A Julian Serrano restaurant without an extreme degree of attention to detail? Maybe in a parallel universe, but not in this one.
I’ll be honest: On my first attempt to dine at El Dorado Cantina, I turned around and left.
It’s Hatch green chile season! In case that doesn’t ring a bell for you: Hatch chiles are from New Mexico and are known for their exceptional flavor.
I’ll freely admit that, not having spent time in Buffalo, N.Y., I’ve never had Buffalo wings at the original Anchor Bar, which reportedly is where they were created.
Real Asian noodles — to which those crispy fried things dumped out of a can bear no comparison — are gratifyingly easy to find in Southern Nevada these days, from noodle houses to ramen places and Asian restaurants of all description.
Taste of the Town reader Cindi Maciolek asked a few weeks back for a source for Cajun potato salad similar to what she used to find at the deli counter at Albertsons or a recipe for it. Regular reader Ann Brown offered this recipe.
My, how suburban-mall restaurants have changed over the years.
Edge Steakhouse, which opened July 28, is an offshoot of the original that opened in Park City, Utah, in December 2012.

Piantidosi, who’s looking for them.
Dougie J’s Cafe is named after co-owner Suny Chabrow’s son, Spc. Douglas J. Green, killed in action in Afghanistan, and the restaurant is a sort of tribute to members of the military.
Regular readers know I often say one of the secrets to restaurant longevity is to, yes, offer the time-tested dishes that your customers have come to expect, but also to add newer selections to keep things fresh.
Restaurant tips come to me in all sorts of ways. In the case of the Southwest Diner in Boulder City, it was through an item in my Taste of the Town column, which runs Wednesdays.
