We enjoyed their hospitality, marveled at their American-sized appliances, and generally had a wonderful time.

The menu was extensive, with both vegetarian and vegan items well-represented. Specialties included pastas, pizzas, gratins, gnocchi, crepes, and stir-fry. I ordered […]

So my electric stovetop and I are slowly learning to get along (thanks in part to some reader tips!), but the one area in which my skills still need much improvement is the field of rice cooking. I am having a hard time finding the right settings that will help me avoid making a big […]
