Food Stuffs

So I ended up making the stuffed french toast last Sunday. I stuffed it with this

Blueberries with lime sugar and Brie.
Also I did another batch with Nutella and Red bananas. (thanks everyone for the suggestions), ((e:jenks) how does the hollowed out bread thing work?)
It turned out pretty decent. When it comes to breakfast food though I really like Eggs Benedict. I love syrup on my bacon, but pancakes really suck. But the masses were satisfied, I think the Lambrusco helped.
So two weeks ago Elizabeth and I went to Cleveland just for the hell of it. Neither of us had ever been there and mostly we wanted to just take a quick trip out of Buffalo.
Cleveland reminds me of Buffalo

We went to two restaurants there. Plus a winery on the way. These are some of my favorite things we ate there. It's from the restaurant Greenhouse Tavern.

We also went to this really awesome restaurant the night before ( sorry no pics) called Crop

Today we slept in and are making Vichyssoise and a Tomato Tart for dinner. I can't wait Im starving.

Yours looks like it would be very good.
Speaking of food... i assume you saw the No Reservations Rust Belt episode???
1. You went to Cleveland, not Pittsburgh.
2. You said, "Pancakes suck."
3. Syrup on Bacon.
But stuffed French toast is AWESOME.
(e:paul) the green stuff is mint chiffonade and lime zest.
But last week I had something new- FRESH corned beef hash. i.e. not from a can. sliced in the kichen right there. It was a whole different animal- and delicious.
The stuffed french toast was great. she cut of the ends and scooped a 'tunnel' through the whole thing, which was then stuffed with filling. then sliced the whole loaf and battered/cooked it.
