...Taiwanese chef to plan out the meal. On this Saturday afternoon, the soup of the day resembled the hot and sour soup of Chinese take-outs. However, the broth itself was surprisingly thin and mild-flavored. Tofu, carrots, coriander and honey suckle flower floated in my spoon. Upon finishing the soup, Tony brought out plates with a mound of rice in the middle surrounded by the four vegetable dishes: steamed bok choy, Napa cabbage and mushrooms cooked in their own broth, tofu in a creamy tomato sauce and imitation meat with diced potatoes and carrots...
...Western-style supermarkets?and a Starbucks on nearly every corner, plus Tony Roma's and T.G.I. Friday's and Hard Rock Cafe. On this day, however, Dan walks to a sidewalk noodle stand on Diligent Study Road. This is his training meal: a 40? bowl of steaming pasta in broth, topped with slivers of beef. Chinese street food is more likely to repeat than the Los Angeles Lakers, but it suits the big man, as does the comfort of ritual, six hours before the game...

The scallops are parched and petrified by over-zealous heat, and the beans make a dubious accompaniment, sitting forlornly in a thin gingery broth. The other starter, however, is sensibly composed—the slick fatty warmth of grilled duck sausage and bruschetta slathered with pâté de foie gras, pointedly countered by tart pickled grapes ($10), each constituent equally prominent and clearly articulated...
...experiment was carried out using two types of chemical tests—Luria broth plus ampicillin (an antibiotic), and YEPD (yeast extract with peptone and dextrose)—and four petri dishes: one sample for each foot (for comparative purposes) and two control dishes. After one week’s incubation, the two sample dishes blossomed with colorful fungi—savory reds and yellows of yeasts, lovely whitish blobs of a penicillin species, green spots of trichoderma and delightful traces of aspergillus—but nothing out-of-the-ordinary for an outdoor statue. “These...
