http://www.keens.com/

有些餐廳就算你這輩子只吃過一次, 你也很難忘記它. Keen's就是其中一家, 對我而言.
Keen's創立於1885年, 在紐約曼哈頓那個瞬息萬變的城市, Keen's就這樣在那裡站立超過一個世紀以上, 不管與週遭的環境店面有多不搭, 它依舊兀自的矗立在那裡.
裡面的裝潢更是像是走入時光隧道, 天花板上排滿19世紀達官政商的煙斗, 還貼滿當時已經泛黃的報紙報導和政治漫畫. 侍者的穿著似乎也像這家店固執的守著不變的傳統. 搭配無法挑剔的招牌傳奇牛排(Legendary Mutton Chop)與絕佳的前菜和配菜. 
因為我在訂位時特別提到我們是去Keen's慶祝3週年(天知道我們早就過週年了! Ally我真的很壞!), 所以我們被邀請品嘗免費的香檳酒. 臨走前, 所有服務人員在店門口揮手道別並說Happy Anniversary!

愛滋海默症 (俗稱老人失智症) 已經是美國僅次於癌症的第二大疾病. 這是全球邁向老人化與少子化趨勢都需要正視的問題. 也是關於每一個活在世界各地的我們都無可避免可能遇到的疾病.
當你在街上遇到可能的愛滋海默症(老人失智症)患者, 請不要歧視他們, 請試著儘你最大的可能幫助他們回家回醫院回警察局. 因為我們每個人都會變老, 我們所愛的家人父母也是.
謝謝你們關心這個議題. 如果你處在無法及時收看美國HBO頻道的區域, 你知道你隨時可以使用網路登上HBO Channel on YouTube得到最新的資訊. 
請用心享受每一天健康的生命, 因為這是我們所擁有最寶貴也最應該被珍惜的祝福!  ---Ally

在波多黎各短暫停留的時候，我從岸上走在老城區，看到一家破舊的咖啡館，進去以後彷彿將我帶到西班牙北部的小鎮，長長的咖啡吧，後面站著兩個穿著老舊黑白西裝的服務生，灰白的鬍鬚莫約六十多歲，像店裡其他客人一樣，點了濃縮咖啡，還有一個灑滿白色糖霜的軟麵包。

我們家有一個巧克力killer, 所以每每旅行到新的城市, 我們通常會順便看看與吃吃當地有名的巧克力店.
Biagio是D.C.非常有名的巧克力專賣店之一, 也位在18街上. 它除了進口非洲亞洲到歐洲世界各國有名的各種特殊風味和不同巧克力成份比例的巧克力磚外, 玻璃櫃裡放的是美國西岸到東岸不同設計師設計的閃亮巧克力作品. 那有如珠寶般精緻漂亮的巧克力真是令人捨不得含到嘴巴裡, 一旦你吃過卻又忍不住再一顆顆通通吃進肚子裡去. 

電影阿甘的媽媽告訴兒子人生就像一盒巧克力, 你永遠不知下一口會是什麼滋味, 而Biagio不僅僅讓你體驗焦糖琴酒水果到核果入巧克力的完美結合, 同時還有茶葉及中南美各式Chilli到Banana Curry溶入頂級巧克力的傑作, 讓你即使聽到名稱都還可能不知道那究竟是什麼好滋味, </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/496443291188306066/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=496443291188306066' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/496443291188306066'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/496443291188306066'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/12/love-affair-with-chocolate-began-biagio.html' title='Love affair with Chocolate began @ Biagio Fine Chocolate'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/SU_gSk88vhI/AAAAAAAAApc/TgSrVBEA2os/s72-c/Dec.+21_Biagio+Fine+Chocolate.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-1635873836756585808</id><published>2008-12-22T13:42:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-22T13:43:55.956-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Tryst Coffeehouse is just like another living room at your place.</title><summary type='text'>

Tryst Coffeehouse &amp; Lounge Bar是D.C. Top 5咖啡館之一, 位在紅線Adam Morgans站過橋後的pub和酒吧林立熱鬧種族多元的18街. 
我們利用週末從公寓散步到Tryst品嚐它的咖啡, 還不錯雖然沒有已從Easter Market搬到Arlington還沒去新家試過那Ally心中目前的D.C. No.1 Murky Coffee那麼的令人驚豔, 但是比起很多獨立咖啡店和連鎖業的大恐龍Starbucks, 它絕對是有過之而無不及.
 
Tryst的裝潢和氣氛讓人好像處在自家客廳般的舒服和自在, 甜點也非常值得一試. 更特別的是Tryst營造出一種特別的社群概念讓同是咖啡愛好者可以藉由咖啡交談和免費無線網路服務讓所有Tryst Coffee Lover可以在其官網上有個人廣告刊登, </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/1635873836756585808/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=1635873836756585808' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/1635873836756585808'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/1635873836756585808'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/12/tryst-coffeehouse-is-just-like-another.html' title='Tryst Coffeehouse is just like another living room at your place.'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/SU_f2wB4zUI/AAAAAAAAApU/9HFngRlHQsw/s72-c/Dec.+21_Tryst+Cafe.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-3245668105846392743</id><published>2008-06-06T01:43:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:05.625-05:00</updated><title type='text'>8 Easy Ways to Be Happy Right Now</title><summary type='text'>


昨天看到Huffington Post的報導, 談的是如何快樂. 
對, 許多人的反應都是, 現在這種文章多得跟蟑螂一樣, 講的都是一些八股大道理連小學生都說的出來, 有什麼好看的? 話又說回來, 要是現今社會沒有這個市場, 這些勵志書籍與抗憂鬱抗躁鬱症藥是賣給鬼嗎?
越來越多的教人怎麼快樂就是揭露一個十分悲慘的事實: 現代人真的很不快樂, 不快樂到越來越多人已經得到憂鬱症.

