The Byrd House: The Quintessential Neighborhood Bar
As a foodie, I am always looking for new experiences. My tastes are all over the map when it comes to food style, cost, or even atmosphere. I like high end and I like the local dive. I like dance clubs and I like sports bars. However, the one core thing they all need to have in common is great food and great service. I am sure that you are just like me.

Making a Spanish Omelet
Over the years, I have struggled to learn how to make a Spanish omelet. My latest attempt involved putting the egg in the potatoes and not the potatoes in the egg. I used olive oil in the past. But then I observe my family uses too much of that so I switched to vegetable oil instead. The vegetable oil was working well for me this time around since I managed to retain some consistency. The eggs have to be solidified at the bottom of the frying pan. Most omelet making involves putting the vegetables in with the eggs anyway. Spanish omelet is called tortilla de patatas.

Vegan Pasta
Hello my little lovelies! So today I am back with a recipe that is all made in one pot. That's right, one pot! This is a simple recipe with very few ingredients. This is perfect for when you have kids screaming they're hungry or if you have husband is complaining that he's starving and hasn't eaten anything all day. This recipe literally takes no more than 45 minutes to make mostly because of the lentils but it tastes absolutely delicious and you can put in whatever vegetables you want to put in here or you can just leave it as is.

All Tapas bars and restaurants in Spain and across the globe will have Jamón Serrano or Jamón Iberico on the menu but how many of us know the difference between the two of them? What we do know is that there is sometimes nothing nicer than a plate of this culinary symbol of Spanish culture with some Manchego cheese, a bowl of olives and a good glass of Rioja. There is nothing more tempting when walking past a deli, butchers or market in Spain and seeing the displays of Jamón hanging above the counters in vast quantities, showing not just how popular these dry cured sweet yet salty meats are in restaurants but also in the homes of the Spanish people. So what is the difference?

Hello Fresh
I have tried almost every kind of delivery service set to ship fresh ingredients to your house. Now I do not consider myself an experienced chef, nor would anyone who has eaten my food previously. I have always been someone who mixed ingredients and recipes to create my own concoctions. I also have never been a fan of planning a list of needed ingredients and going to fight the crowds at a grocery store to purchase them, only to forget a key ingredient in the recipe. But thankfully, with companies like Hello Fresh, the stress is taken away from you.
