It was just such a tease to only be there for 48 hours. We also loved your recommendation of Jasper White’s Summer Shack in Dedham. Had delicious whole belly fried clams and luscious Cotuit oysters on the half shell there.

Glad that Theo doesn’t slow you down; maybe he will become the youngest gourmet ever!

I guess it depends how flavorful your parsnips and turnips are. You could also add fresh celery or lovage leaves, or cooked celeriac root to the puree for that celery-flavor. I bet caraway seed would also be nice with this. Or a little curry?

Looks like Peter Chang is now expanding into my hometown of Richmond. Near Wal-Mart. Interesting, given the enthusiasm for the chain within China. Short Pump is pure suburban sprawl but urbanized live-work-shop-dine development to make it more palatable. They even have an REI store there now. But still it pulls folks away from less prosperous but more worthy downtown Richmond.

It used to be much better than it is now.
