composition, vary widely.
It’s always intriguing to see how tiny things maintain their tenacity in the face of major societal and cultural upheavals. Sausage rolls, for example, are a favourite snack in many current and former Commonwealth countries, including the United Kingdom.
Liverpool is no exception, being a historic imperial transportation and transit hub. There are several venues where you may get a sausage roll fashioned from puff pastry sheets. They’re one-of-a-kind in that they’re either egg or milk glaze.
4. Grilled chicken is about to get a lot more serious
One of the most popular chicken recipes is grilled chicken. Salads, roasted or baked vegetables, mashed potatoes, or sugar snap peas are some of the accompaniments.
Chicken is, if movies are to be believed, the flavour of everything in the world, and it is, aside from hog, the most popular meat in European countries.
Grilled chicken is, unsurprisingly, the most popular meal in the country, and particularly in Liverpool. It’s easy to cook and consume, and it doesn’t require any complicated or unusual ingredients.
That is unless you wish to add herbs, spices, or sauce to the grill to change the flavour. Some of the greatest grilled chicken in England can be found in Liverpool.
Asida is a sort of basic wheat or semolina porridge dish popular in Europe, some regions of Africa, and the Middle East. Wheat, barley, or other grains are used in the asida dish, along with flavourings like butter and honey.
As a port city, Liverpool is no stranger to the enigmas of the Far East, especially the delights of Arabic cuisine.
Asida’s fame is one of the outcomes of such cultural exposure. It’s an Arabic delicacy made of baked wheat flour dough lumps, often with butter or honey added.
Asida is a ceremonial meal for important events such as commemorating the birth of a child in nations such as Yemen, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Algeria, Libya, and many more. In restaurants in Liverpool, it’s an Arabic pleasure.
King prawns 4 pieces lying on the stone background and the ice
6. King prawns to sail away on the waves of good taste
King prawns are typically larger than other shrimp kinds, and they are also among the most popular worldwide. They have a rich taste with flesh that is delicious and medium-firm. Their tail tips are a vibrant blue hue when undercooked.
They star in a range of delectable recipes that are suitable for every occasion, from simple boiled prawn sandwiches to a party platter of crispy prawns with dipping sauces.
This one is self-evident. Sailors and chefs skilled in the preparation of fish and shellfish have long been a natural part of Liverpool’s community. The Commonwealth countries have a particular term for shrimp, which they call “prawn.”
They eat it, of course. The most intriguing species, of course, is the king prawn, which is served in restaurants as a delicacy and staple cuisine of the region, both as a side dish and as an ingredient. Prior to cooking, prawns are shelled and deveined for dishes like tempura.
7.Crumble to see if you can find something genuine
A crumble is a sweet or savoury meal that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Crumbles gained popularity in the United Kingdom during World War II when the topping served as a cost-effective alternative to pies owing to the rationing of pastry ingredients.
Crumble became popular in the United Kingdom during World War II when food and resources were few and pies were difficult to come by.
Crumble is a pie-like combination of stewed fruit, butter, cinnamon, flour, sugar, meat, vegetables, various sauces, cheeses, and other ingredients. It’s nothing spectacular; the main goal of the meal is to make you feel full, but a skilled modern cook may transform a wartime stew into a delectable combo.

8. Suppli to get a sense of the contrast
Suppli is deep-fried rice croquettes packed with mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce in Italy.
Due to their similarity to an old-fashioned telephone, the snacks are also known as “suppli al telefono”: when suppli are broken into two pieces, the melted mozzarella is dragged out in a thread that joins one piece to the next.
As we near the end of the list, we should switch from a more sordidly serious type of meal to a softer, more informal type of food.
Suppli a risotto-style rice ball with tomato sauce in a French-Italian meal. It’s divided into pieces and eaten with your fingers, making a mozzarella wire that connects the various components.
It’s quick and filling, making it suitable for Liverpool’s fast-paced lifestyle. Suppi is a type of pizza that is offered with drinks at authentic pizzerias.
Hot chocolate, commonly referred to as hot cocoa or drinking chocolate, is a hot beverage made with melted chocolate or cocoa powder, warm milk, and frequently sugar. Whipped cream or marshmallows can be added to the hot chocolate.
