Prepare meals with a drilling machine or hairdryer
22-7-2013
We all expect knives, forks and spoons in any kitchen, but what about hairdryers, drilling machines and paper shredders? At five restaurants in Chicago the chefs use power tools in the kitchen to prepare their meals. The cook at restaurant Primehouse uses a drill to drill off the ends of corn and makes cobs easier to hold. The cook at Bakersfield uses a paper shredder to cut tortillas into thin strips. Fun to see how to use these tools in the kitchen.
Breakfast beer
19-7-2013
Martin House Brewing Company has developed a special breakfast beer with 5% alcohol, the ‘Day Break 4 Grain Breakfast Brew’. The beer is made of barley, wheat, oats, rye, local honey, milk and sugar. The honey, milk and sugar give the beer a unique sweetness. But whether this beer can really replace breakfast nor it is wise to have a drink before the afternoon starts… For youth at camp sites it might be a better breakfast than a beer to wash away their hangover.
Cola-flavored wine
18-7-2013
The French winemaker Hausmann Famille has introduced a special wine on the French market: the Rouge Sucette, a cola-flavored wine. The wine is composed of 75% wine and 25% of a mix of sugar, water and coke. The wine contains 9% alcohol and should be served cold. Hausmann Famille wants to interest younger generations in France with this cola-wine. However, you wouldn’t expect a wine like this of the most leading wine country, sounds to me like ‘If you can’t beat them, join them’. ^Laura

I know it rocks but please do not steal it
15-7-2013
It sometimes happens that people steal a glass from the bar as a reminder of the night out. Cider-maker Kopparberg has developed a solution for this problem. They protected their new glasses with a security system with ink. When the ‘thief is more than 100 meters away from the bar the ink will ‘explode’. The goal is not to punish people but to dissuade them from stealing the glass.
