The Origin of Fossilized Stones
Stone Rissani is famous for the fossils contained within it from the Primary Era. It is mined in the Moroccan Sahara near the town of Rissani (from which it derives its name). It is a fossilized marble rock, containing mainly cephalopods, which only appear if the stone is polished. Otherwise the fossil merges with the stone. The rock is very hard; it has a coefficient of zero capillary. The age of the fossils are dated to the Upper Devonian Period (about 360 million years). A majority of the fauna within the rock is made up of goniatites, ammonites, orthoceras, corals, and trilobites. Iron oxide and carbonate deposits give the rock its black color.

This is the view of the Chicago skyline from what is now Origins Park right off of Ashland in Chicago. We visited Origins Park because it was the proud host of "Bubbly Creek" during the time of the slaughterhouses and stockyards. This is the infamous place known for, spontaneously combusting goo, countless carcasses of the millions of unlucky creatures that had met their match, and all of the smells that go with these things. I really can't imagine what it could have smelled like in the 1800's, but it smelled pretty terrible even when we went. I thought it was really sad that it was so vandalized because I thought it was super cool that kids from Chicago schools made all of the plaques lining the paths. I think places like this should be more respected for their history, progress, and culture.

Tasting Britain got the invite down to Blessing’s Wine & Cocktail Bar in Spitalfields, London, to see what Abdulla Amin and Hugo Toland (AKA ‘Origins Of’) are all about. Londoners and friends of 20 years, this is Abdulla and Hugo’s first 'kitchen takeover’ - and as far as I can tell they’re strongly Middle Eastern inspired; flatbreads, falafel (etc). Abdulla started getting the ideas for a lot of these dishes when out in Afghanistan, and a few of the recipes (such as the 'hummus and pickles') have been handed down from his family on his mother’s side. That’s about all I can say about about the food having only had the chance to try a little of it - this place was uh…heaving.
As for Blessings - it’s a converted 3 story townhouse, cafe by day, bar by night and not so far away from Brick Lane or Spitalfields Market. Each floor gets used! The basement bar is perhaps the liveliest of them all, hosting live music and DJs at certain times of the week, on the first floor above this is Phil’s Bar (I am told that Phil is one of the owners…) - Phil’s Bar is a little more relaxed than below, full of comfortable sofas, chesterfields., and something they’re calling ‘a vintage den’ - great views of The City from there. Above that is the roof terrace, which is probably the strangest roof terrace I have ever seen - yes that is a bike embedded into the wall (...I’ll let the photos do the talking).
