Strange Place for Inspiration



So it's mid January, a full month into winter. Yet in Fire Works, the fire's always burning, July or January we keep it hot! I was looking for inspiration on the interweb this afternoon and was reading reviews of new restaurants in New York, L.A., San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. There are A LOT of new restaurants opening all over the place! I didn't realize that there are even multi-national firms who focus their investments solely in lower employment markets such as Oakland where they heavily (in the millions) fund start up restaurant groups. There's your TARP tax funds at work! But I digress. I read an amazing recipe for a salad using caramelized leeks, ricotta salata, and chick peas and thought to myself, tweak this a bit and it could be an awesome pizza. Soooooooo, next Monday and Tuesday we are going to test out a new special called "Sprung a Leek" using caramelized leeks, ricotta salata (no house blend) sun dried tomato pesto, lamb sausage and lemon peppercorn oil tossed baby arugala after the pizza comes out of the oven. This should be a pizza that even your new year's resolutions will praise you for.
