Bruno’s Restaurant & Pizza – Haddonfield, NJ
Pictured is Pasta Fagioli and Chicken Marsala. The highlight of the meal was the fresh bread basket (not pictured) which had a delcious variety of bread and slices of Tomato Pie. If went back to Bruno’s I would probably just get the Tomato Pie as it was good enough to skip the meal.

To have all of our new listeners get a taste of Small Bites with Glenn Gross and Derek Timm of Bluejeanfood.com, LIVE this Sunday, March 18th at 635pm on WildfireRadio.com we have another great show lineup for everyone. We welcome Hsiao-Ching Chou an award-winning food journalist, a cooking instructor, and communications consultant. She is a member of the James Beard Foundation cookbook committee and Les Dames d’Escoffier Int’l (LDEI). Chou has been a guest on local and national shows, including Public Radio’s The Splendid Table, the PBS documentary The Meaning of Food, and the Travel Channel‘s Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations. In her spare time, she teaches popular everyday Chinese home cooking classes at the Hot Stove Society. She also recently released a new book called “Chinese Soul Food” from Sasquatch Books. Chinese food is more popular than any other cuisine and yet it often intimidates North American home cooks. Chinese Soul Food draws cooks into the kitchen with recipes that include sizzling potstickers, stir-fries that are unbelievably easy to make, saucy braises, and soups that bring comfort with a sip. These are dishes that feed the belly and speak the universal language of “mmm!” You’ll find approachable recipes and plenty of tips for favorite home-style Chinese dishes, such as red-braised pork belly, dry-fried green beans, braised-beef noodle soup, green onion pancakes, garlic eggplant, and the author’s famous potstickers, which consistently sell out her cooking classes in Seattle. You will also find helpful tips and techniques, such as caring for and using a wok and how to cook rice properly, as well as a basic Chinese pantry list that also includes acceptable substitutions, making it even simpler for the busiest among us to cook their favorite Chinese dishes at home. Recipes are streamlined to minimize the fear factor of unfamiliar ingredients and techniques, and home cooks are gently guided toward becoming comfortable cooking satisfying Chinese meals. Any kitchen can be a Chinese kitchen!

Jim’s Lunch – Millville, NJ
This place is retro and in a good way. Very old school feel, decent food, and excellent service. The secret is in the sauce and that was true for both things I had there. Double cheeseburger with everything and Texas Tommy with everything. If in the area, I would definitely go back. Just be aware, they are only open between Columbus Day and Memorial Day so that the staff has the summer season off.

We are thrilled to welcome Ali Rosen Gourvitch author of “Bring It! Tried & True Recipes for Potluck and Casual Entertaining by Ali Rosen” from Running Press available for purchase on March 13.

Then we welcome Neha Khullar the author of “Palate Passport”. Neha Khullar is a foodie, coffee addict, sparkly shoe-wearer, and enthusiastic dinner party host. Prior to becoming a cookbook author, Neha Khullar worked on the corporate side of New York City. Fueled by her passion for food and cooking, she set out on a journey to explore culinary traditions around the world. After breaking bread in dozens of places, she learned that food brings people together and creates community regardless of religion, political views, or language; what tastes good can be shared with others. She has spent time with master chefs, street stall cooks, grandmothers, and food lovers all around the world. They have taught her about their favorite local foods and shared the history and stories behind them. Palate Passport is her personal culinary masterpiece created to share this journey with others. She intends to show readers that cooking is fun, it doesn’t have to be intimidating, and if made with love, even an imperfect dish will taste beautiful! Neha has spent three years creating this book in order to thoughtfully coordinate all of its components. The cover was inspired by many people and separate events. After following a particular artist for years, she asked him to create the cover art, loving his style of coloring outside of the lines–a style reminiscent of her story for creating this cookbook. The dominant colors of the cover were inspired by a garden that Neha visited in Marrakech, Morocco. And the name was inspired by a fellow traveler who crossed paths with Neha while also filling her passport with experiences. Every component of this book has a story like the one behind the cover art. Neha is the founder of FoodMoodz, LLC which is an online platform for foodies to share articles on the best eats, chef profiles, recipes, and food trends. Neha is also the founder of Global Foodie Citizen which is a community of foodies located all around the world! The vision for GFC is to offer an invite-only group of foodies who can connect to meet at exclusive restaurants and food experiences around the world.

Sugarpuddin’s – Clementon, NJ
If in the area, you should definitely stop by. The service here made the visit feel like you are a part of their family with free samples to try before ordering and a drink on the house while you wait for the food to get ready. This is what makes you remember a place and go back, and I will certainly stop by again. Pictured is full rack of Baby Back Ribs, pulled pork, french fries, baked beans, string beans, mac and cheese, and corn bread. It was all yummy.
Viet Pho – Deptford, NJ
What a great time here. They should be having their Grand Opening in about a week or two. The service was top notch and friendly, and the food here really compliments the Deptford Mall area with even more ethnic and food variety to choose from when visiting or shopping in and around South Jersey. I like how this area is now having a good mix of chain and independent restaurants again to appease all palates and needs. If you’re in the area and have a craving for Vietnamese, Viet Pho will certainly cure your need for a fix. Nhan Truong the owner of Viet Pho is no stranger to the restaurant industry as she previously owned Viet Bistro in the Cumberland Mall in Vineland, NJ that received many rave reviews until she sold the restaurant two years ago. Below are some pictures of the meal:
