Nice to see so many faithful Americans deciding what people in other countries should and should not be doing with their own damn furniture. What would design around the world be without you?

I think it's a nice piece that puts an interesting cultural stamp on something that was pretty boring and ugly before. Good job! If nothing else you've made the MCM freaks and wood purists have a collective aneurysm.

What? All that shelf space yet almost no books? What's the point of having those amazing shelves if half of them are empty? It honestly doesn't look like anyone lives there, especially with the sparse kitchen, more empty shelves, and few cooking tools. I don't get this at all. There's no art, no warmth to this place.

I don't blame you for wanting to get rid of it. I couldn't look at something like that every day. A full redo seems like the only option, IMO, as anything else just won't look as nice.

Just made this and wow, amazing flavor. My sauce was darker than the picture as well, but I can't complain about the taste. Definitely a recipe I would serve to others to impress.

This really, really beautiful. I covet those zinc countertops.

Definitely panna cotta. Can't ever go wrong there!

I don't often buy cook books these days, but I may have to make an exception for this! I too am obsessed with panna cotta, so any new twists on the idea are more than welcome.

The first time I made this it turned out edible but nothing I was excited about. Somehow the flavors just didn't come together. However, since I'd been missing a few of the ingredients (sun-dried tomatoes and the red pepper) I figured I'd give it another try.

This time I made sure to add red pepper flakes, subbed drained diced tomatoes for the sun-dried ones, used Chinese Five-Spice powder instead of the ginger, skipped the lemon zest and just put in the lemon juice at the beginning rather than at the end of the recipe, and tossed in a kaffir lime leaf. It turned out absolutely amazing! The flavors just came together this time. Definitely going to make it again.

@rmbnn, several users have already pointed out you are wrong about the "an vs a" issue, but you are also being ridiculously old-fashioned about "rear vs raise". Raising children is perfectly acceptable American English.

Also, you've invoked Skitt's Law by making your own grammar mistake. That semicolon doesn't belong in your first sentence.

Red snapper is no longer a sustainable choice. Try yellowtail snapper instead!
