Both mr. Bradley and mr. Fields deserve it well to be better known. And the band was tight, indeed! Being a teacher of Dutch, however, I feel I have to correct you in the spelling of the dish. It should be 'stamppot', with a double 'p'. It is a combination of the words 'stamp' (which means to crush, to pulverize) and 'pot' (you guessed it...). P.S. I have a smoker in my backyard, and smoke my own 'rookworst'. Better than those factory-made worst... Keep up the good work! And when in any need for a quick replacement for a bass-player when in Amsterdam (maybe if he's sick of eating to much stamppot or speculaas ☺), call my daughter. She's a terrific bass-player and knows all the Daptone records by heart... Enjoyed the show last night in Paradiso… Both mr. Bradley and mr. Fields deserve it well to be better known.

I am going to hold off on the "Twinkie on a Stick" for now. Hope New Year's Eve was good for you. Homer,

I have to point out that both the refrigerator pickles and the Betty Bars (which go by the name Special K bars at the monastery) are the product of the nuns at Saint Benedict's Monastery. I had a few on Friday at a monastery event and they are exactly the same as the family favorites. It's truly a Central Minnesota meal in every way! (Don't forget the german potato salad and that macaroni salad with the cheese cubes in it... thank goodness that's finally gone.) Homer, great post and great pic!

The foam is the natural foam an expresso correctly done has, it's not additional foam on top. And yes, tortilla española (we normally call it tortilla de patatas, potato omelette) is very yummy.

Cleveland has always had a large Hungarian population and this is a place where their food is to be enjoyed. (sorry, that sounds kinda corny) Anyways, the food is great, the prices aren't that high, the portions are generous and the atmosphere is chill I'm very much looking forward to the band's performance at the rock hall. Take care and I hope you can take up the recommendation.

We wanted to do this in cafes (thats pronounced kaffs not caffeee) in London where I used to eat every moring because the way bacon and egg and beans could change from kaff to kaff never failed to blow my mind and day after day I wished I`d had a camera to capture all the amazing action on the plate.
