i would say that my favorite thing to cook would be sauces. i really like making sauces from scratch with a good veal or chicken stock. the secret is always in the sauce. to make a good sauce:
take veal bones, roast them in the oven at 225^C, and when they get brown, take them out. make sure they do not burn, because this will bring a bitter taste unto the stock. also, roast 2 carrots, one celery stock, one or two onions, a leek. make sure thy get nice and brown, too.
put the bones in a pot (a nice big stock pot). fill with water to cover the bones. bring this to a boil, and then when it gets to a boil, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer, and add the vegetables.
besides the roasted vegetables, add garlic, pepper corns, mushroom trimmings, thyme, rosemary, parsley, tomato paste, and a bayleaf or two.
keep this mixture simmering for 24 hours. make sure the stock is not BOILING, but rather just simmering, so that a bubble comes up every now and again.
strain this mixture through an exceptionally fine strainer (i like to use a dishcloth), and cool it down. when it cools in the fridge, the fat will congeal on top, and you can scrape this off. then your stock is very gelatinous. if you want, you can use this as a soup base, or you can "reduce" it, to concentrate the flavours, and make it extra gelatinous, which gives a good body to the sauce. i like to reduce my stock by about 90%, making a very concentrated stock. this makes a good base for sauce.

I've only tried it with instant coffee, but I think it might be worth making a plunger brew and getting some real caffine levels happening in the mix

a plunger brew is coffee made using a plunger or pot (filter system), as opposed to instant which is simply adding coffee powder to your coffee cup, the latter has far less caffine levels

Today, I am home sick, so I decided to experiment.
Eggs, Rice, 1 T of soy sauce, 1/4 c. of onion, 1 minced green bean.
Thrown everything into a frying pan, and cok until brown. Toss it into a bowl, and then get some chicken. Cook the chicken in the grease left over from the other stuff, then when done, add to the rice/egg/whatever.
It was mighty tasty.

i'm making chili right now. and as for fleetmouse, I'd recommend these restos:
good fries: Mondo Fritz, on st. laurent near schwartz.
good chinese: Delices Flamboyant, on st. laurent, close to prince arthur.
good expensive: Toqué, Mediterraneo, Chorus, and I hear AREA is good. I used to work at Mediterraneo, they have the same owners as bice. when at mediterraneo, take the foie gras, it is to die for. and toqué, take the menu dégustation, it wins the war on drugs.
good sushi: atami, côte des neiges and édouard montpetit (I'm going to eat there tonight)
good mexican: nowhere in the city (okay, cactus is alright, st denis mont royal)
good beer: bières et compagnie, on st laurent near prince arthur, and also on st denis near rachel or soemthing.
good bistro: Leméac (I did my stage there)
and so on... joey

na yeah, supreme, fresh pizza totally wins the war on drugs. my sister makes wicked fresh pizza, beats that take out any day of the week. i also like to make stir fry's nowadays. lots of vegetables with some tofu or a piece of meat and curry sauce, or chinese chili sauce, etc. and my other dish of the year is funky pasta. i like to make penne and rotini with all kinds of creamy and rich sauces, and plenty of vegetables. also, slab bacon cooked crispy is nice with pasta. joey

Hm, I will check out Deli Flamboyant; always on the lookout for good chinese.
Try the house rice at Hong Kong House--when gweilo order it the waiters are obliged to say "that have-a livah, stomach".
Foie gras at Mediterraneo hmmmkay when I'm feeling in the mood... I'm guessing you don't get much of a portion yes? Like I say I wasn't bowled over by what Bice served at my reception but this other time we had grilled vegetables, fried squid and blackened mahi, quite nice.
What u think of Kaizen for sushi? It's the only "good" place I've been to for sushi.
My favorite place for beer is my place after buying some Newcastle Browns at the SAQ. :-)

I can cook almost anything , its easy if you have a recepie.
The only thing that can be a hassle is the basics like not cooking the potatoes for to long , its the fancy stuff that is easy.
I always try to make it look nice even if im only cooking to myself and even if its something really simple like an omelete , i always have to arrange it nice and decorate it like a little artwork hehe!
Baking is harder , i always fail!
Like Joey i enjoy making a nice sauce. I find it easiest to make sauses for fish. And if i catch a fish i smoke it in my little portable smoker (is that what its called?)
Redvine sauce is my alltime favorite i think(not for fish hehe).I could almost drink it out of a bottle (eeew!!)
I cook alot with my mom , she subscribes to this great cooking mag and every weekend we pick a recipe and cook our asses off!!!haha!
