Summer Market Platter | It’s Okay to Keep it Simple

If I had a second sub header for the RGB blog, it would probably be: How to make really complicated food using over ten ingredients, three burners, two people and a very long time. This doesn’t work very well when you’re in the middle of a remodel.

Winter Salad with Blood Orange and California Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette | Late-Afternoon Glow at the RGB

While traveling through the South of France, we befriended an artist who said she painted “in the evenings because that’s when the light is best.” Later that week, while driving around the countryside, we found ourselves surrounded by that late afternoon glow… and realized she was right.

With Assistance from Britta

How did 2009 treat ya? For the most part, we were glad to kick 2009 to the curb at the stroke of midnight, but we do acknowledge that a lot of good things happened, too. Among them, Britta. Yup, a dog changed our lives. This post is dedicated to Britta, because without her, we wouldn’t [...]

New Year’s Eve Contribution

We’re headed to Riverside tonight for a New Year’s Eve gathering: our contribution will be a winter salad with bleu cheese dressing. We’re choosing a blend of mixed greens with apples because that’s what’s growing out back, along with asiago, dried cranberries and walnuts, because we have them in the kitchen.

Free Vitamin C | Autumn Citrus Salad

Rutabegorz in Tustin has this healthy eating thing down. True to their promise, their food is pretty good, too. And, they’re located right in the heart of Old Town. If they didn’t serve dinner, we’d probably ask to sublease some dinner space for our restaurant.
