This was a dessert feature we had last night at Sambuca and it may be the most delicious and comforting dessert I can remember ever eating in my life. (except for that cracked out delicious Apple Pie I freaked out over: http://gimmeyummy.wordpress.com/2009/01/08/holy-crap-best-pie-ever/ )
This Heavenly Blackberry Cobbler was made with local organic blackberries, pistachios and almond biscotti.
It was sweet, tart, crispy, crunchy, buttery and decadent in every way that I needed it to be.
Perfect with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream!
Unfortunately I do not have the recipe but I am going to get it ASAP.
BELIEVE THAT!

Taco Porn.

I wish I could live on tacos alone. I adore authentic tacos so very much and I wish I could promise forever to them. My complete inability to make this a feasible reality stems from my intense love for so many different types of food. I just couldn’t commit to tacos. I’d WANT to! I’d really really make the effort. But in the end, tacos wouldn’t be enough to satiate my lust for food. I would slip, and end up cheating on tacos with sushi or green curry. It would get messy. Tacos would feel betrayed, and I’d feel like a big jerkface. Trust me.
Now let’s look at some recently ravished tacos!

Let’s begin with the always delightful fish tacos from Mas Tacos!
Jesus they were tasty…and always are…

Okay! Next!
These are the lunch fish tacos from Sambuca Restaurant Nashville

These puppies are another huge WIN in my book for local taco success. These fish tacos are gigantic and contain some of the most satisfying mixtures of textures I have ever experienced in a taco. Super crunchy fried tilapia with creamy avocado, gooey cheese, firm jasmine rice, black beans and crisp cabbage!

Give me tacos or give me death!