Something more commonplace and well-known might be more appropriate right now.
Hot chocolate is a heated drink made with shaved chocolate, melted chocolate or cocoa powder, heated milk or water, and frequently a sweetener, in case someone hasn’t tasted it yet. It’s comforting, delicious, and energetic.
If you obtain the correct dosage, it may be tranquil and relaxing. Hot chocolate is taken seriously in Liverpool restaurants, and it is prepared with the attention and diversity that the ancient drink deserves.
10. To preserve a stiff upper lip, eat fish and chips
Fish and chips is a famous fast food dish popular in the United Kingdom and across the world. It’s a deep-fried filet of cod or haddock served with chips. Fish and chips are commonly served with mushy beans, gherkins, and onions as a side dish.
The final item on today’s list is about as representative of the United Kingdom as one can get. “Fish and chips” is a meme that has survived the development of the Internet and will always be associated with the country and its people.
On a more serious note, the popularity of the dish and its links to the country may be traced back to the rationing days of World War II.
Fish and chips were one of the few non-rationed foods available in the UK at the time. The British people continued to eat them as a token of thanks and, maybe, because they couldn’t stop themselves.
If you want to feel like an English person, Docklands Fish and Chips is an excellent location to go.
Liverpool is a serious, fast-paced city. It’s easy to understand how legends of culture and sports were formed here, as well as the country’s splendour. While taking in the sights and sounds of Liverpool, savour the local cuisine.

Morning of beautiful young woman taking care of her skin at home
2. Moisturizing facial skin
The term “melon rose water” is no stranger to women even if it is only extracted from cucumbers. It doesn’t cost money to cut ½ a cucumber and blend it with 3 tablespoons of witch hazel (a solution extracted from the plant, grown a lot in North America to treat acne effectively, or recommended by a dermatologist) and 2 tablespoons of distilled water. Apply a piece of makeup cotton to the skin of your face. You can use it for a few weeks if you keep it clean in the fridge.
To improve and rejuvenate the skin, mix the cucumber juice with a few drops of lemon juice and bran powder and apply to the face. This improves and brightens the skin.
4. Remove acne and nourish hair
Mix the cucumber juice with apple vinegar, aloe juice, and tomato juice. You’ve got a great product that cleanses pores. Just mix well and lightly dot on the skin (note to avoid putting the cord in your eyes) or apply to the hair and gently massage and wash, rinse after a few minutes.
5. Acne Mask
Blend the turmeric powder, lemon juice, and freshly ground cucumber with the peel. You have an effective therapeutic mask product that is applied daily for 15 minutes, then rinse.
6. Facial Skin Regeneration Mask
The blend of ground cucumber, lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of honey to cover your face in the evening gives you luxurious and firm skin. Allow to stand for about 20 minutes, then rinse with warm water.
7. Skin Moisturizing Mask
Mix 1 teaspoon oatmeal with thinly chopped cucumber and 1 tablespoon honey. Allow standing at room temperature for about half an hour to thicken the mixture. The cover face within 20 minutes, then rinse.
Or if you don’t have oatmeal, you can follow the recipe: Take ½ cup chopped cucumber, ½ cup chopped avocado, 1 egg white, and 2 teaspoons powdered milk. Grind the mixture, then apply to your face and relax for 30 minutes. Rinse with water.
For mixed skins, you can use half a cucumber and 1 tablespoon of yogurt, mix and cover for about 20 minutes and then rinse.
8. Reduce dry hair
Drinking cucumber juice is good for dry or broken hair. You can also wash your hair with cucumber juice to get super smooth, shiny, and moisturized hair.
For those who like swimming, hair damaged by pool cleaning chemicals can use a mixture of 1 egg, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and half of the peeled and ground cucumber. Wipe all over hair and let soak for 10 minutes, then rinse.
On cooking shows, you can watch master chefs do amazing things with food. But which of these cooking shows are the best? To answer this question, I spoke to several professional chefs to get their opinions on the very best cooking show of all time. Here’s what they had to say!
