<p>But there is so much fun stuff going on this weekend that I simply had to write about it. I only wish we were well enough to go to some of the events! And the weather promises to be sunny and cool. Details on any of these events can be found at our online calendar, <a href="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/?page_id=410" target="_self">Food Events in Bucks County</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Vegetarian delight.</strong> What are you doing tonight? Check out the <a href="http://kindlecafe.com/blog/" target="_blank"><strong>Kindle Café&#8217;s</strong> </a>Supper Club.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Over the last fifteen or so years, we have been fortunate in Bucks County to enjoy an increasing number of authentic (not Chili&#8217;s) Mexican restaurants. We&#8217;ve decided to do a round-up of them, beginning with </em><a href="http://www.lossarapes.com/" target="_blank"><em><strong>Los Sarapes</strong> </em></a><em>, which is fitting, since they were the first really authentic Mexican restaurant in Bucks, way back in the &#8217;90&#8242;s. </em></p>
<p><em>I remember when they first opened. They had taken over a pizza joint in Chalfont, with half the menu being American food and half being Mexican, as if to hedge their bets (&#8220;A Mexican place in Chalfont??&#8221;). Having had great Mexican food in the southwestern U.S., I was thrilled and became a regular patron (there is five pounds on my body directly attributable to those years and my weekly visits to Los Sarapes). </em></p>
<p><em>Here is Emily&#8217;s review of her recent visit.</em></p>
<p><em>by guest blogger <a href="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/?page_id=2" target="_self">Emily Trostle</a></em></p>
<p>I do not like Mexican food. Actually, I should rephrase that: I dislike “Mexican” food according to my perception of it.<br />
 <br />
When I think of Mexican food, all I picture is bland, mushy beans, dried out, crunchy rice, and floppy, soggy flour tortillas. Unfortunately, I sometimes even associate it with Taco Bell. This barbaric and false representation of Mexican food is where I get my Mexican food ick-factor from.<br />
 <br />
But, I know that to be a good and credible food blogger, I cannot dismiss the food stylings of an entire nation.<br />
 <br />
After hours of watching <strong>Anthony Bourdain</strong> in <em>No Reservations</em> this weekend, I couldn’t help myself. I needed a food challenge, something new, something almost frightening. This is when I decided to leave my comfort zone and go to a Mexican restaurant.</p>
<p>Enter <strong><a href="http://www.lossarapes.com/" target="_blank">Los Sarapes</a></strong>. It’s a colorful, welcoming Mexican restaurant where people go for good food and lots of margaritas. Our server ends up being a fellow that I became acquaintances with during my 3rd shift stint at Wawa during my senior year of college. Seeing a familiar face put me a little more at ease and gave me more confidence about the food adventure to ensue.<br />
 <br />
We quickly ordered beer (<strong>Dos Equis Amber</strong>). Browsing the menu, I noticed that all the items that usually turn me off to Mexican (beans and rice, beans and rice, beans and rice) were certainly there, but they’re served with real meat, fresh vegetables and authentic sauces. While I had already checked out the menu online and had picked out my dinner decision (Pablano Mole!), we decided to go big when we found out the special of the day was a whole <strong>Red Snapper</strong> fried and then stuffed with crab, shrimp, cuddle fish, oysters, scallops, octopus, mussels, and tilapia. HELLO!<br />
 </p>
<div id="attachment_1911" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1911 " title="banderillas_los sarapes, copyright Emily Trostle" src="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/banderillas_los-sarapes1.jpg" alt="banderillas_los sarapes" width="400" height="268" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Banderillas Ahogadas</p></div>
<p>For a small appetizer and to try something of the regular menu, we decided upon <strong>Banderillas Ahogadas</strong>, or, Taquitos. Being familiar with only the ones you buy frozen and then have the option of either baking or nuking, these turned out to be quite a delight. About three inches long, they were perfect for two polite bites or one ambitious one. Down one side, a red, tomatoey, acidic but sweet and still spicy sauce; down the other, a green fruity but really spicy green sauce. I also ordered a cup of <strong>Caldo Xochitl</strong>. A super clear broth soup, it contained chicken, vegetables and rice which made it feel homey. The lime and cilantro gave it an extremely fresh, tangy, herbal aspect that balanced the spice. For those wary of heat, I would suggest the mild option of this soup. It’s a tasty hot, but it continues to build as you consume the soup.</p>
