Chopped Liver Sandwiches, New and Old: Mile End Sandwich and Eisenberg's Sandwich Shop
Photograph: blacque_jacques on Flickr Last weekend, I accomplished a thing! Not a...remarkable thing. Or a difficult thing. Nor something that's actually worth writing about (although I'll admit I gave myself a mental gold star, because if it's good enough for...
Berlin, Day 2: Three-Hour Guided Tour, Ice Cream at Fräulein Frost, and Dinner at Hasir
For an overview of my trip to Berlin that took place from April 5 to 12, check out this introductory post. I'm a total noob when it comes to Berlin and German history, and all German translations I've presented are...
I Should Eat More Pastrami Reubens from Katz's Deli
I love that sign. When you live in New York City, it's easy to overlook popular, tourist destination restaurants that are actually good. Take Katz's, the over century-year-old home to hefty meatpiles featuring pastrami, corned beef, brisket, and other sliced...
Hong Kong-Style Egg Sandwiches and Buttered Bolo Bao at Cha Chan Tang
Whenever I go to a Hong Kong-style diner, it's mostly because I want this: Egg sandwich from Cha Chan Tang Yup, a simple egg sandwich. Usually a folded omelet-thing or mass of semi-scrambled egg in between square slices of plain...
Sandwich Rage: Whole Grain Bread ≠ Baguette
This post originally took place on December 29. I basically wrote the whole thing on the 29th. So why am I posting it nearly two weeks later? I thought it may have been a bit too negative and crazy-sounding for...
My Favorite Sandwiches in New York City and Beyond
A bunch of sandwiches that shall appear somewhere down this page. Up until about 2005, I wouldn't have labeled myself as a lover of sandwiches. Looking back, I don't know what the hell was wrong with me.* When my...
Sort Of Budget-Priced Lobster Rolls from Luke's Lobster
Each of the three lobster roll-eating experience I've had in my life has been memorable for different reasons. First was my dinner at Pearl Oyster Bar over three years ago with Kathy. Our newly lobster roll-enriched palates were ready to...

Iceland, Day 2, Part II: Reykjavik from Afar, and Lamb Sandwiches
This entry originally took place on April 19 during my trip to Iceland from the 18 to 24. At the rate I'm going, you'll be reading about Iceland for the rest of the month. HOOYEAHuh fail. Check out other posts...
A Day of Pork and Beef from DiNic's and Royal Tavern
This entry originally took place on February 28. It's almost March on my blog! WOW!@#$% After visiting the Mütter Museum and getting our fill of diseased organs and deformed fetuses (it's a "must visit" though, unless you are especially squeamish),...
Best Thing Ever: Mozzarella Tomato Basil Sandwich
I didn't even take a photo. The sandwich had no chance. Since I didn't have an appetite this morning, I didn't eat anything until 4 p.m., at which point I wolfed down a pressed mozzarella, eggplant, tomato, and basil panini...
Bad Meals of the Past: Mary's Fish Camp
Mary's Fish Camp Whenever Kathy and I need to refer to "that time we went to a restaurant that kind of sucked and wasn't worth it," Mary's Fish Camp pops up, usually followed by a short recap about why it...
Cuban Sandwiches and a Serious Eats Round Up
WIN. I hadn't eaten the cuban sandwich from El Castillo de Jagua in over a year when I tried it again about two weeks ago. Thankfully, it's still an awesome combination of a pile of pork topped with a slice...
Philly, Day 2: Snacks at Reading Terminal, Sandwiches at Tria
Note: This entry originally took place on November 8. Also, happy gobble day! Aside from the times they break down or take me to the opposite side of the city without warning, I love subways. At first it was because...
Philly, Day 2: Breakfast Pizza, a Most Awesome Brunch Sandwich from Morning Glory Diner
Note: This entry originally took place on November 8. I know I just said that I don't understand the fervor behind brunch, but I think that's only when I'm in New York City where long wait times and high prices...
Donuts, Sandwiches, Ice Cream, a Party, and Pasta
Boston cream! After the Night of the Manatee, Alex and I met up with Kathy at Alpha Donuts to help her with her epic Donut Hunt of 2008. The donut hunt is for an upcoming post on Serious Eats: New...
NYC Vegetarian Eatery Recommendations, Part II (6-10)
Here's the second half of my list of top ten favorite vegetarian and vegan eateries. It's more recycled than the first half; nothing on this list is new to my blog. I also fudged the line of vegetarian and vegan,...
Gelato and Spicy Rizzak, In That Order
I meant to have an entry earlier in the week, but I was distracted by that thing called TV. But not normal TV, which is bad enough; I'm talkin' TV-whenever-I-want-it, which entails watching an entire season of Roswell. Dedicating yourself...
The Spotted Pig: Burger Vs. Cubano, Plus Some Banoffee Pie
Hello there. This is the chargrilled burger from The Spotted Pig. The general reaction to this burger upon first impression is, "Holy jebus," or a drool-filled utterance of similar meaning. Although far from homely, I wouldn't call it super fancy...
