These hot pickled peppers were a Cuban sandwich garnish made by my friend and all-around great chef Kevin McAfee. You can indulge in his talents at Café Stella in Silverlake.

Thanks to all the new ESFB subscribers, Facebook friends and Twitter followers. If you want to join in the fun, click one of the links. In the meantime, here are my favorite food articles of the week:

Eating LA has a question: Can the Lazy Ox Canteen be all things to all people?

The Minty is showing off some savory pics from her DTLA Mac & Cheese Crawl.

Jonathan Gold wants us all to stop with double-entendre-laced ball talk. Yuck, I agree.

Tuna Toast makes me swoon with an “unctuous” pig’s head bolognese. Where’s mine?

    Kevin Mcafee may be one of the hottest young chefs in town. Look for him next season on “Top Chef”.
