  I read your blog, actually - I followed a link I think from the chowhound boards. I believe it was the post about fiddleheads.
  
  Just started a blog of my own the other day. It's not foodcentric but it's Jennycentric and I do like food, so I imagine an ode to goat cheese will appear shortly. Anyway, I linked to your blog from mine.

"Carne asada fries are a border creation in San Diego for drunk college students I imagine. Basically, take a full plate of fries, put on a heaping pile of carne asada (thin marinated steak chopped up), then add cheese, guacamole, sour cream, cheese, hot sauce, and cheese."

    another SoCal invention I've yet to see out here is a "Chili-Size" (open face burger smothered in chili). it's amazing.

      I was born and raised in L.A., and the closest thing I remember is Chili Cheese Fries (a la Tommy's).
      
      I guess someone needs to open a Cali-style burger joint around here. I have a hard time believing that people wouldn't flip for In-N-Out burgers, for example...

        I want Islands outside of the west coast sooo bad! everytime I fly to visit the 'rents I go like once a day.
        
        I was introduced to the chili-size at Johnny's Pastrami (next to Tito's Tacos in Culver City) but have seen it at a few other similar places.
        
        In-N-Out would do amazing anywhere, everyone i know that has tried it falls in love.

What do you put on your PB&J?
I started trying out new jellys. I have a black raspberry jelly which is really good. I grew up on grape jelly and converted to strawberry jelly, I like both though.
I stick to the original stuff, no bananas for me. I like fluff, but I feel like im eating creamy suger.

  I, too, grew up on grape (seeping through soft white bread - so nasty and delicious) but switched to strawberry. I'm a fan of apple butter and peanut butter; the spice of the apple butter really complements the peanut butter well. I'd also recommend experimenting with new nut butters, since they're so readily available at grocery stores now. Orange marmelade and almond butter maybe?

2) Anchovies: Good on pizza, good on caeasar salads, good on anything, good-for-nothing?

  1) Sandwiches - hard to say. I'm pretty easy to please in that department - a little fresh mozz, some really red tomatoes, a few leaves of basil and some balsamic on not-too-crunchy baguette and I'm all set. Although I'm really curious to try the new sandwich place in Inman...
  
  2) Not good on pizza. No. Maybe. I don't know. They could be, but I don't like seafood or chicken paired with tomato sauce, so I'll probably never know. Good on crackers? Duh, everything's good on a cracker.
  
  3) Mmmm prosciutto.

  1) Dave's Fresh Pasta in Davis Square... unbelievably fresh, and there are tons of gourmet toppings.
  
  2) Anchovies are fine, as long as I don't have to see them. The little hairs freak me out ;)
  
  3) I want to be able to see through my prosciutto!
