Find. Eat. Drink.: Find, Eat, and Drink Like a Chef in Barcelona
Papabubble's handmade candies looks like droplets of Venetian glass. Drop in to watch them making the candy - it's like performance art.I had the most delicious conversation with daytime’s baddest bad boy, the one and only, The Modern Gentleman: Sean Kanan ( aka Deacon Sharpe of The Young and The Restless/ Bold and the Beautiful ) author, actor producer and self taught gourmet chef. I had a few very specific questions for him but somehow passionate conversation with this funny and captivating man just took over and before you know it two hours just flew away… Sean Kanan: Egg rolls, Barbecue spare ribs, Oreo Cookie Milkshake, KFC drumsticks dunked in mashed potatoes, gravy and slaw while watching a movie in bed. I love to ask this question because the answers are never what you would expect them to be – and it goes to prove my point every time: It is always back to the table and back to the bed!

As little kids walking to the fields with our grandpa, we would pass by dozens of cranberry bushes on the side of the road. We always stuffed our pockets with them and have cranberry fights along the way. As I matured I stopped using cranberries to hit my brother and started using them in muffins and in a blood orange sauce for the perfect side dish to the Thanksgiving dinner.

A preparation often considered traditional Italian, Spaghetti Puttanesca (defined as ‘spaghetti as a prostitute would make it’) was born in the 1950′s and is one of my favorite preparations… and not just because of the way it tastes. Discussing how it got its name is great fodder for our pre-shifts, and also has to be entertaining for a server to explain to a guest.

To set the stage for a productive discussion, open a difficult conversation with the Third Story, advise the authors of Difficult Conversations . The Third Story is one an impartial observer, such as a mediator, would tell; it’s a version of events both sides can agree on. “The key is learning to describe the gap—or difference—between your story and the other person’s story.