Paula Deen – ‘In the Kitchen with David’
I love David Rocco. I love him because he has so much knowledge and it’s not just about food. He takes you on a journey. He has such a warm personality too.
Buddy Valastro – ‘Cake Boss’
Cake Boss, which first aired in 2009 and is currently airing its eighth season on TLC, is based on Buddy Valastro’s real-life experience running Carlo’s Bakery.
Valastro owns a bakery in Hoboken, New Jersey that is so famous, it has been written about by The New York Times and has been featured on Throwdown with Bobby Flay.
In 2014, Buddy was named a recipient of a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Culinary Host. ‘Cake Boss’ follows him as he manages his wildly successful family business.
Bobby Flay – ‘Throwdown with Bobby Flay’
Bobby Flay’s Throwdown with Bobby Flay is a fantastic cooking show that pits Flay against professional chefs in head-to-head competitions. The show is part friendly rivalry and part exercise in ego for Flay.
In one episode, he takes on world-renowned chef Jamie Oliver in a chili cookoff (Flay won). In another, he takes on Iron Chef Mario Batali.
Each episode features three rounds: appetizer, entrée, and dessert; whichever chef dishes out dishes that best fit within their category wins round one.
Giada De Laurentiis – ‘Everyday Italian’
De Laurentiis’ show taught her millions of viewers how easy it is to make Italian food at home. She was one of Food Network’s first breakout stars thanks to her bubbly personality and authenticity.
De Laurentiis also worked in restaurant kitchens before getting into television and has written several cookbooks.
Her approachable-yet-sophisticated style may just be what Americans need today—her popularity soared after she premiered an eight-episode special series with Food Network star Mario Batali called Giada in Paradise. And for an interesting fact about De Laurentiis? She didn’t actually invent pasta primavera!
Jamie Oliver – ‘Jamie’s Kitchen’
The best cooking show has got to be Jamie Oliver’s ‘Jamie’s Kitchen’. This 13-part reality show follows a group of aspiring chefs through their first year at Jamie’s restaurant. It shows how hard it is to be a chef and what you have to go through.
Not only that but you get to see real-world problems happening with some staff members on your team which makes for great TV!
The people who don’t make it are shown not as failures but that they simply just didn’t have what it takes, because if they did then surely one person out of hundreds should’ve been able to make it right?
Ree Drummond – ‘The Pioneer Woman’
There are plenty of reasons why Ree Drummond’s cooking show The Pioneer Woman is a favorite among chefs. But it’s likely Drummond’s matter-of-fact attitude and undeniable authenticity that sets her apart from other personalities in TV kitchens.
She started her cooking channel at home after being diagnosed with thyroid cancer—she had wanted to create recipes that were healthy but also accessible for everyday cooking.
Now, she has her own magazine and several New York Times bestsellers under her belt; she even makes good-looking food on Instagram—but at its core, The Pioneer Woman is about connecting with people through food.
Alton Brown – ‘Good Eats’
When it comes to cooking shows, there’s perhaps no bigger personality in TV history than Alton Brown. ‘Good Eats’ is a timeless favorite among chefs and non-chefs alike: The show balanced science with his personal approachable style as he showed audiences how to make everything from scratch.
In addition to providing recipes for audiences and teaching cooks how food works — he also had a bit of fun doing it. The show ran for 14 seasons before ending in 2012 but is still shown in reruns today.
It’s truly one of the best cooking shows of all time and a must-watch for anyone interested in food (even if you don’t ever plan on going into professional cooking).
Guy Fieri – ‘Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives’
When it comes to famous chefs, Guy Fieri is often overlooked in discussions about the best.
But according to many high-profile culinary stars from around the country, Fieri has one of the best cooking shows on television.
When I’m flipping through channels and he’s on – I have yet to see him where I don’t stop and watch, says Chef Kevin Sbraga. It’s like watching a car wreck – you just can’t turn away!
Tyler Florence – ‘Tyler’s Ultimate’
He’s hosted Food Network shows like ‘Tyler’s Ultimate’, which is just what it sounds like: Tyler Florence taking on some of his favorite dishes from around America. The show ran for five seasons and earned Florence an Emmy nomination.
