Bananas Foster Three Ways

My favorite blog, Culinary Concoctions by Peabody, just did a post about a yummy cake she created called Banana Fosters Crumb Cake. It sounds yummy. She is absolutely a baking genius.

Below is a 36 second video about showing a Bananas Foster Cocktail by Ben Roche from Moto in Chicago. They use liquid nitrogen to make the ice-cream. Cool. If I ever go to Chicago, I am definitely going to Moto. The second video is an interesting video about Moto.

The third video is Alton Brown doing a show about bananas. He starts making Bananas Foster at the beginning of the second minute.

We used to serve Bananas Foster when I worked at Vargo's in Houston fourteen years ago or so. It originated at Brennan's in New Orleans and is still one of my favorite desserts.
