  • There are people who dismiss dandelions and cattails as common weeds. Tama Matsuoka Wong sees them as fine cuisine. She is a forager, and she hunts for edible plants in the woods. It isn’t just a hobby. Wong, a former corporate lawyer, supplies some of New York City’s top restaurants-including Daniel, Gramercy Tavern and Cosme-with weeds they use to create delicious dishes. Come along as we go foraging and on a delivery run with Wong.

    Sadly, Cosme keeps being denied a Michelin Star. The guide is inherently flawed, but the failure to recognize a restaurant of this caliber is particularly egregious. Many people believe Cosme has a Michelin Star for the simple fact that it should.

    Damn! Harvard Law school! I was wondering how she has no real background in food yet has such an outreach. Just having the name 'Harvard University' on an email or resume must have such a massive effect on how someone sees you, even without any real relevance to the topic.

    • @MiniM69
      @MiniM69 5 лет назад

      Johnny25k there was a story in the Post, I believe, about the value of a Harvard education, saying that it’s essentially better to go to Harvard than be smart. If you’re a graduate of Harvard, people would assume you were preternaturally intelligent and regard you as such. Also, you wouldn’t have Harvard University on your résumé- technically that’s the umbrella name of all their schools. You’d write Harvard Law School or Harvard College (if you went to the undergraduate institution).

    Slowly my backyard became that. Out of neglect over the summer time the plants flower and dried in the sun. After that just gather go outside before the monsoon starts and smash the smash them all down into the ground. You will be surprised how far the sides are scattered away. If you think that is it you will also find after the spring rains there are ever more plants growing.
