Yelping is Helping (Yelp Year in Review – 2021)

Yelp! It is a platform that we’ve used for years, but have never really talked about on the blog. Why? It has always been a bit taboo, I suppose. Yelp doesn’t like their users doubling up their reviews. They see it as a conflict of interest. They have some control issues. As a result, we’ve always said no to their annual invites to be Yelp Elite. We play it safe by avoiding be too far in Yelp. Still, we love to use it for the following reason.

Learn how to make a genuine, full of Italian flavour Supplì alla Romana

 

Even though rice is not necessarily considered Italian, this country has become one of the largest producers of rice in the world and definitely made it clear that they can make the most of a cup of this versatile staple. That is why many recipes with rice as the main ingredient can be found, risotto being on top of this long list. But when it comes to the iconic Rome appetizersupplì makes number one position. Rice, tomatoes, cheese, olive oil, onions… add an Italian chef working the ingredients and, in short, nothing can go wrong.

Le Cafe Eblouir (Gretna, LA)

Hungry & Fit are typically on the wrong side of the Mississippi River when it comes to the fun, cute places to hang out and eat. New Orleans and even Metairie have most of those spots, with a few exceptions in Algiers. Fortunately, earlier this year, we received a covid-related blessing in disguise. A local pastry chef, who had worked in hotels, decided to open up her own cafe instead of fighting to find a job in the recently unpredictable hospitality industry. Feast your eyes on the treats inside Le Cafe Eblouir!

Why Nutrition is Vital For Fitness

Many people think regular exercise is the crux of all fitness, but it isn’t the only dictator of physical prowess. There’s an increasing focus on nutrition throughout the health and fitness world, as nutritionists are only beginning to unravel the important benefits that different eating habits and ingredients can bring to the table. What people eat actually has more of an impact on overall health and fitness potential than exercise. It’s important for weight loss, most specific sustained fitness programs and attentiveness to many diseases and health conditions.

Mike’s Mighty Good Craft Ramen (Food Review)

On a recent trip to the grocery, Fit noticed this product on the shelf and told me that she’d love to see me “tear it apart” on our YouTube channel. I don’t know why she was so skeptical of the product. Sure, we’d never heard of it or seen it before, but why not give it a fair chance? Unfortunately, due to my ravenous appetite, one day, I just ate them on the spot. By them, I mean one Beef Flavor Ramen Soup and one Chicken Flavor Ramen Soup. I was too lazy to setup my camera and I’m glad I didn’t because it became a bit more complex than anticipated. Mike’s Mighty Good Craft Ramen. Was it worth it? Yes and no.

This is chicken, thumbnail is beef

Behind the Scenes – Our Projects

2020 has been a whirlwind of a year for all of us. Some were, unfortunately, hit much harder than others and we’ve all had to adapt to uncertainty. It has given many us a chance to spend less time with some, and more time with others. It has given all of us the chance to spend more time with ourselves. While that has been a curse for some, it has been a blessing for others. 2020 has provided some of us the chance to hit the reset button and finish old goals, start new projects, and lighten our load.
