Food Adventuring Around NYC
For the fourth year in a row, I present the 100 most exciting dishes I’ve consumed during my food adventures around the five boroughs. Look for another five dishes every few days. I purposefully don’t put out a list of the 10 best restaurants because it would be totally unfair for me to judge. Unlike …
My search for the best falafel in New York continues…. SADLY, ZAYTOONS IS NOW CLOSED. Whether they’re stuffed with pickles, hummus, tahini, or hot sauce, most falafel sandwiches look the same. It’s usually a pita pocket overflowing with toppings. But leave it to Zaytoons, the long-time Middle Eastern restaurant on Smith Street to change things up. …
For the third year in a row, I’m going to attempt to eat every single item on Time Out New York’s annual 100 Best Dishes list. In no particular order, here’s my take on their Top 100. Let the gluttony continue… I had a tour attendee a few days ago who had recently visited Rice to …
For the third year in a row, I’m going to attempt to eat every single item on Time Out New York’s annual 100 Best Dishes list. In no particular order, here’s my take on their Top 100. Let the gluttony continue… I never get to eat out on Monday nights because I have to work at …
I’ve devoured Time Out’s 100 Best dishes and now, once again, I’ve been inspired to create my own list. These are the 100 dishes I have continued to think about since tasting them at some point in 2011. Look for another five dishes every few days. These are in no particular order. NUMBER 80: GRILLED …

Once again Time Out New York released their Top 100 Dishes of the year and once again, I’m going to eat my way through every one. And no price point or subway delay will stop me. In no particular order, here’s my take on their Top 100. One of the first restaurants I remember being …
SADLY, ETON IS NOW CLOSED. I tend to think it’s a problem when the innards of a dumpling fall out of the skin and never quite make it into your mouth. Unless you have some bad chopstick skills, this is something that should be dealt with in the making of the little pillows. And while I …
Yellow pickled eggs do not sound like a terribly appetizing conquest. But if it’s on the list, I’m gonna eat it. And so this brings me to The Vanderbilt in Prospect Heights. The Vanderbilt is not inside a hotel, but rather on Vanderbilt Avenue. It was a bitterly cold night and the bar/restaurant was pretty …
SADLY, FRANNY’S IS NOW CLOSED. A new day is upon us. Who would have thought a few years ago that you could walk into a pizza place and find out where every single ingredient came from and on what farm it was grown? And I’m not even talking about the required San Marzano tomatoes (which are …