When he’s not hosting or judging on television, he owns restaurants in California that offer gourmet comfort food and seasonal cocktails. His cookbook ‘Florence at Home’ was a New York Times bestseller.
His television show Tyler’s Ultimate aired on Food Network for four seasons starting in 2009. He was awarded a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Culinary Hosting in 2010.

Sò Huyết xào me (Cockle fried with tamarind)
It is true that not everyone in Vietnam enjoys the taste of cockles. Many people, however, believe that cockles are the king of all snails and clams. To create this Saigon speciality, the cockles will be cooked before being combined with tamarind sauce, oil, and coriander over a low flame.

The cuisines of the United States are the result of a fusion of cuisines from around the world. North America was formed by a confederation of immigrants from several continents, including Asia, Europe, and Africa. The food of the North American Indians can be considered authentically indigenous, while the rest of the meals are a gourmet combination of diverse civilizations.
FOODS FOUND IN THE UNITED STATES MEALS
It’s difficult to define the most common foods in the United States. The most traditional, on the other hand, comes from the aboriginal who lived here before the region was colonized. Turkey, maize, sunflower, beans, peppers, potatoes, and various cucumber presentations are among the most commonly utilized foods in traditional and regional North American cuisine.
Various ingredients from other areas were gradually added to the ones mentioned at the start. Foreign customs and meals were combined with regional delicacies to create what is now the country’s common cuisine.
Pizza, apple pie, hamburgers, and chowder are just a few examples. Chili con carne and other variants such as tostadas or tacos produced with a firm tortilla can also be included in Tex-mex cuisine, a fusion of Mexican and Spanish cuisine that has given rise to chili con carne and other variants such as tostadas or tacos made with a hard tortilla.
THE MOST DELICIOUS DISHES FROM THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

MACARONI AND CHEESE ARE AMERICAN FOODS
One of the country’s traditional cuisines is macaroni and cheese, which is a relatively simple recipe to create. It is more popular among children and has been produced for several decades.
It was allegedly invented by former President Thomas Jefferson following a trip to Italy, according to history. Whereas macaroni is widely available, he tweaked the original recipe by adding cheese, resulting in one of the most popular American foods.
SANDWICH WITH PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY
SANDWICH WITH PEANUT BUTTER Peanut butter is one of the most popular foods in American households, but it’s also one of the most expensive. The peanut butter and jelly sandwich is made with this butter, and it is one of the things that students always have in their lunch boxes because it is simple and quick to make. The recipe was developed during the turn of the twentieth century. It contains a significant amount of energy as well as vitamins.
PORK RIBS IN BARBECUE SAUCE
RIBS OF PORK IN BARBECUE SAUCE Pork ribs are a popular dish in the United States, and it is considered one of the country’s national dishes.
The best recipe, according to the Americans, is the St. Louis style. Of course, anyone can create their own recipe, but in this city, contests are held each year to determine who has the finest recipe. It is undeniably a flavor of St Louis elegance that cannot be matched.
COOKIES WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS
COOKIES WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS This is maybe the most renowned cookie in the world, and it is a staple of American cuisine. Ruth Graves Wakefield, owner of the Toll House Inn restaurant in Boston, Massachusetts, invented it in 1938. One of the American dishes that has spread over the world as a result of globalization.
It is already March. The beginning of revival, happiness, colors, new tastes, travel and so on. Yes, it is beginning of the spring. Everything is blooming, becoming alive, excited as we all are.
Here is our blooming new issue. Starting with an article, which is all about well-known places with their unknown delish. When we book a vacation, the first thing we look is obviously where and what we are going to eat. I think the taste and quality of food depends on multiple factors such as neighboring of the city, diversity of the people living in that city, production of the food. Have a look at the places and see which one you will pick for your next destination for the sake of the good food.
If you pair the good food with a bottle of good wine then I call it HEAVEN. It is not always possible without help; however, Alecca Hunt might guide you in the right direction. She will be talking about different type of wines and their distinct differences, which might help you to find palatable wine.
