To start things off, this week we have a delicious french onion soup recipe inspired by none other than the Onion Knight himself, Davos Seaworth. I just love Davos and his pouch of finger bones. Don’t worry, those don’t go into this soup. So if you’re looking for a delicious onion soup recipe that’s perfect for warming your chilly nights at sea, read on! Continue reading

Today we have made something sweetly delicious inspired by Assassin’s Creed III and Ratonhnhakè:ton, also known as Connor.

Assassin’s Creed- Altair’s Chicken Shawarma
8 Mar
Melvin and I love the Assassin’s Creed series, so we thought making a dish inspired by each game would be pretty fun! Since delving into history is a major part of the games, let’s richen the experience by eating great food from each ancestor’s culture. Altaïr Ibn-La’Ahad was from Syria, and so is shawarma. Everyone, including the Avengers, knows how freaking delicious shawarma is. The only problem is, most people don’t have a spit to roast meat all day. So Melvin and I found a recipe where you can recreate the shawarma flavor in your own kitchen, without having to install a spit. Even though that would be pretty awesome. Continue reading

Kiki’s Delivery Service…. Part I… Pancakes!
16 Nov
Jiji, if nobody comes in, I’m gonna have to eat pancakes forever and be fat, fat, fat! And what am I supposed to do about that?
Well Kiki, Melvin and I can answer that for you. Eat more pancakes! Melvin and I thought it would be fun to do some recipes inspired by one of our favorite directors, Hayao Miyazaki. In Kiki’s Delivery Service, Kiki ends up eating pancakes because she’s a little low on cash. I think us fellow basement dwellers can relate to that. So if you’re finding that your wallet is looking a little slim, and you’re starving, take a cue from Kiki and whip up some pancakes! Kiki makes hers from a box, but we’re going to make ours from scratch. Want to learn how easy it is to make pancakes from scratch? Read on! Continue reading
Pikachu Bento Box!

October has come to an end, and after a month full of spooky recipes, I think I need an overdose of cute to change things up. Melvin and I had a long discussion about what could be the subject of a super cute bento box. Talk of making a bento box full of baby red pandas and kittens occurred, but this was quickly forgotten when Melvin brought up… Pokémon! Because come on, there is nothing cuter than a pocket monster that you raise, train and then take to battle. So read on if you want to learn how to make an adorable bento box that will have you screaming, “Lunch, I choose you!” Continue reading
