| Remembering Chef Miguel Ravago |
Hi everyone. It is with a heavy heart that we share news of the passing of Miguel Ravago, the longtime chef and co-founder of Fonda San Miguel in Austin. Miguel was an incredibly kind soul and such a talent in the kitchen. He was also a friend to Goodtaste with Tanji, agreeing to appear in one of our very first TV episodes just last year. A celebration of his life will be held at Fonda San Miguel on July 2 at 5:30p. We hope to see you there. |

The forecast for this week and your Fourth of July -- plenty of CHILL! Find a comfy spot in the shade and settle in. We tapped our Top 3 'poolside sippers' of the moment, which includes the El Diablo [above], a sinister spin on the classic Moscow Mule using aged reposado tequila, ginger beer and a certain black currant liqueur.

| Fiery Shrimp Diablo Flatbread |
Our pension for eye-popping summer shareables continues with this spicy Shrimp Diablo Flatbread for hanging out on the porch or by the pool! The shrimp pieces are bathed in a mouthwatering marinade of olive oil, basil and jalapeño, then sautéed and sprinkled over a fire roasted tomato sauce. Nailed it! |
Ahh the sweet taste of victory! Eat up our annual ode to the good ol' U.S. of A! These mini blueberry & strawberry filled flag pies are a famous tradition from Tiny Pies in Austin--and pack BIG flavor. Just about an hour total for prep and cook time combined. Your fellow compatriots will surely indulge...God bless America! |
Experience sensory overload at the all-new Witte Museum in San Antonio! The latest installment of their Salud! Culinary Nights dinner series kicks off at 6:30p this Wednesday, June 28. Settle in for an evening of good conversation, coupled with sweet and savory flavors from local chefs. BTW, each course is paired with a pretty stellar summer wine... ;)
