My search for the best hot dog in New York continues…. SADLY, THE CANNIBAL IS NOW CLOSED. I sure hope in some twisted, alternate universe there is not a bar called The Cannibal where pigs and lambs are eating human flesh, while guzzling beer and checking in on Foursquare. But I suppose it would be what …

My search for the best bagels in New York continues…. The argument over the best bagels in New York is a much heated debate – just like pizza, pastrami, and dumplings. But more than any of those foods, most people’s favorite bagel happens to be the shop closest to them. I think that’s true for …
My search for the best bagels in New York continues…. SADLY, VIC’S BAGEL BAR IS NOW CLOSED. Vic’s Bagel Bar has intrigued me since they opened just over a year ago. It’s the first bagel place that has attempted to put an interesting and hip spin on the classic New York snack. I’ve read that …

Ask anybody who knows anything about New York food to name the 3 most popular Jewish delis in the city and you’ll probably get the same answers: Katz’s, Carnegie, and 2nd Avenue Deli. They’re like the kosher triumvirate. Over the years though, one spot has been trying to sneak its way into that coveted group. …
New York delis have that classic old-school charm. It usually involves surly waiters, flimsy menus, and a dated and unattractive dining room. It reminds you of the 1970’s and makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a Jewish grandmother’s home. One who is so busy cooking that she doesn’t have time to clean. All my …
