The latest invention by chef Dominique Ansel is the Milk & Cookie Shot and was introduced at South by Southwest in Austin. Each chocolate chip cookie is shaped into a shot glass and milk is infused with Tahitian vanilla. From Friday March 14th, the Milk & Cookie Shots will be made available in the New York store of Dominique Ansel Bakery as an “after school special” starting at 3pm. The inspiration for the cookie came from the American tradition to dip cookies in milk, something we wrote about before in the ‘cookie monster‘ article.

Every Tuesday Lotte Maas (35) cuts at café bar Baarsch, Amsterdam. As ‘Amsterdam pop-up hairdresser’ they cut some eight clients a night in the pub. Previously she cut include at Club VLLA, festivals and soon at OT301. Easy for anyone with too little time for a haircut during office hours and weekends. In addition, waiting is a lot more fun with a beer and for the bar owner it’s a win as well because there is extra traffic on a Tuesday night.
IBM collaborated with the Institute of Culinary Education (ICE) to cook up dishes based on recipes created by the computer, the project is called ‘cognitive cooking’. The IT company IBM has been working for several years to develop a computer that thinks like a human, and recently they came up with a system that compiles recipes. The cook can add an ingredient in the computer system, the system analyzes what might go with a key ingredient identified by the chef and gives a combination that is probably never made before. The food pairing is based on research and scientific theories on the pairings of ingredients. Some examples of unique combinations are Baltic apple pie and an Austrian chocolate burrito. The chefs will serve the special dishes paired by the computer via the IBM Food Truck. Via the website consumers are kept informed about the route of the food truck.