這是很早之前Ally就主動註冊報名參加的2008 ZooFari活動, 怨不得人. 
我知道Alex一趟Austin trip下來相當疲累, 不如Ally我自己去你在家休息吧? 
怎麼可能?! 嘿嘿我們還是一起去了. 怪的是這次活動義工需求時間是從6-10pm? 
國家動物園不是下午5點就關門?

請問司機那裡人? Ally我開門見山的問.
我從巴基斯坦來的. 司機看一下後照鏡對Ally我微笑回答.
巴基斯坦!? 我活像沒唸過外國地理似的再複颂一次國家名. 那不是Kabob(中東烤肉)的故鄉?!
是阿 ~ 妳喜歡吃Kabob? 司機又微笑看著後照鏡的我.
當然! 但是Ally有個問題: 我在台灣吃過Kabob(沙威馬)是像三明治夾點碎碎肉, 和我之後去義大利法國和奧地利吃到的Kabob又都不一樣, </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/1545668204511117207/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=1545668204511117207' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/1545668204511117207'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/1545668204511117207'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/05/no-1-pakistan-style-kabob-in-arlington.html' title='No. 1 Pakistan Style Kabob in Arlington - Ravi Kabob House I &amp; II'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/SDwjp-TH6GI/AAAAAAAAAYg/M26wS4sB7sk/s72-c/May+27_Ravi+Kabob+House+%40+Arlington+on+May+24.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-8590224661923923298</id><published>2008-05-27T00:54:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:07.213-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Am I in Heaven?</title><summary type='text'>

今天發現這個專門介紹台灣美景的新網站覺得很開心, 也想要跟各位一起分享這個屬於台灣寶島的美.

Alex在美國來自中國大陸的學弟即將去台灣做一趟短期研究所以請我幫忙介紹台灣要怎麼玩.
Ally我花很多時間整理出來一份台灣怎麼玩台北怎麼吃, 邊寫其實我的心中還是有很多的驕傲和感動的. 台灣好玩的地方很多, 東台灣的美更是驚人. 雖然我現在不住在台灣也還未有滄桑到旅行世界各地後最思念的還是台灣故鄉的那種愁悵與感慨, 但是要我說台灣為什麼好? 台灣好山好水是其一; 台灣美食小吃很驚人是其二; 最重要的是, 台灣人的確非常友善, 尤其是南台灣人的好客和純樸更是另一份忘不了的感動.

這是一家來D.C.不該錯過的店, Ally我熱愛讀餐廳review, 當你讀一個地區的餐廳review夠多時, 你會發現有些店是不斷的重複用不同的方式讚美歌頌的, Tabard Inn正是其中一家. 

我很喜歡一篇文章談到美食評論: 有時我們不該那麼相信食評, 當然每個人對食物的愛好品味不一是其中一個重點. 再者, 跟電影評論與宣傳短片一樣, 最棒的部份在30秒都已經說完, 搞得大家興致高昂去後才發現, 阿最棒的就是這樣了, 那還要享受個屁? 
所以, 又是誰叫你把期待擺得那麼高? 就是相信你的直覺不要想太多, 去餐廳享受就是了 ~ 

這家店Ally我留到我們2週年慶才去是因為我對它深具信心. Tabard Inn是標榜D.C.最古老的傳統旅館之一. 在靠近政治人文風氣頂盛的Dupont </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/2657905301002173585/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=2657905301002173585' title='2 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/2657905301002173585'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/2657905301002173585'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/05/tabard-inn-perfect-brunch-dupont-circle.html' title='Tabard Inn - Perfect Brunch @ Dupont Circle, Washington D.C.'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/SDOoycqZfSI/AAAAAAAAAYI/WB_2TH6Z828/s72-c/May+20_Tabard+Inn+Perfect+Brunch+on+May+17.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-4848256637002124282</id><published>2008-05-20T17:24:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:07.729-05:00</updated><title type='text'>THE earthquake we are talking about....</title><summary type='text'>

從小我真的沒有幻想過我的婚禮該怎樣, 倒是曾經想嫁的人還真不少 ~ 
我還記得的就有唸景美女中時老是等不到的很78的278路公車, 所以想嫁給任何開278路的公車司機; 喜歡Aerosmith電吉他手神乎其技的Solo演奏Amazing最後令人血脈噴張情緒高亢的ending及主唱是這世界上我聽過鬼吼鬼叫最好聽的人類之ㄧ, 所以也想過嫁老外; 還有Michael Jordan 的冠籃讓我覺得嫁給黑人會唱歌會跳舞會運動也挺好的; 當然還有擁有百寶箱的小叮噹; 麵包師傅到餐廳主廚; 黑道大哥甚至比我肥跑的比我慢的人 ...我想嫁的人太多也變的太快, 之後開始有工作倦怠的毛病時又幻想嫁給田僑仔... 跟大多數的人一樣, Ally我最後選擇的不是那些白日夢想的人, 而是一個連作夢都想不到的人...

