Lobster is the ultimate for luxurious, romantic meal. And unlike many other indulgences, right now it’s quite politically correct to eat lobster. Because the economy has slowed so much, demand for lobster is down and lobster fisherman in the US are suffering terribly. Dining on lobster this New Year’s Eve would actually be a great way to help struggling small businessmen. How’s that for a rationalization.
And you’ve still got time, by the way.

Back in the day, a Lox Box was a pretty popular fundraising event in my neck of the woods. Usually for a youth group or sports league – the kids would take orders in the neighborhood and deliver a Sunday brunch box that included lox, bagels, cream cheese. Maybe a tomato and an onion. Maybe a Sunday Times. Maybe a few little tchatkes. Nothing in the box was particularly delicious – mostly packaged stuff from the supermarket. But it was a fun idea and certainly added a little something to the day on which it arrived. But I’m not talking about that kind of Lox Box right now.
TheLoxBox.com The World’s First Home Lox-Maker
I’m talking about a magical box that allows you to make your own smoked fish right in your kitchen. Thrill your family with gourmet lox. Amaze your friends. The LoxBox is the first and only home lox-maker. It’s foolproof, easy and economical. You can make delcious lox and other gourmet smoked fish for a fraction of the price you’d pay at the market or deli. At only $29.95 it will pay for itself in just a few uses. And it’s made to your own special taste. Lox from the LoxBox is both heart-healthy and anti-arthritic with high concentrations of anti-oxidant omega-3 fatty acids.
The LoxBox Home Lox Maker is also a terrific gift.

We used to have a couple of lovely caviar shops here in Chicago and slowly they’ve disappeared. We also had a Petrossian over at Bloomies for quite a long time – but it’s now a shadow of it’s former self. I’ve gone virtual with my caviar shopping over the last couple of years. And believe it or not, caviar is actually an excellent thing to shop for on-line. Especially with the fabulous choices available – like an incredible range of Russian, Iranian, American, & Specialty Caviar from GourmetFoodStore.com
Expect to find a larger selection of products from a wider array of places than you’d typically find at any single bricks and mortar caviar boutique. And prices that are at worst competitive and at best and often represent significant savings. I personally suspect that they do a much larger volume than any of my now defunct neighborhood options, because the freshness is pretty incredible.
