  • Super Bowl Wing Recipes From a Top Chef!

    This is a guest post from Savory Bites.

    This post is going to be short and sweet. Honestly, I could care less for football. All I care about are the WINGS!! I don’t even know how to play the damn game. Back in high school, my lacrosse coach would dedicate a day to tag football. All I did was run in one direct to catch the ball. Couldn’t understand downs for the life of me. I’ve given up on learning.

    WINGS. WINGS GALORE!!! If I had a deep fryer, I’d totally try these out. Maybe I’ll attempt them in my saute pan. In any case, the following recipes are from Chef Floyd Cardoz winner of Bravo’s Top Chef Masters and Executive Chef and Partner of North End Grill in Battery Park.  For anyone familiar with the restaurant scene in NYC, Chef Cardoz used to also head up Tabla with Danny Meyer. Legit resume.

    • About Me: Who am I? My name is Jessie and I’m a New Jersey native. I’m an undergrad business student at New York University, but like many people, I share a passion for food. After all, who doesn’t like to eat? For me, food is a sort of therapy and one of my favorite forms of socializing. I don’t consider myself well versed in the food world; I started cooking about a year ago and have had many baking disasters (probably due to my 25 year old oven). I wish I could call myself a food critic, but I lack the writing skills that captivate tastebuds. You’ll find that my early posts are devoid of any details helpful to anyone seeking a critical restaurant review. I’ve improved in my recent posts as well as added more and better pictures, but I still have a long way to go before I become even remotely close to a food critic. What do I like to eat! (?) I love to eat almost everything, so let’s talk about what I don’t like to eat. Well to start