來美國快2年了, 有太多人問我一樣的問題: Ally妳到底什麼時候要結婚?

Strathmore是位在D.C.西北方的新音樂廳, 相較於National Kennedy Center, 我們是更常去離我們公寓往北只有3站Metro距離的Strathmore聽音樂. 
今年春天聽了2場很棒的演奏會都是去年年底就買好的門票, 世界知名演奏者的表演永遠一票難求是走到哪一國都一樣的事.

Alfred Brendel, piano on Mar. 17 
3月17日是St. Patrick Day, 那應該是年輕人穿著整身綠, 到愛爾蘭小酒吧開懷暢飲綠色啤酒的歡樂日子.我們卻一反傳統晚上跑去聽Alfred Brendel的鋼琴獨奏會. 
我們真的是非常幸運, 因為這是Mr. Brendel此生在北美洲的最後一場鋼琴演奏會, Mr. Brendel在此後將回到歐洲維也納不會再有如此長途的飛行與表演.

我們相談甚歡, 那小老美很好心的說他認為我over-qualify, 應該直接應徵supervisor的職缺(老娘我在台灣耗了10年寶貴的青春年華賺來的心酸工作資歷也不是在幹假的好嗎!) 我聽到那價碼就整個心花怒放, </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/3701355589743406119/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=3701355589743406119' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/3701355589743406119'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/3701355589743406119'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/04/blog-post_28.html' title='如果機會就像公車一樣的來來去去...'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/SBZR_VvY9WI/AAAAAAAAAWw/almDgpuLxos/s72-c/Apr.+12_Cherry+Blossom+Parade_2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-5984282545915232209</id><published>2008-04-26T20:57:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:09.715-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Ally's very first '08 Bird Fest Volunteer @ National Zoo Park in D.C.</title><summary type='text'>

我非常喜歡D.C.國家動物園, 除了動物園本身管理良好動物種類又多以外, 動物園周邊的住宅水準規劃都很棒, 來動物公園參觀又全年免費, 所以去年夏天第一次來Ally我就決定有機會一定要來這裡做義工. 
D.C.入春後各種戶外活動就跟著熱絡起來. 這個週末是動物園2008的鳥節慶典, 我早在半個月前就收到email通知來當義工參與盛會.

D.C.的各種義工活動種類非常多, 當義工最棒的是可以拿到免費漂亮又有紀念性的T-shirt, 特別是參加Smithsonian相關活動的義工們根本完全不用擔心活動T-shirt會不好看, 他們任何一個博物館辦的活動工作人員穿著的衣服都是很有設計感的, 義工當完那怕只是短短3個小時的班, 幫忙完衣服就是你的囉!

如果你同時來過美國與旅遊過歐洲, 你或許會和一些人一樣有點鄙視"大部分"的美國甜點.

不要誤會, 美國甜點有它可愛的地方,  老美的點心通常是夠甜夠濃夠份量, 唯一的敗筆就是長相上"精緻度"不是太夠, 除非是去有一定程度以上的高級餐廳, 否則通常美國甜點平均來說, 長得是比較美國型的 "粗枝大葉"一點. 更白話的說, 就是跟日本的外型精緻加上口味清淡到不行是完全不同的路線. 

至於歐洲的甜點就又不一樣了. 除了外形上的了檯面外, 濃度也夠而且通常不會過甜, 堪稱是我們心目中甜點界的極品. 來D.C.玩, 去最悠閒又高檔的喬治城走走逛逛買買外加划個獨木舟是一個必要.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?node=cityguide/profile&amp;id=1071592

久聞這家牛排店的盛名, Ray's the Steak顛覆很多正統牛排店的傳統, 包括完全不接受預約定位; 沒有餐廳官網; 還必須等到所有食客都到齊才能真正拿位進去用餐; 服務生不著正式黑白西裝領帶, 全是簡單的素色T-shirt +Jeans的casual dress code; 沒有華麗隆重的室內裝潢, 唯乳白色牆壁和簡單原木桌椅. 
這樣一家不起眼的小店憑什麼被票選D.C.週邊No.1值得一試的牛排店? 憑什麼大家心甘情願在外面癡癡地等個3,40分鐘甚至遠遠超過? 
原因無它, 就是完全專注在它牛排的本身.

Mat你的炸魚炸蝦真是令人回味再三阿!
In Cod We Trust!


去年8月來NYC驚艷到A Salt &amp; Battery傳說中的英式極品炸魚後, 回到D.C.Ally始終念念不忘.
今年4月因為老哥遠從大陸來看我們 (還是主要是來看球賽?!), 我們再次挑戰大蘋果去Yankees朝聖. 
看完球後當然就是Ally我的重頭戲: 再回我思念許久的A Salt &amp; Battery去見Mat現炸的美味鱈魚和大蝦!

不愧是我哥, 對美食我們的確是有共同高尚的品味 ~ 
Alex問: 跟我們家鄉永和的麒麟閣火鍋炸旗魚比起來怎樣?
我哥毫不考慮的回答: 好吃100倍!

沒那麼誇張啦! Ally我是覺得各有春秋, 畢竟旗魚跟鱈魚我都好愛! 但炸大蝦可是只有我們Mat有在賣!
我哥吃完一個龍心大悅的同時賞了港幣與人民幣小費. Mat也回覆說我們的合照很快會登上他們的官網.

