Reflections

It’s Sunday morning (well, half past one actually) and I have a bit of Liza time before I have to head to NOLA Gastropub.  We had our first rain last night in a long time and there is something a bit serene about this particular Sunday morning.  I am very...

Queso fresco & huevos rancheros

She taste better than she looks, PROMISE!! I’m not really sure if I should call this huevos rancheros because it’s more of a chilaquiles with salsa roja instead of salsa verde AND the tortilla is fried, which I believe isn’t how they roll in México. Whatever it is, it’s bursting...

Southern Stuffed Cheese Nest

I’m not really sure what to say. It’s one of those recipes that leaves you speechless.  Sheer pride in every bite. I first saw the idea on the other side of the Atlantic a few months back. I finally caved when I had access to good soft cheese & canned...

Nola is open 7 days a week!

Hola and happy Friday! I’m back at LAB, two cookies deep, headphones in and back online. Isn’t it pretty incredible that it’s a Friday and I’m not at the restaurant? YES. Yes yes yes. You know how that happened?  By building the best NOLA team possible. I am so grateful...

Little life changes

So many new things in my life are happening. Some of them I am consciously changing, and others are sneaking their way in but somehow seem to connect with other variables of my life.  (Does that even make sense?) It all started a couple of weeks ago when I started obsessing...
