Why Is America So Obsessed with Cupcakes Lately?
They’re tiny and overpriced but nonetheless delicious “gourmet” treats. America's cupcake obsession is spread long and far. I’m not sure if it's the trendy shop itself or perhaps the huge variety of mouth watering flavors that make cupcakes so tempting to the passerby. All around the country in virtually every city and town you are sure to find one of these trendy cupcakeries, a bakery dedicated to producing cupcakes. And it’s not just a fad anymore; with 669 million cupcakes sold from October 2010- October 2011, we have to admit that this obsession is serious. From Georgetown Cupcakes to Magnolia Bakery, we know the names well and there is certainly no shortage of cupcakes to fuel America’s obsession. So where did this cupcake obsession come from anyway?

Unique Bread for Grilled Cheese
If there is one food that screams all-American lunch it's the grilled cheese. Toasty buttered bread, edges just slightly burnt, crust crumbly and crunchy, with that all important melty, oozing cheese. That is the basic, the stable of countless families, from the young child, to the busy young adult to the independent grandpa.

I Love Burgers
I love burgers. I'm Going to Prove It: I’ve got an American Diner in my home. I’ve been to America more times than any other country. If I get a bad burger I cry. I make fresh burgers for my family every month (or I lose the will to live). We once had a party where I cooked the biggest Burger in Norwich – it weighed 5lb and was the size of a large paella pan, it was enclosed in a home-made sesame seed bun which took up the whole oven. If ever a new restaurant opens that specialised in burgers – I’m there. I know exactly how the best burger should be – I’ll prove that too.

Top Tips From a Chef for BBQ Perfection
The open flame is one of the oldest cooking methods in the world. Every culture does it.

Best Side Dishes for Lamb
Especially during the Easter season, lamb is one of the most popular entrees served at parties, get togethers and family holiday dinners. While selecting lamb as the centerpiece may be a simple, straight forward decision, choosing what to put alongside it never is. Because of the consistency of lamb and it's incredible versatility there is a seemingly endless selection of sides that compliment it well.