2個禮拜短暫美麗的櫻花季轉眼即將結束, 依照近50年來D.C.的傳統, 最後一個周末就是在櫻花大遊行和日本美食文化慶典後畫上櫻花粉紅色的句點.

以前在台灣的我對日本傳統文化倒是沒有多大的興趣, 但是住到美國後, 總是看到同樣來自亞洲的東西都會莫名的開心起來, 更別說是看到老外穿上和服跳日本藝妓 (sorry, 是傳統) 舞蹈的那種時空錯亂混搭的笑點! 當然, 好吃的日本美食怎能錯過?! 當你看到老外們排隊狂買日式燒肉鯛魚燒的那付餓壞了的樣子, 就知道為什麼亞洲美食能夠如此深深打動他們的心.

賞櫻的人那麼多, Ally我卻從沒聽過任何人在櫻花樹下有感而發的唱出這首專門為了我們美麗嬌豔的粉紅花兒所譜出來的動人歌曲?!

是不懂日文嗎? 沒關係, 貼心的Ally幫各位在You Tube上找到了這首英日對照的雙語教唱!

甘迺迪國家音樂廳位在波多馬克 (Potomac River) 沿岸的一棟白色極簡建築物. 喜歡音樂文藝活動表演又住在D.C.週遭的居民絕對不會感到陌生. 去年8月我們在此欣賞歌劇魅影的舞台劇演出, 它的劇場不大但是瞬間變換的舞台設計與聲光效果絕對是不虛此行. 如果不想開車去, D.C. Metro的Foggy Bottom-GWU站外每15分鐘都會有一班紅色免費接駁小巴相當方便. 今年夏天馬友友的演出門票在去年夏天早已銷售一空, 美國國家音樂廳的門票難買也是沒有在輸紐約洋基隊的!

是的! 這個標題光是聽到就覺得很白痴, 美國和台灣本來就不同, 有什麼好比的? 是比雞腿和XP還是怎樣?
真是要比, 連說一個禮拜也是說不完的. 我Ally也不是台灣美國全部都曾走透透, 只不過是待在我們比爾大叔這裡轉眼也快2年了, 雖然真正住過的地方也都是美國的大城市, 所以跟台北市來比一比也還算公平.相較於以往學生時代暑假來玩耍或是工作後情路上心碎放逐到美國, 1個月的假期都是純粹做個短暫觀光客. 現在在美國可是日復一日的生活又是全然另一回事, 雖然好命如我也不太在擔心煩惱每日的柴米油鹽房租費, 只需要計畫怎樣好好開心充實地過日子. 不過以下幾點真是到目前為止最讓Ally我覺得台灣美國大不同的地方!

這海報特別強調不想講出"那個"會有老鼠出沒四處亂竄的恐怖捷運名稱, 
說真的, Ally我旅行過的所有國家以及美國幾個有大眾運輸系統的城市, 尤其是歐洲更不乏歷史更為悠久的Metro系統, 而且歐洲人又特別愛抽菸喝酒. 儘管搭巴黎地鐵時地上會有一堆啤酒罐滾來滾去, 但是像紐約那麼骯髒又尿酸臭的Metro我還真的是去年夏天第一次領教到. 這也難怪我讀很多來D.C.賞花的紐約流學生部落格, 說到搭D.C. Metro馬上就有一種從每天住在青年旅館都不如的鳥爛房間直接昇等到4星級飯店般天壤之別的全新感受.

DC Metro的乾淨程度與大部分的亞洲國家相仿, 雖然D.C.坐Metro通勤的人也很多, 但是大家都遵守這好規定, 不在Metro上吃吃喝喝, 所以乾淨度是很OK的. 只要是任何提到FBI或白宮情治相關的美國電影題材,</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/5683225758091348263/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=5683225758091348263' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/5683225758091348263'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/5683225758091348263'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/04/which-subway-system-has-rats-roaming.html' title='Which subway system has Rats roaming around Metro?'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/R_aPSxFu_4I/AAAAAAAAAVE/bYQl9lss2JM/s72-c/Mar.+26_DC+Metro+Poster.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-4053061958269732891</id><published>2008-03-15T17:18:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:13.182-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Come have a brandnew Groovy Haircut at AVEDA !</title><summary type='text'>

剪髮"對像Ally這種短髮的女生來說是非常重要的一部份. 不像長頭髮比較無所謂, 女生中短髮1.5至2個月不修理還真是怪嚇人的! 以前在台北給設計師剪髮不是難事, 台北市滿坑滿谷的大小理髮店要N年給不同的設計師做照型也沒問題. Ally畢業後先到日式的Socie剪髮, 後來乾脆轉戰到知名的EROS給Perry打理, 雖然價格不算便宜但是高雅的服務與享受就是一分錢一分貨. 來美國一年半多以來我給香港和韓國設計師剪過, 價錢沒有比台北高級店便宜也就算了, 倒是服務及水準差了一大節, 幾乎就是走一個家庭理髮路線, 特別是跟我們的EROS比較起來. Ally當然知道在美國只要肯砸錢什麼高檔的服務會沒有? 就是真的銀子要砸很多下去就是了... 後來無意間發現特區的Chinatown有AVEDA專業剪髮學院, 我真是開心的咧!  終於又可以用實惠的價格享受到AVEDA</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/4053061958269732891/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=4053061958269732891' title='5 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/4053061958269732891'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/4053061958269732891'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/03/come-have-brandnew-groovy-haircut-at.html' title='Come have a brandnew Groovy Haircut at AVEDA !'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/R9w9Tr8XwpI/AAAAAAAAAU8/yap0E8elTPk/s72-c/AVEDA.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-3727955573543233968</id><published>2008-03-15T15:30:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-15T15:31:44.994-04:00</updated><title type='text'>風行電影隨時隨地無國界免費看 !</title><summary type='text'>Movie on Demand - Funshion Free Streaming Movies All-You-Can-Watch !

