Yowza! Moments

A Yowza! Moment is when I taste or drink or see something that’s truly special to me and makes me want to scream Yowza!  It might not be the fanciest or the best, but somehow it resonates with me in an extraordinary way.  Here is a current list of my Yowza! Moments thus far.

Yowza! Moment #1 – Jamaican Beef Patty
Every now and again, I eat something that makes me scream “Yowza!” It does not happen often and to be quite honest, it does not happen often enough. We’ve become a society satisfied …..

Yowza! Moment #2 – Sweet Potato

Yowza! Moment #8 – “Jiro Dreams of Sushi”

Yowza! Moment #9 – Canelés de Bordeaux

Yowza! Moment #10 – Edible Canada at the Market
On Friday afternoon, I had the pleasure of enjoying a three hour lunch with two of my favorite dining companions.  I had not seen “Tugboat Annie” and my old sous chef “Bunessa” in over six …..