<div id="attachment_1914" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1914  " title="Caldo_los sarapes, copyright Emily Trostle" src="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Caldo_los-sarapes.jpg" alt="Caldo Xochitl" width="400" height="355" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Caldo Xochitl</p></div>
<p> <br />
Then&#8230; the main course. Our Snapper came out propped up on his belly with stuffing flowing out if his back. On one side was a pile of rice and more seafood, the other side boasted a fresh spring mix salad with light, citrusy vinaigrette. Wes, my boyfriend, looked into its green olive eyes for a second, not quite sure what to do (recall, he’s the cheesesteak aficionado). After some instruction and demonstration on my part, he was more than willing to strip every bone clean. We dug out the pleasantly seasoned stuffing; I shredded off some fried skin to crunch on, Wes took all the rice and left only salad. The snapper was very mildly flavored, which is to be expected. The best way I found to devour the poor guy was to take good amount of flesh, some of the stuffing, a little bit of rice, and some of the salad and mix it all together, squeeze a lime over it and enjoy. This created the difference in textures and flavors and sensations that I love about food.</p>
<div id="attachment_1916" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-1916 " title="Red Snapper, copyright Emily Trostle" src="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Red-Snapper.jpg" alt="Red Snapper" width="400" height="234" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Red Snapper</p></div>
<p> <br />
The whole fish experience went as smoothly as I could’ve hoped. I pushed myself to territories within food that I was neither comfortable nor familiar with and was greatly rewarded. I understand it can often feel like a gamble when going to a new restaurant or trying an entirely foreign (to you) type of food, but foodies should want to challenge themselves and create these amazing experiences. I don&#8217;t know if Los Sarapes is the best and most authentic Mexican food available in Bucks County but for someone like me who’s unsure or just curious, it’s a slam dunk.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>by guest blogger <a href="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/?page_id=2" target="_self">Emily Trostle</a></em></p>
<p>At a time when most people are feeling the burn of the economic crisis, <a href="http://www.taborafarmandorchard.com" target="_blank"><strong>Tabora Farm and Orchard</strong> </a>is thriving.</p>
<p>Driving on Stump Road toward its store, it&#8217;s easy to think you&#8217;re in the middle of nowhere. But as you come upon the modest building, the parking lot always shows signs of activity. The green house to the side of the building is bursting with color. But there are more sights and sensations to be had inside.</p>
<p>Walking into the market, you have two options: Go leftish and inhale deeply, then wander among the breads, stuffed rolls, Danish, cookies, focaccias, pies, tea breads, and beautiful cakes made fresh daily. (And, there’s coffee by the cup, in case you need something to go with that sticky bun that won&#8217;t make it home.)</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1405" title="Tabora bread and danish" src="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Tabora-bread-and-danish1.jpg" alt="Tabora bread and danish" width="400" height="267" /></p>
<p>Or, you can take a right and end up in the midst of produce, quiches, pot pies, fried chicken, pasta salads, and an extensive sandwich menu.</p>
<p>I spoke with owner <strong>Caleb Torrice</strong> in between his batches of cookies. He told me Tabora Farm has eight acres on which they grow as much of their own produce as possible. What they can’t grow there, he gets from his family’s 200-acre farm in upstate New York.</p>
<p>The market has been around for twenty years, the bakery nine years, and the deli since 2004. Considering Tabora won a &#8220;Best of&#8221; award for its crab cakes in 2005, the deli was doing something right from the get-go.</p>
