Hardy Party Review: August 2008
http://hardypartyreview.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
A blog about food. Wednesday, August 13, 2008. Heirloom tomatoes are in and they are spectacular! Here's our "haul" from our recent visit to the Baltimore Farmer's Market. These beauties need nothing more than a couple of slices and a plate. Friday, August 8, 2008. Chinese Perfection: Grace Garden. Ladies and Gentleman, we have hit the motherload! Blog for information on what to order. Highly recommended. My only regret is that we didn't bring more people here so we could try more dishes. We carried on e...

Hardy Party Review: Cacao: My love affair with Chocolate continues
http://hardypartyreview.blogspot.com/2009/05/cacao-my-love-affair-with-chocolate.html
A blog about food. Thursday, May 28, 2009. Cacao: My love affair with Chocolate continues. Hand crafted premium chocolates, pastries and more (including those addictive European Macaroons). What's not to love? If you're a choco-phile, like myself, there is nothing better than a simple espresso laced dark chocolate truffle, rolled in cocao powder, and because Cacao makes these in small batches by hand, you won't find any fresher. They use 100% cocao butter for a truly rich experience. Bethesda, MD 20814.

Hardy Party Review: Buzz Buzz Buzz
http://hardypartyreview.blogspot.com/2009/03/buzz-buzz-buzz.html
A blog about food. Monday, March 2, 2009. Here's the latest buzz that's got me licking my chops in anticipation:. Crofton is set to experience it's first Afghan Kabob restaurant with the impending opening of Awe Shack. A play on the word Aushuck, the delicious handmade Afghani ravioli. Slated to open doors in early March, we've done a couple of drive by's and they are very close! It looks like Jose Andres. We'll have to wait a while for the answer, he's only ordered the plans for the restaurant and does ...

Hardy Party Review: June 2008
http://hardypartyreview.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
A blog about food. Tuesday, June 24, 2008. Koreana: Little Mexico's hidden gem. After reading a Yelp. The decor is funky, bordering on weird. You enter into a large empty room. It took us a moment to realize that we needed to keep going to actually find the dining room. You can tell that this used to be a Mexican establishment, but now it looks something akin to a Korean Hacienda. Feel free to form a mental picture of that before reading on. Tuesday, June 3, 2008. Has come to Annapolis! Criteria for vend...

Hardy Party Review: February 2009
http://hardypartyreview.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
A blog about food. Saturday, February 7, 2009. We've been watching with some anticipation for the opening of Punk's at the newly expanded Annapolis Mall, as we are always happy to have another lunch spot at our disposal. This past Wednedsay, Punk's opened quietly. I had anticipated a simple burger/ sandwich shop with the usual line up of BBQ "this and that". To my surprise and delight, Punk's is so much more. Steve and I split sandwiches. We had the Sliced Flat Iron Steak Sandwich with oven roasted C...

Hardy Party Review: September 2008
http://hardypartyreview.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
A blog about food. Tuesday, September 23, 2008. Ruan Thai: The Ugly Duckling. At the end of the movie Shallow Hal, Jack Black realizes that Gwyneth Paltrow may be ugly and fat on the outside but once he sees past all of that, he finds her inner beauty. Such is Ruan Thai. From the outside, you may be tempted to keep on driving. but you would be missing a real treat if you did. We were fighting over the last morsels on the plate. Steven ordered the Panang curry Shrimp. A luscious dish and as good a pan...

Hardy Party Review: The Awe Shack: Awe-shome, Dude!
http://hardypartyreview.blogspot.com/2009/03/awe-shack-awe-shome-dude.html
A blog about food. Wednesday, March 18, 2009. The Awe Shack: Awe-shome, Dude! Oh Joy, Oh Bliss, Oh Happy Day! The Awe Shack, an Afghani Kabob restaurant has opened. If you live in Crofton, you should be dancing a little happy dance of joy right now. We stopped in this past Saturday, their first night, but the kitchen was having some difficulty, so we decided to come back Monday night. Sure glad we did! The show stoppers, though, are the kabobs themselves. We had the chicken kabobs. Big, meaty, ju...2510 ...

Hardy Party Review: March 2008
http://hardypartyreview.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
A blog about food. Thursday, March 20, 2008. There’s great stuff going on in the Chocolate world these days. Artisan chocolate companies are popping up all over the country like mushrooms in spring. The first bar has only two ingredients, chocolate and sugar; the second, chocolate sugar and cacao butter. As quoted in a recent article in the St. Louis Post Dispatch “If you have to add vanilla, the quality of the cacao you're using isn't good enough to begin with.". Mai Thai: Carlos and Steve WERE Impressed.