在美國舉凡上餐館, 剪頭髮, 叫Taxi..., 任何需要他人服務的地方, 給小費總是免不了的, 這不是什麼稀奇的事, 雖然對我們這種來自不需要給小費國家的人來說, 或許一開始會不太習慣, 久了也就入境隨俗, 況且這裏的服務生底薪本就微薄, 小費自然是他們的主要收入來源, 如果服務態度不錯, 多給一些額外費用也是無可厚非. 所以"給小費"這件事從來就沒有bother過我們. 也因為服務生靠的是賺小費, 如果去餐廳吃到過鹹過生或任何讓你不舒服的理由, 你都可以不需要客氣的請服務生端進去要求裡面的廚師重做.

Lemon Risotto with Shrimps

熱愛義大利菜系的我真該來說說Risotto, 這道菜餚聽說是早期義大利北方貧窮人家的食物, 就是有什麼剩菜剩肉就放什麼煮, 這樣一路流傳到現在變成高檔貨, 只要在比較正統的義大利餐廳應該都吃的到這樣的佳餚. 東方人因為同樣嗜吃米飯, 所以學做義式燉飯應該是很適合. 
只是一定要選用對的米, 否則怎能稱之為Risotto呢? Arborio米在美國比較大的超市應該都買的到, 因為比較貴, 所以就是找包裝最精緻的那區米囉! Arborio是Risotto中最重要的角色. 這種米特色就是外型比較短圓而且易吸收湯汁, 所以很適合用在做濃稠的燉飯. 請記得它跟煮中式米飯不一樣的是完全不需要事先洗米, 另外Arborio也常拿來作義大利甜點米布丁.

肥肉懼怕者  此篇請止步 

"致命手工肉燥"是Alex難得幫我取的菜名. 我個人是非常喜歡啦! 至於這是好吃的致命或是肥的出人命的致命就是見仁見智了. 無論如何我認為肉燥飯是台菜的國粹之ㄧ, 它的好吃與地位應該是要與義大利的Pizza齊名才對. 只是現代人怕肥, 特別是台北有越來越多的肉燥都是用純瘦絞肉亂充數製成的, 總是心痛少了那麼一份濃郁的口感. Ally我喜歡的肉燥是用肥瘦剛好的五花肉, 不能用機器快速絞出來的那種, 而是用手工慢切小火慢煨的傳統手工肉燥. 而這些也就是最花時間的工夫了. 首先選用一塊花色漂亮, 半肥半瘦的五花肉在微冰狀態下比較好切成手工細絲, 專門切肉的好刀在此時更是非常重要. 我敗了美金100元左右的德製WUSTHOF後從此做菜心情更是大好, 尤其是要花半個多小時來專心伺候那塊肉好成為誘人的條條細絲時...</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/973445798322393267/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=973445798322393267' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/973445798322393267'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/973445798322393267'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/02/ally11.html' title='Ally的混搭創意小廚房之11 - 翁式致命手工肉燥'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/R7H8lAHsr4I/AAAAAAAAAS8/h6kr6Z3B0p4/s72-c/11_%E7%BF%81%E5%BC%8F%E8%87%B4%E5%91%BD%E6%89%8B%E5%B7%A5%E8%82%89%E7%87%A5.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-663845278178176055</id><published>2008-02-10T17:46:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:23.275-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Ally的混搭創意小廚房之10 – 從麵粉和水開始談起的餅皮</title><summary type='text'>
All About The Flour

剛搬來美國一開始住南加州Pasadena的時候, 每每看到我其他久住美國的台灣或大陸朋友們開心的吃著那不是那麼道地的中式小吃和中國菜時我都會很不解: 為什麼既然都住在美國了, 就多吃點美國道地好吃的東西囉? 何必苦苦區就這些不中不西的中國菜咧? 

沒錯! 該死Ally我就是美國住不夠久!!! 什麼東西都是這樣的, 一開始就算超極好吃, 每天吃, 吃久了也會不稀奇. 特別是要任何一個從小就在滿坑滿谷美味台灣小吃中長大的台灣人, 真的很難每天光從美式的pizza, burger, hot dog, pasta..裡尋求味蕾的極大滿足... 所以, 才來還沒2年的我, 也開始好奇地嘗試著:"家鄉味努力不求人"的凡事DIY路線! *嘆息*...還能求誰咧? 這邊最快也要開車或搭Metro半個多小時去Rockville吃個台灣小吃也! 是的, 即便如此</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/663845278178176055/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=663845278178176055' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/663845278178176055'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/663845278178176055'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2008/02/ally10.html' title='Ally的混搭創意小廚房之10 – 從麵粉和水開始談起的餅皮'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/R69--AHsr3I/AAAAAAAAAS0/YpF97bqu2mQ/s72-c/10_The+Dough_%E9%A4%85%E7%9A%AE.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-567594180238380082</id><published>2008-02-06T17:49:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:23.426-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Ally的混搭創意小廚房之9 - Chinese New Year Eve Feast!</title><summary type='text'>

