I’ve never been sure just what toad in the hole was, so made a point of reading a recent post about it in the New York Times Diner’s Journal blog.

Za Cracks Farm Fresh Eggs
When Za Restaurant in Pennington first opened in 2006, I was glad to see several egg dishes on their lunch menu.

The bride’s brother and sister-in-law (she is a pastry chef who will make the wedding cake) hosted it at Alice’s Tea Cup on the upper east side, one of three branches. First there was a champagne toast and then the … Continue reading
