No need to travel for HP Sauce

Today’s bit of trivia: In case you didn’t know, the HP in HP Sauce stands for Britain’s Houses of Parliament (which explains the illustration on the bottle’s label). More to the point: In response to a query from Terri Hohl, readers say it’s readily available in Las Vegas.

Raku

You might think crispy fried shrimp and asparagus crispy tempura, on the same menu at the same restaurant, would be much the same. You might think it’s impossible (or at least improbable) that tofu could be lightly crispy on the outside and almost creamy (and most definitely not rubbery) on the inside.
