Many spring events in NYC have played host to this humble green: At the Art Production Funds gala last week the vegetable was served with lemon, Serrano peppers, and mint. At Frieze New York, the green showed up as a hearty Caesar salad at Fat Radish's concession stand. And at the Creative Time gala, the chewy leaf once again took a star turn. Looks like this food is proving itself a staple in the world of quickly changing food trends. ]]> http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/kale-is-now-the-marker-of-cool/feed/ 0 http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/liquor-brands-by-celebrity-endorsement/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=liquor-brands-by-celebrity-endorsement http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/liquor-brands-by-celebrity-endorsement/#comments Fri, 17 May 2013 18:38:13 +0000 Charlotte Wilder http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/?post_type=links&p=34008 this quiz from Ad Age.]]> http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/liquor-brands-by-celebrity-endorsement/feed/ 0 http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/grown-man-gets-stuck-in-high-chair-at-mcdonalds/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=grown-man-gets-stuck-in-high-chair-at-mcdonalds http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/grown-man-gets-stuck-in-high-chair-at-mcdonalds/#comments Fri, 17 May 2013 18:37:12 +0000 Charlotte Wilder http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/?post_type=links&p=34007 gets stuck in a high chair at McDonald's and the cops have to come pull him out. In fact, three policemen in Cork, Ireland, had to come to the rescue of this oversized baby. Not surprisingly, witnesses say alcohol may have contributed to the adult male's desire to fit inside the small chair. ]]> http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/grown-man-gets-stuck-in-high-chair-at-mcdonalds/feed/ 0 http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/fiery-apron-clad-little-ladies-on-mo-roccas-cooking-show-my-grandmothers-ravioli/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fiery-apron-clad-little-ladies-on-mo-roccas-cooking-show-my-grandmothers-ravioli http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/fiery-apron-clad-little-ladies-on-mo-roccas-cooking-show-my-grandmothers-ravioli/#comments Fri, 17 May 2013 18:35:28 +0000 Charlotte Wilder http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/?post_type=links&p=34006 Cooking Channel show called "My Grandmother's Ravioli."

And that bone, full of marrow and served alongside oxtail pastrami, is that there is no way to qualify "best" when it comes to restaurants and cooking. He takes issue mainly with the idea that in order to be "the best," chefs must follow trends and try to one-up each other in terms of how avant garde their offerings are. Maws bucks the trend of following trends: "Because while aesthetics may change and 'Best' lists are revised," he says, "great flavors remain great. And food cooked with heart and soul doesn’t need to be gussied up to look the part of what’s labeled as 'hot.'”]]> http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/tony-maws-on-defining-best-in-the-restaurant-world/feed/ 0 http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/edible-intricate-cake-sculptures-from-marcella-robin/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=edible-intricate-cake-sculptures-from-marcella-robin http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/edible-intricate-cake-sculptures-from-marcella-robin/#comments Thu, 16 May 2013 19:38:28 +0000 Charlotte Wilder http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/?post_type=links&p=33888 this video featuring baker Marcella Robin, of Portland, Oregon, making her sculpturesque confections (it should come as no surprise that she has an art degree). Our favorite part about her cakes is how edible they are: She uses no fondants, only sponge cake layered with a variety of creams, custards, and mousses, so they'll taste as good as they look. ]]> http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/edible-intricate-cake-sculptures-from-marcella-robin/feed/ 0 http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/beer-for-dogs/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=beer-for-dogs http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/links/beer-for-dogs/#comments Thu, 16 May 2013 19:37:32 +0000 Charlotte Wilder http://www.americastestkitchenfeed.com/?post_type=links&p=33887 Bowser Beer: It's a cold brew for your furry friend made from meat-broth, malt barley, and glucosamine, a compound added for joint health.

Emergency workers, victims, and government officials were among those who feasted on over 60,000 hors d'oeuvres, which included ceviche shots, seared duck breast, oysters, foie gras, and many other delicacies.
