The Year In Review – July 2007
We’ll be looking back at the year in Foobooz. Today we take a look back at July 2007.
Dish of July
Gorgonzola and fig flat bread at Chick’s Cafe & Wine Bar.
The Gorgonzola and fig flat bread was the star of the table. You just can’t beat the classic pairing of fig and Gorgonzola cheese. Again, the portions were substantial, and thank goodness, because we wanted all of it.
