A Whole Bunch of Stuff I Ate in June, Part I
I wanted to write a megapost about ten awesome things I ate in June (only three months behind, woohoo), but ten was too much for one post. Here's the first five; I'll get the second part up soon. At the...
Remembering Why Minca Is Awesome, + Cupcakes, Gelato, and Ninja Sex Party
This post took place on February 19. But I remember it like it happened yesterday... ...Nah, I'm lying, I remember it like it happened a month ago. Glisten. If the above photo of a pork belly chunk—50% meat, 50% jelly-like...
Szechuan Gourmet, at Least One Reason to Go to 39th Street
This post originally took place on January 7. Szechuan Gourmet. I have no good reason for not having been to Szechuan Gourmet more often considering how close it is to my office on 27th Street and that I usually slobber...
Lots of Pizza at Co. / Company / Kump
This entry originally took place on February 12. At this point in time, no one seems to equate hearing "kō," as in Co., with Company—the pizzeria opened by New York City's master of all things wheaty and yeasty, Jim Lahey—because...
When Co. Is Closed, Head to Pizza Suprema
Phoenix-based friend Lee Anne visited me from January 28 to February 8 in case you're thinking, "Hey, I remember her...wait, she doesn't live here." I'm going out of chronological order with these posts because that's how my brain feels like...
The Sidewalk from Song Kran Almost Makes Me Want to Cook
"I'm going to Song Kran," announced Ed around lunch time. "Does anyone want anything?" As I slowly swiveled my head to the right to answer Ed, Erin simultaneously glanced towards me from her desk situated diagonally across from mine. Her...
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...
Fried Chicken: A Prelude to Pizza
When you know you're going to attend an all-you-can-eat pizza party for dinner, you should probably be careful about what you eat for lunch. Maybe just stick with a salad or a piece of fruit. Or water. Or air. Oops....
Kofoo's Bucket of Cold, Chewy Noodles
Since I work about a 30-second stroll from Korean take-out Kofoo, it's easily the place that I eat at the most in New York City. Not necessarily every week, but sometimes three times in a row. Or more. It depends...
Gorging with Olivia: Burgers, Gelato, and Persian Food
Burgerrrr Buuurrrrgggerrrrrr. Is "burger" an emotion? I think it might be. Because when I was at Elephant and Castle with Olivia and I had my heart set on eating a burger, all I could think was "buuurrrggerrrr," in the tone...
Last Weekend: Part 2: Pupusas, Dumplings, Jumping, Tea, and Breakfast
A pupusa is a magical entity of foodliness. Mention it to someone who knows of the tasty corn-based delight it brings and you'll get an enthusiastic, wide-eyed—teetering on the edge of maniacal—response more appropriate for the ending of a college...
A night of Korean Tofu and Milkshakes
[Initially I hoped to write about stuff I ate a month ago. But the meals...oh, they keep piling on. Because I've procrastinated too much and have yet to stop consuming. So that I'm no longer a month behind, here's a...
The Spotted Pig, a Stomach-Burning Break, and Too Much Gelato
fat. "Is that a layer of fat on top?" Ed, Alaina, Adam, Raphael and I (aka the Serious Eats family of awesome people) were getting our first look at the Berkshire pork rillette while eating a congratulatory, "Hooray, you didn't...
Too Much Korean Pancake-ness + the Popsicle Reveals Itself
I heart you, banchan From the first time I was presented with a table-ful of banchan, those tasty little dishes of Korean goodies, mostly spicy and vegetarian, I was mystified that I could get a whole meal before actually getting...
Black Pearl, Odessa, brgr, Tebaya, Big Booty, and More
the mountain of clams compells you I had never eaten a fried clam sandwich before I went to Black Pearl, partially because I'm not big on molluscs. But you know what I am big on? THINGS THAT ARE COOKED IN...
Lots of random gluttonous bits from the past few weeks in NYC
You probably noticed that I dragged out my entries about my week-long vacation in Paris over a three week period (counting the entries I made in Paris), meaning that there are a few lost weeks of NYC fooding tucked away...
Polish, Japanese, cupcakes and more: diet of a champion
Things that spring to mind when I think of Valentine's Day: a) It marks yet another year of my unloved existence. b) Oo, chocolate! c) I totally want Polish food. red...everywhere While the first two points are 0% false, I'm...
dense meat, burgers, gelato, eel, etc
so many choices, so little stomach space When you're hungry, you tend to forget that your stomach will reach that point of over-satiated-ness. You know, when you feel like your stomach has expanded to reach your throat or that you're...
NYC eats: so many, oh dear god
My main reason for eating out so often is because...I like da foods. The process of shoving tasty things into my mouth and maneuvering my jaw in such a manner so that my teeth may best crush up the bits...