雖然這次只有2個人, 又在CNN忙著報導Tennessee災情和總統初選結果, 完全沒有任何中國年節氣氛的華盛頓特區渡過, 既然決定不外出餐廳慶祝, 我還是好好的計畫了一下我們的東西混搭年夜大餐. 
而以下, 就是最後敲板定案的菜色:

1. 茴香紅酒燉牛小排 / Cumin Beef Rib in Red Wine
2. 泰式椰奶雞肉蔬菜綠咖哩 / Thai Coconut Chicken Green Curry
3. 奶油乾煎石斑佐檸檬醬 / Cod Fillet with Butter Key Lime Sauce 
4. 第戎芥末蜂蜜脆烤鴨腿 / Crispy Honey Duck with Dijon Mustard 
5. 義式甜點提拉米蘇 / Tiramisu

貼這種海報到底有什麼幫助?

我不喜歡談政治, 以前的Ally我是傾向無論如何都應該壯大在野黨, 讓已經執政幾十年, 且從沒有被其他政黨有辦法牽制與制衡的執政黨, 能夠有相當程度的約束力量. 但是當有一天在野黨終於拿到了執政權且真正開始執政後, 我才深刻的了解到, 什麼叫做權力腐化人心! 搞政治的到底那些人有良知? 我不知道! 所以後來Ally我就不再投票, 也不愛關心任何有關政治的新聞. 因為選誰都爛, 對我而言! 
看政治新聞跟看演藝八卦新聞又有什麼不同呢? 不過就是演藝人員還會不停地動手術拉皮的想辦法去維持那表面漂亮的美好, 但那些人民票選出來的醜陋政客們就是會讓你不斷痛心台灣這樣地被他們無止境的內耗…

現在在D.C., 日子過太好, 少了辦公室的人事物可以讓我罵, 但想吃串燒的心可是從來沒有改變過阿! 那天想到剛好買了些特價帶皮的雞胸肉和好多美味丸子, 不如Ally我來自己在家自己串自己燒!!!

串燒真的很簡單! 在家少了炭火現烤的燻燒味, 所以在『燒汁』上一定要做更多品質上的提昇! 方法很簡單! 只要選用上好的燒烤醬汁, 在一般日本或大型東方超市都買的到, 配上芝蘭粉, 芝麻粉, 各式義大利香料, 還有從墨西哥至中國式的各種辣醬, </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/7214720304839071508/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=7214720304839071508' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/7214720304839071508'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/7214720304839071508'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2007/09/ally6.html' title='Ally的混搭創意小廚房之6 – 日式串燒不求人!'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/RuVtxZjDnLI/AAAAAAAAAQs/QuTAdTTrEv0/s72-c/6_Yakitori_2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-5632681796241738129</id><published>2007-09-10T00:35:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:24.633-05:00</updated><title type='text'>正宗義大利拿波里Pizza @ 2 Amys in Washington D.C.</title><summary type='text'>

Washington D.C.包含附近Maryland的幾個住宅商區的餐廳實在是太多太多了. 
Ally我愛吃,但是我們不是富翁, 所以我還有個嗜好就是到處看各種美食評鑑去交叉比對真正大家都說好吃的餐廳. 太高級昂貴又正式的餐廳不是我們的首選, 價格合理又美味才是親民的選擇. 其實Ally我真的覺得愛吃並不是全然的壞處. 愛吃多吃除了在有一天你想要下廚時, 或許會有比較多的sense以外; 愛吃多吃還能讓你認識一些特別的各國專有菜餚字彙和一些有趣好玩的民情文化!

想起去年7月去義大利旅行快半個月, 我真的是被那正統的義大利Pizzeria (Pizza)給嚇到了! 好好吃!!! 皮很薄脆, 那微焦的木炭味和新鮮的食材風味, 是從小在台灣長大的我很少有機會能吃到的. 所以當我看到幾乎所有介紹D.C.美食的書都介紹到這家正宗的</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/5632681796241738129/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=5632681796241738129' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/5632681796241738129'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/5632681796241738129'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2007/09/pizza-2-amys-in-washington-dc.html' title='正宗義大利拿波里Pizza @ 2 Amys in Washington D.C.'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/RuTJ_JjDnJI/AAAAAAAAAQc/IUrOH-KKRl4/s72-c/Sep.+9,+2+Amys+in+Aug.+%2707.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-7433473537907840294</id><published>2007-09-09T22:15:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:24.895-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Let’s play Canoes along Potomac River @ Washington D.C.'s Georgetown !</title><summary type='text'>

