Cook-off: David Lynch's quinoa vs. Robert Rodriguez's sinful Texas brisket and ribs

By Mona Goldwater, Cooking Ed.

This is strange.  Do other directors add cooking videos to DVDs? Other than Robert Rodriguez, who started it; he's released three or four of his Ten Minute Cooking School episodes on various DVDs—Puerco Pibil, Sin City Breakfast Tacos, and Texas Barbecue...from the GRAVE! (JT Hague, a character in RR's Grindhouse film Planet Terror, sucummbed to the zombies, but left behind his secret barbecue recipe). 

David Lynch's quinoa dish--unlike Rodriguez's--is a clean, but rather ascetic dish.  Different strokes.

Machete, the movie: Don't miss it

Robert Rodriguez's movie Machete was funny, insane, over the top, stupid, and just great. The cast and acting was awesome, the score perfect, and a timely story about a giant mess. I think I liked this best of all of RR's movies--probably better than either of the original Grindhouse movies (which I really like). Trejo, DeNiro, Steven Segal, Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Alba, Don Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Steve Fahey, Cheech Marin...all pretty wonderful. Lohan and Cheech were just bent in their parts...wonderful. And, then, there's the mind bending machete work and all the rest of the pretty much nonstop action. This Mexploitation flick is a perfect corker for summer.  I like it so much, I saw it twice this weekend.
