Food Adventuring Around NYC
I guess I’m going through a potato thing lately. I didn’t come to Double Yolk at the new Tin Building by Jean-Georges for a hash brown, but I left licking my lips not due to the decent egg sandwich or the historic environment, but because of a potato log that was out of this world. …
I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2019… It looks like the carrot dog is no longer offered at the hype machine vegan restaurant By Chloe. Perhaps it was from the critical backlash or it was just a special promotion. But I actually do hope these carrot dogs made by Ducks Eatery’s …
I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2019… The restaurant scene at the South Street Seaport is changing. Case in point is one of the new Momofuku’s to open. Bar Wayō is a destination bar with creative bites. The best thing I tried at lunch was a surprising clam chowder. They don’t …
My search for the best hot dog in New York continues…. When I saw an advertisement for the carrot dog at trendy fast food chain By Chloe, I did not have high expectations. I’ve not been a fan of By Chloe’s other food (except for their sweet potato fries) and was hesitant about trying something …

SADLY, BROOKLYN PIGGIES IS NOW CLOSED. When I was little and dragged to some event where I had to wear a suit and tie, I found salvation in the passed appetizers. And my favorite of all those were the pigs in a blanket. It was amazing that the hot dog could be improved upon, but …
Now that I’ve eaten my way through somebody else’s list (Time Out New York), I’m ready to compile my own 100 spectacular things I’ve tasted in 2012. Look for another five dishes every few days. NUMBER 25: BABA GHANOUSH from DAMASCUS BAKERY New York is loaded with great restaurants and cafés, but that’s hardly the …
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… After having a small taste of Wooly’s at last year’s Vendy Awards (they won the …
My search for the best beer in New York continues…. SADLY, HEARTLAND BREWERY IS NOW CLOSED. While the NY craft beer scene continues to expand with breweries, craft beer bars, and restaurants that brew their own beer, Heartland Brewery has sort of gotten the short end of the stick. I remember visiting the original Union Square …
