Chadstone To Frankston Station

January 26, 2011 * Birthplace of the bou * c / Reus, 27 tel 962 055 656 - 651 923 957

We go to the district La Saidia, the district Marxalenes to find a small restaurant that is devoted to cooking meat bull. No problems and we parked at the door. It has two separate, into a bar area (with TV provided) to which is already in the small bar he owns, a striking number of trays of sandwiches and tapas. The other space is allocated to the restaurant.
We have the restaurant on a Wednesday again we will be alone, although there is a promotion Atrapalo discount on the price chart.
leave us letters and we propose that depending on the dishes, we recommend the wine that best behave with them. Accepted. Read detenidamente la carta pero está claro que queremos carne y  vino de toro.
Una vez que le hemos cantado los platos y decirnos que hemos elegido bien, nos propone un vino de Toro; Marqués de Olivara del 2006, 100% tinta de Toro. Vino de hermoso color que al primer ataque nos perfuma deliciosamente con moras y frutos rojos.
Pedimos que nos lo decanten para que se apacigüe. Una vez decantando (la temperatura es excelente), nos encontramos un vino rotundo pero elegante, agradable, con un pase largo. Nos gusta mucho y encaja perfectamente con el plato principal.
Como entrantes hemos pedido: anchoas que vienen sobre unas rebanadas of crusty bread with a little grated tomato and olive oil. The anchovies are a bit lumpy but well salted. Another incoming
eggs are broken in the style of the home of the trawler. Quail eggs for baking potatoes that have been soaked in egg yolk emulsion and a few sheets of good ham. Devour us. It also brought us a plate with slices of toasted bread with olive oil and paprika. The third entrant is a bull beef carpaccio: very thin layers of meat, tasty, with a few drops of "mango chutney? and a good shower of grated Parmesan cheese. The sweet touch of chutney makes it an excellent carpaccio of bull. Very rich. For testing, we asked a lollipop foie: next batter nuts and garnished with a citrus reduction with PX. The edible toy makes us sigh with great entertainment.
main course why not ask your specialty? an oxtail stew. Soft and tender pieces of oxtail resting on a bed of potato chips into very thin slices that have been soaked tail sauce. Result? Awesome!
For dessert we suggest a brownie with ice cream orange how refuse? A brownie with a big ice cream beret as smooth and sponge. Delicious. With him we have served two shots of PX to accompany it. We like the details.
Quesoy
ends the dinner with his accustomed ristreto Karoleta hurry while his glass of wine from Toro. Nice dinner with the bull as a protagonist.

Collectors Plates To Sell

January 19, 2011 * The Plaza * Plaza Freedom No 17 Torrente (Valencia) 961 080 490


We we hike west of Valencia, the town of Torrent, and find this downtown restaurant of the population. After nearly getting lost Karoleta a bad indication, we arrived without any problems.
find an enlightened local but with the door locked. We asked in the bar area that has the same local name and then we open the restaurant. We are alone and places us in a good restaurant to enjoy this dinner elmiercolestoca.
We offer a snack or go to the letter directly, after reading the short wine list are no entries surprised by what we wonder about the possibility of a suggestion out of letter but told us that at this time have nothing advisable so we decided on a classic, well-known wine, Les Alcusses, which takes its name from famous Iberian settlement of the same name in the municipality of Moixent. It is recognizable by the Iberians signs, still untranslated, as part of the label. Inside the bottle, despite being the second wine Celler del Roure we have a delicious wine, composed, always polite and unique taste. We like a lot and also next to a perfect temperature and with a pleasant surprise asked to prove who we serve, directly Karoleta, if you want to do it, pleasantly surprising because so far were they going to Quesoy or asked who was going to try. Will things change? The bottle is equipped with a small device that oxygenates the wine and serve it more open, highlighting the features. Fantastic.
We decided to ask for the letter, recommended that despite what we say it's the tasting menu because they have caught our attention several dishes on the menu. Next time. We see that the tasting menu is suggestive and have a very apeticibles pairing dinners.
As starters, anchovies, good size and texture but perhaps desalted over (you know what Karoleta likes both anchovies and order, also has emerged Quesoy your palate.'re Rich very rich but would be fabulous with a little salting), an impressive sautéed mushrooms, scallops and foie gras escalope: awesome ... almost the best dish of the dinner despite its simplicity, is what are the good raw materials and the care to cook. As the last entrant, we ask a micuit with rose petal jam and violet jelly. Say What? the micuit was really good, but accompanied mainly by violet jelly (which is superb) became an impressive bite. We Maldon salt (I found a bit dull) and we already elevated level. We devoured the plate, like all previous.
main course we chose a good beef tenderloin Lugo comes neatly pressed, so little done and accompanied by a delicate fried spinach leaves and two artichokes stuffed with spinach and ham. Good dish to share if you have the same taste for the meat section, too bad that half had Quesoy Steak fat and nerves appeared not to be expected. Half Karoleta was impeccable.
For dessert we advise us: a pastry filled with nougat ice cream and bathed in hot black chocolate. There are no words. Just fabulous. Quesoy
ends the dinner with his accustomed ristreto while sipping a good digestive Karoleta: a shot in a cold glass of Macallan, which is part of the wonderful supply of liquor that offers this facility. These two end points and invite us. Good detail.

