Bon Bons Chocolatier – A Delicious Morning

One of the many joys of being a food writer is getting sweet assignments. Today’s was one of the sweetest! Leandro and I went to Bon Bons Chocolatier in Huntington Village to see how they confect their delicious treats. It smells like heaven and was the perfect place to spend a rainy weekend morning. So cozy and alive with happy things!

Next birthday perhaps?

The details are for Edible Long Island/Manhattan/Brooklyn/East End combined winter issue which should hit the streets around November 15, but I had to share a couple of pictures with you.

A lesson in dipping!

Mary Alice Meinersman — co-owner with her daughter Susannah — of Bon Bons Chocolatier was kind enough to give my son a quick lesson in dipping chocolate.

Pretty!

It was a delicious morning and I am looking forward to writing the piece!

The takeaway!

Mango Mojitos With Ancho Chili Salt

It was another summer Friday in the neighborhood and that called for another festive cocktail. Riding high on the success of last session’s passionfruit mojitos, I decided to make mango mojitos.

Passionfruit Mojitos by the Pitcher or Glass

Occasionally on a Friday some of us neighbors bring out folding chairs and sit together in one front yard for a bit of happy hour while the kids go mental on someone else’s lawn. It’s pretty much BYO, but we do mix up a pitcher of experimental […]
KID IN THE KITCHEN: Tembleque (Tropical Coconut Pudding)

We spent the better part of last summer in Puerto Rico, and among the tasty things that my little guy fell in love with was tembleque, a jiggly (temblar means to tremble) dessert that falls somewhere between pudding and flan. I promised him we’d make it back in New York, and this weekend, for a […]
Sangría Tropical (and rainforest paradise pictures)

When the heat gets tropical, so should the drinks. On a recent trip to the mountains of Puerto Rico, I was inspired by a wonderfully cooling and exotic sangría I had up around and about El Yumque (Caribbean National Forest, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. Forest Service system) at Noelia’s, recommended to us […]
Salmorejo de jueyes (Land Crab Stew)

There are a number of land crab species skittering about Caribbean coastlines. Some are edible and the one we eat most here in Puerto Rico (although I am told they mostly are imported from Venezuela these days) is Cardisoma guanhumi which we call juey and — if you are English-speaking — you might call the […]