生活在美國的人如果喜歡看Food Channel, 應該都會對Everyday Italian裡面那位性感的小妞, 擁有一半義大利羅馬血統的Giada de Laurentiis不陌生. 因為我個人覺得她應該是目前Food Channel裡面最漂亮的女主廚了! 看她做菜, 似乎每道義大利菜都好簡單又好好吃. 所以我說, 漂亮女人做菜還真是浪漫又性感阿! (當然本身長得性感還是很重要的!) 我也是女人, 我也喜歡看Giada做菜. 而且我發現她幾乎是唯一一個我看過上節目做菜會把手上所有戒子拿掉的人. 我真的很介意看到在電視上教觀眾烹飪的那些人, 用他/她們那戴著大鑽戒的手, 在肉泥裡躦來躦去的樣子. 不要說他/她們的鑽戒會沾染一堆肉泥, 我覺得連那整碗肉也因此變得不是那麼美味可口了. 另外, 我也非常不欣賞那些教人家烹飪的女廚師在做菜時, </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/1128543898368826431/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=1128543898368826431' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/1128543898368826431'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/1128543898368826431'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2007/09/tapas-jaleo-washington-dc.html' title='今天來說西班牙Tapas ! – Jaleo @ Washington D.C.'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/RuIBoZjDnHI/AAAAAAAAAQM/drnaXPF1PIg/s72-c/Sep.+7,+Jaleo+Tapas+on+Aug.+9.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-6876086304781762536</id><published>2007-09-07T00:15:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:27.202-05:00</updated><title type='text'>紐約市票選 No. 1 Breakfast - Norma’s @ Parker Meridien Hotel</title><summary type='text'>

就如同世界各地的知名大飯店裡的餐廳, Norma’s有著明亮時尚的裝潢設計, 外加有質感也相當有重量與設計的餐具. 它的果汁標榜全是當天早上的現榨, 所以就坐後我就一直咕嚕咕嚕地喝了好幾杯果汁和咖啡. 咖啡到沒什麼特別, 只是提神用. 畢竟我們現在自己在家裡也已經是走現煮義大利咖啡的路線. 不過Norma’s的果汁的確是不錯喝的!

Homemade Crispy Shrimp Cake!

旅居美國一年多來, 每每人家問我最懷念的美食在台灣? 我幾乎都會毫不猶豫的回答: 當然是台南最讚的周式蝦捲阿! 雖然以前其實也是工作居住在台北, 但是每次有機會南下美食府城台南市, 周式蝦捲是Ally我一定要點個3盤的美食啦! 那美妙酥脆又香死人不償命的鮮美好滋味, 就是會讓人忍不住一口接著一口耶。。。

但Ally我也心知度明, 有些東西複製容易, 但是周式蝦捲, 我一輩子都不敢奓想我能做出什麼鬼東西能夠有它的1/10像. 話說那天晚上在家看Food Channel在比賽做Carb Cake (緬因州蟹肉餅), 想想因為我的資質弩盾不太會啃螃蟹肉, 又想到家裡冷凍櫃裡還有一包新鮮的去頭蝦, 心理想: 好吧, 讓Ally我來想想看怎樣搞個混搭鮮肉蝦餅好了!

所以, 我的新朋友Pandora的強項並不是它的網路收聽, 而是你可以在它的網站上面選擇自己想要聽的歌手或是歌曲, 因此它可以幫你把你喜歡的歌手或是類似風格的其他歌手與歌曲都體貼的幫你找出來, 好像老鼠會一樣你就可以知1知10知100, 也就是利用它的database和所有station儲存, 你就可以把自己喜歡的風格, 屬於你自己的音樂資料庫放在一起; </summary><link rel='related' href='http://www.pandora.com' title='Ally我愛潘朵拉音樂線上盒 !!!'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/8508597076713740327/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=8508597076713740327' title='1 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/8508597076713740327'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/8508597076713740327'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2007/08/ally_3828.html' title='Ally我愛潘朵拉音樂線上盒 !!!'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/Rs2jsJjDmwI/AAAAAAAAAM4/4xU6YvfHnwI/s72-c/Pandora.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-5220863197291070264</id><published>2007-08-21T17:21:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:31.532-05:00</updated><title type='text'>今天來談Washington D.C.(華盛頓特區)之首集: 我最愛Smithsonian !</title><summary type='text'>

聽說這是一位可敬的日本甜點達人繼在日本東京的國際甜點街開店後, 遠赴重洋到對甜點最自豪的法國巴黎開另一家甜點店要與法國佬一較高下.
青木定治當然不是我們在巴黎唯一吃到的甜點店 且每個人對甜點的喜好也不同, 我們在巴黎也吃了幾家國際有名的Macaron (杏仁圓餅) 專賣店, 但之所以只提Sadaharu AOKI, 是因為我在那家店看到了所謂”藝術品”真正的精神, 就跟它們的標價一樣. 非常的神聖不可侵犯. 全店除了禁止拍照外, 也不接受店內用餐, 所以我們只能很難選擇地挑了3個不同口味的糕點, 小心奕奕地趕搭地鐵回旅館享用.
青木定治蛋糕本身外型的設計, 漸層的顏色搭配, 還有每一口咬下去豐富卻又層次分明的口感,</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/7658918826313362200/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=7658918826313362200' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/7658918826313362200'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/7658918826313362200'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2007/08/part-ii.html' title='淺談法國美食Part II'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/RsY3NZjDmkI/AAAAAAAAALc/EG-biCSL-Lo/s72-c/Eric+Kayser_outside+French+bread.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-445054278178148622</id><published>2007-08-17T16:22:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-09T21:34:33.426-05:00</updated><title type='text'>淺談法國美食之1 - 法國豬在法國!</title><summary type='text'>

就甚至連那最浪漫的愛情, 那最自然而又激情的隨意街頭擁吻, 立刻映入我們眼簾的, 也只能發生在巴黎街頭, 在那隨時刻轉移不斷變換光芒的巴黎鐵塔下…

其實, 這個小把戲一年前Ally我在台北早就想過了,
這樣1張悠遊卡再賣我們小百姓NT$ 500元, 真的太好賺!
可是, 其實大部份我們台北人都早就已經有悠遊卡了阿, 對不對?
所以Ally我要在這裡告訴大家怎麼省錢玩這招:
你們就把自己滿意的數位照片,
帶到士林或其他很多有大頭貼機器的地方,
其中有一台是把你們的照片轉印在3M悠遊卡size的塑膠貼紙上,
2張一組只要NT$ 50元 (我不確定1年後有沒有漲價!),
情侶2人還可以把省下的錢, 去旁邊士林夜市吃個生炒花枝加上士林大香腸.
有得吃又有得玩, 絕對NT$ 770有找!
台北捷運局的趙組長, 如果你看到請不要生氣! ^^
我沒做So-net卡, 又在這裡拆你的台...
可我們小老百姓, 錢是要花在刀口上的!