Cholesterol Level 10.8

January 12, 2011 * Moma * In Valencia c / correct all n º 16 Tel 963 926 462

We go to the district of Ciutat Vella, the neighborhood of La Seu, to find this location. Due to the works that are in this district we lose one more night and we round and round. But in the end, we ask him after the national police patrolling by the Carmen and neighbors who were drinking and smoking on the terrace of the Restaurant 8 ½ Plaza next to the round, and give us the right signals. Late, but we arrived.
There are a few tables occupied but we offered to sit in any of the free. We Groupalia coupon, so that dinner comes at a good price. Is to choose the letter all the dishes we want to reach a price, which we have previously discounted 50%, excluding wine and dessert will separate.
read the wine list and we decided on a Ribera del Duero: Aladis 2007. But no body came creamy, soft, easy to drink and will combine well with some of the dishes.
Not so with others.

Let's go to dinner. As incoming ask a foie with reduced mandarins, apples and pears. A micuit delicious, flavorful, with a good pepper. Is covered with a crisp not detect what it is. At the end asked. Parsnip! Really fantastic.
The dish us devoured every last crumb of parsnips, just as occurs with the reduction of pear, citrus and wine and of course apple balls in syrup that constitye another surprise, since wise to quesoy apricot and grape karoleta, we will laugh came when we told the truth. ;-)
Another entrant is a wan-ton stuffed with mushrooms and shrimp. Delicate dish tasty, which generates a high congtraste with the other entrants. We love despite what stands out is the flavor of the mushrooms that we do not fully identify, being probably a mix and also because it was the incoming reserve, unable to serve the prawns in tempura we had chosen from the cargta , will again be
provolone cheese with tomato. A delicious hot provolone with a little salad. Too bad that this dish was cold while we tasted, but the picture is the picture and before the picture can not eat, too bad.
main course ask for a strong Argentine steak cut accompanied by two sauces: Chimichurri and Creole (is that name? herein mmm ...). This latter surprising: raw vegetables cut into tiny pieces with a sweet and sour sauce. Perfect. The chimichurri as always, superb.
and move on to steak, plain little beef in appearance but once we started to carve a piece that is soft, creamy, well-pressed (to our point), with salt flakes and very, very tasty.
Throughout dinner we served Eduard kindly go to the kitchen to ask all the questions and issues that appear to us. Always smiling and fun to remove our dishes perfectly sliced.
For dessert ask for a brownie with vanilla ice cream. Rich rich and that defeats us, especially withdrawing Karoleta dead after three tablespoons.
Quesoy ends the dinner with his accustomed Karoleta ristreto and accompanying with a cowherd of Jack Daniels, both detail of the house. Nice touch to complete a delicious meal.

Anybody Ever Got Their Arms Waxed?

Gnome>>> Installing Ubuntu from PPA Wingpanel



Wingpanel is an expression of minimalism taken to (or) panel (s) of Ubuntu. Ie a top panel to Ubuntu, but no longer occupies the place that needs strict . It is worth mentioning that this panel was created by the Elementary team.
Nothing better to introduce this new option for a video about it:



been interested if the new panel to install it just add the PPA repository:
sudo apt-add-ppa repository: ripps818/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wingpanel
To start, we must press Alt + F2 and type " wingpanel ."
Note: Wingpanel only works on Ubuntu 10.10 .
If we always use it, we just delete and add GNOME panel Wingpanel programs at startup.
This was my desk:


Desktop ultra-minimalist

Tip: Make the GNOME panel in a panel Wingpanel type easily.
  1. We remove the top menu on the left and all the applets we use.
  2. Click the right mouse button on the panel. Expand Uncheck and mark Auto Hide. Then drag the panel to where you want to leave.
  3. Finally, we make the panel not hidden, it appears that floats above the title bar our applications. Gconf-editor started and we will apps> panel > toplevels and choose the top panel with the name you have (mine is in top_panel_screen0 , but I've seen may have another name) . At the option hide_delay we changed the value 2147483647 which is the maximum supported. Means that it takes about 600 hours in hiding the panel.
This was mine:


is half naked, I need to assemble a conky, it's about time.

change if they repent, they can always open a terminal and type:
gconftool-2 - recursive-unset / apps / panel