Of course if anyone wants to go further to learn more about wine rather than picking and matching, then you need to have a look at the article about wine education. It is not easy way to go unless you are very passionate about wine and choosing as a career path.
As I mentioned in the last issue, we are continuing with Salvador Dali’s cookbook. It is fascinating and as extravagant as him. I already order the original book after reading the first article to see the recipes and the artistic demonstration of the foods in the book.
Well, happy beginning of spring and have a wonderful reading food lovers.

What should you keep in mind? For an American breakfast, there are a variety of rich and substantial meals to choose from. To start your day off correctly, select from pancakes, waffles, or cereals.
Sausages and Bacon
Purchasing bacon, bacon, and sausages are the first step in preparing a traditional American breakfast. You may also pick only one of these meals, but it won’t be a true American breakfast if it doesn’t include fried meat.
Bacon and bacon are unquestionably important; if you want to skip the sausage in the morning, you may, but you must not skip the bacon or the bacon fried in their own fat released in a pan.
Eggs are another essential component of an American breakfast.
Scrambled, in the coque, or whichever you want, eggs must be present on your table for a true American breakfast. They frequently occur on the same dish when bacon is served. However, if you like to keep things separate, you are not hindered by any ban.
Scrambled eggs are a popular American breakfast item. They’re simple to make since all you have to do is crack the eggs, place them in a pot with a drop of oil, and quickly stir them until they’re done. As if you wanted to crush them or scramble them, as their name implies.
The soft-boiled ones, on the other hand, will require you to cook the egg for the inside, unlike the scrambled ones.
Wash the shell with water and baking soda, then bring the water to a boil in a saucepan and dunk the egg for 3 or 4 minutes after it begins to boil (depending on the taste, if you want a slightly less liquid egg leave it for 4 minutes). After the necessary amount of time has passed, run the egg under cold water for a few seconds before serving it with an egg cup on the table. To consume, cut from the top and eat with a spoon.
You may also make them with an ox eye if you choose. Cook the egg for a few minutes in a saucepan with a drop of oil.
Pancakes
Pancakes are another American morning staple. Soft and fluffy pancakes that, in addition to being delicious, have a beautiful aroma that pervades the entire kitchen.
Making pancakes is actually rather straightforward; the main challenge (if you can call it that) is prepping the dough.
For a family of four, you’ll need:
• 200 grams flour
• 250 grams milk
• 2 medium eggs
• 30 grams granulated sugar
• 30 grams seed oil
• 1 sachet baking powder
• Cooking butter •
• Electric whisk
• Spatula
• Non-stick pan
Pancakes are quite easy to make. To begin, separate the yolks from the egg whites and whisk the egg whites with an electric whisk. Remove from the equation.
In a separate dish, whisk together the yolks, oil, and milk. Sift the flour, baking powder, and sugar into the liquid mixture and whisk everything together with the electric beater. Then, with the assistance of a spatula, fold in the egg whites until firm.
Mix from the bottom up until all of the egg whites are included.
The tough should be creamy rather than liquid. After that, oil a non-stick pan with butter. After it has been well-cooked, pour a ladder of tough into the centre.
Allow for a few seconds of cooking before turning the pancakes with a single blow as soon as the first bubbles appear on the surface.
Continue in this manner till the conclusion of the difficulty. It must be layered and seasoned to taste.
If you don’t believe you’ll have much time, prepare the beat the day before and store it in the refrigerator.
Waffles
To make the waffles, separate the egg yolks from the egg whites and then beat the egg whites. Remove from the equation. In a saucepan, whisk together the two yolks, melted butter, sugar, and milk.
Then stir in the sifted flour, vanilla, and baking powder until well combined.
Then, using a spatula, fold in the egg whites until firm, swirling from the bottom up, and set aside for a few minutes.
Then divide a portion of the dough between the dishes and set aside for 5-6 minutes to act. Before serving, remove the dish from the oven and season to taste.
Bagel

Place a pot of water over high heat and dunk the bagels once the water begins to boil. Cook for 20 seconds on each side, then transfer to a baking pan lined with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 220°F and bake for around 30 minutes. You’ll need lukewarm water.
