Sacramento, California

The capital of California is a gold mine of history—literally. Gold was first discovered in 1848, thirty miles east of Sacramento, making the early days rather lively as the town hosted miners who had hit it big. They were a boisterous bunch, spending their loot on gambling and dance halls. Today, Sacramento is still a hub of activity, shipping and processing fruits, vegetables, rice, wheat and dairy goods from Central Valley. It still maintains some of that old west vibe with its vintage buildings on the riverfront—home to over 100 restaurants. Fine restaurants can also be found sprinkling the rest of the city, offering American, Italian, Mexican, French and California cuisine.

Blue Cheese and Pear Tartlets

Reviewed on Oct. 10, 2008 by Lynne
Little Tast of Heaven! People concerned with the balance of blue cheese vs. pear should just taste before filling shells and adapt accordingly.

Homesteader Cornbread

Reviewed on Oct. 10, 2008 by angelclaw
This is a great sweet cornbread, very moist and easy to make and tastes a lot like those mixes you get only better. I substitute soy milk and flax "eggs" to make it vegan.

Turkish Rissoles

Reviewed on Oct. 9, 2008 by Jtms
I don't know what I did wrong, but it took closer to half an hour than 10 minutes to cook this. After I was done, it was rather plain. It was basically patties of meatloaf, with no "zing" to it.
