The Fat Cow
The Fat Cow was a restaurant owned and run by chef Gordon Ramsay and his business partner, Rowen Seibel. It opened in 2012 at The Grove shopping centre in Los Angeles, and after a series of legal challenges, it closed permanently in 2014. The menu was described by Ramsay as one you might expect to find in a "neighborhood restaurant." History Scottish chef Gordon Ramsay trademarked the name "The Fat Cow" in the UK in 2011, leading to speculation that he was about to open a chain of mid-priced steak and barbecue restaurants. Prior to its opening in the United States, it was publicised as partially following this concept with Ramsay describing it as "a place where people can just relax and enjoy a delicious European inspired meal". The Fat Cow opened on 1 October 2012, located in The Grove shopping centre in Los Angeles as a joint venture between Ramsay and his business partner Rowen Seibel. The head chef at the time of opening was Mathew Woolf, while Andi Van Willigan was involve ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Zagat
The ''Zagat Survey'', commonly referred to as Zagat (stylized in all caps; , ) and established by Tim and Nina Zagat in 1979, is an organization which collects and correlates the ratings of restaurants by diners. For their first guide, covering New York City, the Zagats surveyed their friends. At its height around 2005, the ''Zagat Survey'' included 70 cities, with reviews based on the input of 250,000 individuals with the guides reporting on and rating restaurants, hotels, Nightlife (activity), nightlife, shopping, zoos, museums, music, Film, movies, Theatre, theaters, Golf, golf courses, and airlines.

Burrata
Burrata () is an Italian cow milk (occasionally buffalo milk) cheese made from mozzarella and cream. The outer casing is solid cheese, while the inside contains stracciatella and cream, giving it an unusual, soft texture. It is typical of Apulia. History Burrata is a typical product of Murgia in the south of Italy. It is produced from cow's milk, rennet, and cream. Burrata may have origins dating back to about 1900, produced at the Bianchino brothers (Lorenzo and Vincenzo) farm in the city of Andria within Murgia, an area in the Apulian region. More recent records have shown that Lorenzo Bianchino of the Piana Padura farm first developed the product in 1956. In the 1950s, it became more widely available after some local cheese factories began producing it and it can be a useful way of using up the ''ritagli'' ("scraps" or "rags") of mozzarella. In November 2016 "Burrata di Andria" became a protected geographical indication (PGI) product. Established as an artisanal cheese, ...

Celeriac
Celeriac (''Apium graveolens'' var. ''rapaceum''), also called celery root, knob celery, and turnip-rooted celery (although it is not a close relative of the turnip), is a variety of celery cultivated for its edible stem or hypocotyl, and shoots. Celeriac is like a root vegetable except it has a bulbous hypocotyl with many small roots attached. In the Mediterranean Basin and in Northern Europe, celeriac is widely cultivated. It is also cultivated in North Africa, Siberia, Southwest Asia, and North America. In North America, the 'Diamant' cultivar predominates. History Celeriac and celery originated in the Mediterranean Basin. It was mentioned in the ''Iliad'' and ''Odyssey'' as ''selinon''. ''Σέλινον'' has been translated by Lattimore as "the parsley that grows in wet places," by Murray as " parsley of the marsh," and by Butler as " wild celery." Celeriac was grown as a medicinal crop in some early civilizations. Celery contains a plant compound called apigeni ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Macaroni And Cheese
Macaroni and cheese (also called mac and cheese in Canada and the United States and macaroni cheese in the United KingdomBBC, RecipesMacaroni Cheese/ref>) is a dish of cooked macaroni pasta and a cheese sauce, most commonly Cheddar sauce. The traditional macaroni and cheese is a casserole baked in the oven; however, it may be prepared in a sauce pan on top of the stove or using a packaged mix. The cheese is often first incorporated into a Béchamel sauce to create a Mornay sauce, which is then added to the pasta. In the United States, it is considered a comfort food. History Cheese and pasta casseroles were recorded in the 14th century in the Italian cookbook, ''Liber de Coquina'', which featured a dish of Parmesan cheese and pasta. A cheese and pasta casserole known as ''makerouns'' was recorded in the 14th-century medieval English cookbook, the ''Forme of Cury''. It was made with fresh, hand-cut pasta which was sandwiched between a mixture of melted butter and cheese. The r ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
The Grove At Farmers Market
The Grove is a retail and entertainment complex in Los Angeles, located on parts of the historic Farmers Market. History The complex fills space previously occupied by an orchard and nursery, which were the last remains of a dairy farm owned by A. F. Gilmore in the latter part of the 19th century. The developers began demolition of an antiques alley and other older buildings on Third Street behind CBS Television City, and broke ground for the new mall in 1999. There was some controversy over potentially increasing traffic in a busy Los Angeles neighborhood that already offered several other shopping venues, including the Beverly Center. The Grove opened in 2002. The Warner Bros. tabloid television news program ''Extra'' was also taped in the complex from 2010-2013, usually on the mall's lawn area. Since November 2015, it has also served as a venue for the finales of ''Dancing with the Stars''. The history behind the development of the A. F. Gilmore property that eventually ...

Lobster
Lobsters are a family (biology), family (Nephropidae, Synonym (taxonomy), synonym Homaridae) of marine crustaceans. They have long bodies with muscular tails and live in crevices or burrows on the sea floor. Three of their five pairs of legs have claws, including the first pair, which are usually much larger than the others. Highly prized as seafood, lobsters are economically important and are often one of the most profitable commodities in coastal areas they populate. Commercially important species include two species of ''Homarus'' from the northern Atlantic Ocean and scampi (which look more like a shrimp, or a "mini lobster")—the Northern Hemisphere genus ''Nephrops'' and the Southern Hemisphere genus ''Metanephrops''. Distinction Although several other groups of crustaceans have the word "lobster" in their names, the unqualified term "lobster" generally refers to the clawed lobsters of the family Nephropidae. Clawed lobsters are not closely related to spiny lobsters o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
