< BACK TO Fresh Intelligence The New York Times Is All Up On That "Gay Wedding Gold Rush"It's the conservative nightmare—that gays from all over the country will begin flocking to California when gay marriages begin there in a few weeks, only to return to their home states full of demands for rights and privileges. (It's such a nightmare that the attorneys general of nine states went lamely begging to the California Supreme Court to ask the court to delay marriages until the November popular vote on a Constitutional amendment against gay marriage.) But where Johnny Law and good Christians see horror, the New York Times sees a delicious, food-filled trend! After all, who loves a good caterer more than the gays? And the New York Times' Dining Section would like to learn about it! From: [Redacted]Let's hope these newlyweds don't serve the cake featured in last week's Dining section, a recipe which accompanied a strange meditation on cakes by Alex Witchel. It was disgusting! The cake itself was foamy and spongy—"Was this made with seltzer?" asked one of my dessert-sharers. No. Just TEN EGGS. The frosting was more than a bit lardy! But to be fair, the cake settled and improved with a day of refrigeration, though it retained something of a hard, stale-Twinkie consistency though. So just don't serve it at your wedding, homos!
The short ribs at Tra Vigne in Napa are post-vow worthy and not too heavy. French Laundry would just be too cliche. Posted by: karion on June 4, 2008 1:52 PM Advertisement |
