Paying attention to Detail...Is it Stainless or What?


Hot or Cold not at the same time. =)

As any good cook or chef knows that it is paying attention to detail that enhances the food experience. I am not only looking at the presentation but food safety too. I am a proud card carrying member of the National Registry of Food Safety Professionals. The last kitchen I worked in I had interactions with the Health Department since it was my name on the wall, simply stated she said "Give this woman a raise!". Okay, I'll get off my milk crate now.


Back to the topic of discussion. With my wine tasting picnic cuisine it is not only important that the food be at the right temperature when eaten for flavor but also safety too.


I use the cyma hot/cold insulated zipper tote that will keep food at the desired temperature for up to three hours. No ice involved! What an invention I'd say.


Of course too when it comes to detail, we want this to look sophisticated too. That is why I'll be using the flatware pictured above. Is it stainless or not? You decide....

The end is the beginning...Dessert..


This is the end to a new beginning. In the foreground is my multi berry treat with a sauce of Olallieberry and curacao reduction topped off with fresh whip cream. In the background of the pictue is my mesquite smoked turkey crossiant sandwich ready to go on the road.
This is just the beginning of my wine tasting picnic cuisine. More to come...
