Tulsa Food

Crazy weather normally does not have a factor in the type of food I eat day-to-day. Although it is unbelievably, insanely hot in Tulsa this summer, I still have been indulging on just as many sizzling burgers, steamy soups and even had myself a few bowls of hot chili served up HOT at Ike’s Chili [...]

“If you took a picture here,” I told my friends, “you could tell people you just got back from Korea.” But I didn’t want to disturb the tables full of Korean families eating, Korean teenagers entertaining their dates, and so I didn’t. But I did photograph the food, and if I told someone who knew [...]

For a woman, few things are better than shopping and dessert. I love a day when I have lunch with a friend, enjoy a few hours of shopping at my own pace and top it all off with dessert in the afternoon followed by a nap. Lunch is best when it’s spur-of-the-moment, but since The [...]

Yokozuna paired with Girouard Vines in Tulsa to provide the wines. They will be introducing their newest wine (Chardonnay) at this event. This 4-course dinner will be incorporating as many locally sourced products as possible.

There is just something about the name that intrigued me to try Sproutz. It sounds refreshing, fresh and healthy…almost guilt-free. It was an adventure, and we got to share it with the owner, Don Eller so that made for a great lunch-time experience. The first thing we tried was the Chicken Soup w/ Homemade Matzo [...]

It’s getting warmer outside. At my house we are checking the pool temperature daily, waiting for it to be ready to jump in. Unfortunately, that also means pulling that swimsuit out of hibernation. Yikes. Having just returned from a week of wine and cheese in California, that’s a scary thought. This year, I’ve decided to [...]

Who would have known that this little treasure is located right outside of Wagoner, OK?  From the conscious effort of using only environmentally friendly products to the re-creation of an old horse barn, The Canebrake is really something special. As an Oklahoman, you should be proud too.  What is a canebrake you ask?  Well first off, canebrake [...]

Tulsa is introducing a new concept into a land of burgers, french fries, steaks and milkshakes. Going Raw.  This concept has been sweeping the country for a few years now and has proven to be a healthier alternative to what most people know as “normal” eating. Cooking not only destroys nutrition and enzymes, but when [...]

As we rounded the corner before stepping through the glass door, all I could say was wow. I felt as if I was in New York City walking into a modern, sophisticated restaurant. With deep shades of black, grey, cream, silver and white, this ambient, classic atmosphere stole my breath as soon as I walked [...]

With a unique approach to creating and presenting some of the most beautiful dishes in town, executive Chef Justin Thompson decided to create one of the specials that will be available during Restaurant Week. We also had the pleasure to speak with manager Mark Shefield at Sonoma Wine Bar and Bistro. Located in modern and [...]

In Oklahoma we have a lot of food and restaurants that set us apart from the rest of the country. Up until this point though, we were missing a crucial link: a raw foods culinary school. That is why we are excited to let you know about the opening of 105degrees Academy the nation’s first [...]

Brunch is one of those idealistic meals that I spend the week relishing the thought of. One of the best things about Sunday’s is having an amazing brunch with friends or family. There are so many wonderfully unique brunches around town. Brunch is the one meal a week that you can relax, enjoy the beauty [...]

Ever wonder about the process your food goes through before getting to your table? We have always been curious and that’s why we got excited when we heard about “Food Inc”. The new documentary “Food Inc”, which opened on July 31st, delves into that very topic. This documentary is a great way to educate yourself [...]

On a cooler day last week I decided that it would be a perfect day to visit the Philbrook museum and the grounds.  We spent the morning enjoying the art as well as the amazing Philbrook mansion.  I had heard several good things about La Villa, the restaurant in the Philbrook, and so we decided [...]

Nothing says summer like meat straight off the grill. These delicious shish-kabobs were super easy to make adding cut up pieces of steak, chicken, onions, grape tomatoes, green peppers and mushrooms. The flavor is unbelievable and makes a well rounded, healthy meal! Pin it

With summertime here nothing is better than a delicious frozen dessert. Tired of snow cones and Popsicles I stopped by Freshberry, with a friend, for a refreshing change. I had not had a chance to stop by yet and I had been anxious to give it a try. Not sure what I wanted, I decided [...]

After these comments were made on Tulsa Food, I decided to try Haruno. It is a new Sushi place but also serves Korean food. According to Haruno’s website, it is a “Pan-Asia restaurant specializing in Japanese sushi and Korean cuisine.” The restaurant’s atmosphere had a fine dining feel and look without the formality or price [...]

In such a busy part of town, Cosmos is still undiscovered by many who frequent the saturated chaos that is 71st and Memorial. Cosmos doesn’t do a lot of advertising; however they provide catering and do a lot of charity work which is very important to co-owner, Miranda Kaiser. Most of Cosmos popularity is likely [...]

It’s a casual Italian hot spot with all the usual’s one would expect to find, pizza, pasta, ravioli and lasagna. However Bellacino’s also offers 24 unique “grinders” which greatly contributes to the popularity of this establishment. Grinders are basically subs on steroids, they come in 9″ and 18″ and are sure to satisfy. The sandwich [...]

In the mood for a sandwich made with homemade bread I decided to give Great Harvest a shot. I had had some of their products in the past but I had never actually been in the store. The store is less of a restaurant and more of a bread store. They actually grind their own [...]
