Bi-Coastal Cook

Just checking out my inbound links (those linking to me), and just found this relatively new blog. The Bi-Coastal Cook has a lot of good recipes and several photos of 'em. Like me, Charles (the Bi-Coastal Cook in question) is a Marylander who spent a good chunk of his life in SoCal (he was in San Diego, which is gorgeous; I was in the Inland Empire, which is, um, er, only two hours from San Diego). So we both have a romance with food from both Cali and the Chesapeake. Some comments: Love the recipes for lumpia and the artichote frittata with gruyère, dude! But I gotta admit that asparagus is not my cup of tea (unless it's covered in hot, crispy tempura batter, yum!). And that knife! Sweeeeeet...