Creamy Alfredo with Chinese Chili Chicken Calamarata Pasta

在美國, 我喜歡做義大利麵. 原因無他, 因為真的很方便! 美國超市充斥著各種美式,義式和墨西哥式的料理醬料, 所以身在美國你應該會覺得: 做義大利麵真簡單!
在一般美國超市, 最容易取得的醬汁應該就是蕃茄醬汁, 也就是台灣所謂”紅醬”了.
我個人從一開始做蕃茄義大利麵, 就很頑固的堅持要用新鮮的蕃茄, 新鮮蕃茄味道當然比較好, 但是必須要忍受慢慢燉蕃茄直到變軟, 還要細心的把蕃茄外皮挑掉, 在平底鍋非常燙的情況下, 那其中的苦, 只有真正做過的人才會知道.
所以, 你如果不想那麼講究, 丟掉我的堅持, 去超市買已經剝好皮的整顆蕃茄或蕃茄塊/蕃茄片罐頭來料理, 罐頭種類應有盡有!
另外還有一種台灣很常見的青醬麵, 就是用義大利香料basil做的醬汁, </summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/5608293875674437271/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=5608293875674437271' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/5608293875674437271'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/5608293875674437271'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2007/08/ally3.html' title='Ally的混搭創意小廚房之3 – 崗山辣豆瓣醬與正統義大利麵的關係?'/><author><name>allyweng</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16975954872402425727</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Dm3PP9feTbg/RsOL5QtzEUI/AAAAAAAAAIc/2piSWGapcxk/s72-c/Creamy+Alfredo+Chinese+Chili+Chicken+Calamarata+Pasta.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8620320.post-7411904074686034294</id><published>2007-08-15T12:35:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-08-15T12:46:34.060-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Letter to Flow about My Dream</title><summary type='text'>來美國一年來, 是我31年來改變最大的一年, 不管在各方面…

我的大部份朋友都知道我超愛吃, 從路邊攤一路吃到高級餐館, 有多少預算能吃多少算多少. 而且我從小就愛吃, 就算吃不到, 也會起碼想要知道!
小時候, 我媽都跟鄰居說, 如果我連滷3層肉都食不下嚥, 就表示我的病情是到需要住院的嚴重等級. 以前在台灣, 我在辦公室裡也組織過幾個美食聚樂部, 就是找一些志同道合的酒肉朋友固定去吃喝, 大家一起分擔, 菜色種類也多, 我怎樣都划算.
只是, 我Ally生性懶散, 而且非常相信專業, 所以一直以來, 我都是花錢上館子去吃, 或是想辦法在婚喪喜慶或是無聊的各種應酬場合裡想辦法多吃多嘗試. 我可是從來也沒有想到過要自己進廚房弄個什麼鬼出來. 所以進廚房對我來說, 只是泡茶泡泡麵的地方. 況且我的家鄉大台北地區有個最大的好處是: 小吃好吃方便又便宜, 像我家永和市50公尺方圓, 我相信我總是可以隨便找到起碼20種口味不同的台幣不超過100</summary><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/feeds/420756332850685698/comments/default' title='張貼意見'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8620320&amp;postID=420756332850685698' title='0 個意見'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/420756332850685698'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8620320/posts/default/420756332850685698'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allyweng.blogspot.com/2007/08/ally2-homemade-honey-fried-mini-chicken.html' title='Ally的混搭創意小廚房之2 - 自己來做蜜糖小雞塊!

我幾天前在看Food Channel的Rachael Ray時, 竟然突發奇想:
我Ally為何不來做做看所謂中西合璧的:"香滷軟炸大腸脆蘆筍捲"呢?

這菜聽起來很特別吧? 而且真的是我自己想到的耶...
當然顧名思義, 想要做好這道菜, 無非就是:
1) 把那最重要的靈魂材料: 整條大腸頭給好好洗乾淨, 並用Ally我天敵般無比的耐心去努力地花時間燉軟它
2) 選用新鮮的蘆筍, 洗淨, 切段並且川燙好備用.
3) 再來就是想辦法用學生時代做複雜手工藝品的技巧, 非常非常小心地將川燙後又過完冷水的蘆筍, 一根一根地篩進燉軟好的大腸條裡। 沒錯, 那滷大腸絕對是燙又滑不溜丟地讓你覺得, 你他媽的是不是沒有大腦阿? 竟然會想到這種自以為是天才小主廚的好差事來惡搞自己! 

4) 都裝填好了以後, 就是用小火酥炸這些得來不易的手捲們, 直到腸子外皮呈現美麗的金黃色, 就可以上桌了!
