Hey Lemonboy!

[Tippster]

Say Hello to my new friends...





Any suggestions for tonight's supper? I'm thinking Chicken Schnitzel w/glazed Cippolini Onions and some garlic-tossed green beans.

(Got the All-Clad copper core Pans for a steal yesterday and I'm dying to take them for a spin!)

[lemon boy]

You suck.

I'm also supremely jealous of your range.

Chicken? That makes little baby jesus cry.

Veal baby.

[Cruiser]

That right there is quality equipment!

[mnflyfish]

Damn! So what time are we all suppose to be there for dinner? Nice range! Makes mine look like one step up from a fire pit, wait it is.

you need to clean the wood work behind the radiator and if the door frames are nice wood, strip em.

oh...and nice cookware/range

[skibuminwyo]

Hmmmm. So.... I guess I'm a little out of the loop. There does not seem to be a touch screen... or a black box with a lid. I am teh suxor when it comes to cooking. Shiny stuff, though.

You will love the La Creuset sitting on the top there. I have a couple of the same color and they are my favorite of all my pots and pans. I cant even imagine how nice they would work on a good stovetop like that. My stovetop sucks and they still save my ass by keeping a nice even temperature. BTW my vote on first meal out.... take it nice and easy while figuring out your heat. How bout some chicken/veal piccata over a nice bed of garlic spinach. Ummmmm

It's clean - just not painted... there was a radiator cover there. Not to worry - in the next construction phase that whole wall goes away.

I'm surprised nobody said anything about the radiator's color....

LB: Thermidor is the best deal going right now in the high-end ranges (Viking/Therm/Wolf.) If you have an in with someone who is a licensed contractor you can get some incredible deals if they order it for you from a trades dealer.

I got the pans from some kid on Craig's List - still in the box & sealed, for $450 for the 7 piece set. I'm still stunned that the moron didn't even check the web for comps.

I think the peachy-pink goes perfect with the yellowy-green

[lemon boy]

Yeah, we have a fleet of them as well. Love cooking with them.

tip- I'll check in cause I do know a few contractors...hmmmm

[Blatant]

all-clad = sickness. Someone is doing well.

[Woodsy]

Sure,
Sara and I can come for dinner.

Thanks

You better hope whoever had their pans stolen doesn't check this website.

[grrrr]

Nice range - but I'd hate having no counter space to work from.


Someday I'll have a nice kitchen again

[bklyn]

so much potential...

[alias]

that picture reminds me of the saying "putting lipstick on a pig".

Do you plan a pretty major remodel - or just really dig stoves?

[Binky]

all clad with copper core = score!

I guess you missed the part where he said

Now shut your judgemental, non-reading ass down and shut up.

[Tippster]

Can this thread be used as evidence of a crime, councilor?

Yep, range (+ hood) first, will be incorporated in remodel whenever that happens.

Grrr -- counterspace is to the left of range and also behind me in this picture. As is this is a tiny galley kitchen like most 1920's colonials, at least around here.

Woodsy, Frau Woodsy, & Bklyn - come on down!

[TyWebb]

who gives a shit anyway Alias?

My espresso maker was more than 2 mortgage payments....I like esspresso

[alias]

an observation based on my tendency to move every 3-5 years.

Trying to get the value out of that stove could be a bit tough. Trying to sell the home but take the stove with you could work I guess.

I also like to remodel shit - so maybe he does have a major remodel going - if so it would be cool to see pics & ideas. Maybe get a thread going so we could watch the progress.

(ice - I read the part about moving a wall. One wall does not a remodel make)

also ice - go fuck yourself.

[alias]

edit
fuck it, not worth my time.

[Tippster]

Alias:

1. I'm not moving within at least the next 20 years so am in no rush
1.b I didn't buy the range as an investment, but as a tool.
2. My wife is an awards-winning remodeler
3. You have no idea what the rest of the house looks like, nor what appliances are expected in my hood... but again that's not why I bought it..

Would it help if I told you that the kitchen and basement are the last phases of a remodel that will, when finished, have doubled the value of our home?


Anyhoo -- just wanted to crow to LB... He understands. Now it's time for his ass to come out East and show me how it's done!

[alias]

awesome tipp - good for you. I obviously rushed to judgement. Sounds like you are going to have a sick pad.

[Tye 1on]

A 'galley style' kitchen...I'll bet that keeps ya thinkin a couple steps ahead I can only imagine the flurry of activity after all the prep is done and the pans get hot!

My vote is for prosciutto wrapped veal chops over a wild mushroom risotto, with them there garlic tossed green beans...and a Malbec.