<p>Tabora’s deli is simple but turns out great tasting food. For my feast, I choose a crab cake, a sample of tortellini salad (strongly recommended by Caleb), a turkey and brie panini, a ham and cheddar panini, a ham and swiss roll, and a cheese Danish (I did say feast, remember).</p>
<p>The crab cake was delicious. For the size and price, it’s difficult to find a competitor. I had high expectations of the tortellini salad and wasn’t disappointed. My guff with pasta salads is that there is either too much dressing or they take on a strong onion flavor. This one didn’t suffer from either.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1403" title="Tabora turkey and brie" src="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Tabora-turkey-and-brie1.jpg" alt="Tabora turkey and brie" width="400" height="267" /></p>
<p>The paninis were extremely good. The fact they’re made using Tabora’s own fresh-made bread puts them over the top. The ham and swiss roll (another of Caleb’s recommendations) was perhaps my favorite. Just the right size to be a light lunch with a salad, it’s packed with flavor. I didn’t bother heating mine up and it was still the best part of the meal.</p>
<p>Then there was the cheese Danish: The dough was soft but flakey and slightly sweet, with the egg-yolk color I love in pastry. The cheese filling was smooth and creamy. It was heaven topped with sugar icing and crumb topping.</p>
<p>While there’s no seating at the market, the food is great for those that don’t feel like cooking or going out. Tabora’s bakery has pies and cakes for events, as well as the Danish and coffee you can pick up on the go. There are also gift baskets and catering brochures available if you want to check out what Tabora has to offer. They’ve also applied for a license to sell wine, so stayed tuned.</p>
<p><em><span style="color: #ff0000;">Be sure to stop Tabora&#8217;s on <strong>Friday, August 14th</strong> from 4 &#8211; 7 pm for <strong>Customer Appreciation Day</strong>. There will door prizes, gifts, raffles and live music.</span></em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is what they call a British summer. Rain, cool temperatures, with the sun popping out every now and then just to tease you. The really annoying part is that according to my sister, <em>England</em> is getting <em>our</em> summer weather right now. It&#8217;s just not fair. Even the farmers are getting tired of this weather.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-867" title="Strawberry field at Anchor Run CSA, Wrightstown" src="http://buckscountytaste.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/strawberry-field.jpg?w=300" alt="Strawberry field at Anchor Run CSA, Wrightstown" width="300" height="196" />But there is lots of cool stuff happening this weekend. <strong>Crossing Vineyards and Winery</strong> is kicking off their <a href="http://www.crossingvineyards.com/events/index.html#concerts" target="_self"><strong>Outdoor Summer Music Series</strong> </a>on Friday night with the <strong>Lynn Randall Quartet</strong> doing the Great American Songbook. There are two <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Strawberry </span><span style="color:#ff0000;">Festivals</span></strong> happening, one in Hatboro and one in Quakertown. And, of course, there&#8217;s still plenty of pick-your-own strawberries around too (see our <a href="http://buckscountytaste.wordpress.com/2009/06/09/tips-on-pick-your-own-strawberries/" target="_self">post </a>below). The <strong><a href="http://www.mtfd5775.com/" target="_self">Milford Township Volunteer Fire Company</a></strong> will be finishing up their week-long Carnival, and in addition to a firehouse breakfast at the <strong>Ivyland Volunteer Fire Company</strong>, there&#8217;s a chicken BBQ dinner at the <strong>Chalfont Firehouse</strong>.</p>
<p>Last but not least, don&#8217;t forget to stop in at your <span style="color:#99cc00;"><strong>local farmers&#8217; market</strong> </span>this week. In addition to the weekend markets listed below, <a href="http://springtownfarmersmarket.org/" target="_self"><strong>Springtown</strong> </a>has their market on Wednesdays, <a href="http://www.buckscountyfoodshedalliance.org/" target="_self"><strong>Lower Makefield</strong> </a>and <a href="http://www.buckscountyfoodshedalliance.org/sm_db_item.php?featuretype=market&amp;id=13" target="_self"><strong>New Hope</strong> </a>are on Thursdays. Local veggies and fruits include healthy greens (lettuce, chard, spinach, radish, collard, mustard, broccoli rabe), radishes and turnips, and, of course, strawberries.</p>
