No Match for Match!

"The Burgers Back In Town..." sung to the boys are back in town... :) it's early! Alright here is the scoop, the skinny, the 411. CT Bites has covered it, Matt Storch has facebooked it- JFood helped out with it... There is a new burger in town. I am not talking about Shake Shack Westport, I am talking about Match Restaurant, in South Norwalk.

The deal is every Thursday there is a Match burger... "Start with a patty of locally raised (Roxbury, CT) grass-fed beef. Throw in some bacon-cheddar sauce and sweet and sour onion jam. House it all on a caramelized onion brioche bun. And don't forget those fries. " (JFOOD) I know what you are thinking- that burger has a bun, well we have all tackled this problem before- either bring your own (and if you do remember the rules... do it yourself, don't give it to your server!) or eat it with a fork a knife! Matt has personally said that he is not going to mind a gluten free order coming to his kitchen for this burger. I am going to be honest- my mouth is watering as I write this post- what time does Match open?

For more details on the making of the Match Burger, check out JFood's writeup on CT Bites- he doesn't leave out a detail! It's great!!! http://www.ctbites.com/home/2011/7/24/the-making-of-the-match-restaurant-burger.html Kuddo's for all the work with the research and trials! I am so glad to see you are working with local farmers too!

A long long time ago...

It's been since I have been blogging. I am SO bad! But... since then, it's been so good! Best News: They are going to be continuing every Thursday through the Winter at Gilberties in Westort... and a little birdie told me that my favorite Gluten Free pastry girl- Peace Tree Desserts, might be there too... a girl could only hope!

First let's discuss Westport Farmers Market... This year:
Collyer Catering: Quinoa- EVERY week, a different type- can we say: lunch?
Raus Coffee: The Cold Roman, first of all, we all need a wake up call, or at least I do... it's the start of my day!
Sugar & Olives: Gluten Free cookies, and they melt in your mouth... a real cookie, not any of that fake sugar sh*t
There is another farm stand, and it's sad but I can't remember their name- so here is my description- they sell lamb, and sheep milk and cheese... there they also have feta pesto... you will not only love it, you will dive into it over and over and over again... a staple to any party
Arugala from any market you can't miss, but the microgreens from Two Guys From Woodbridge... those are something to talk about!
