Food Adventuring Around NYC
In their old space, I think I may have worked my way through Superiority Burger’s menu of inventive vegetarian fast food. I’m a bit ashamed that I hadn’t been able to visit them in their new location until now. This spring, they came back in a much larger space (with wait staff) in an old …
Even though they spell out how special they are in their name, I was late to the game when it came to Winner. Their original Park Slope location had been on my radar since they opened days before the pandemic became a pandemic. Since then the lines to get loaves of bread, sandwiches, and cookies …

Every week, I document another dish that impressed and satiated me during my food adventures around New York City I don’t think I realized how universal the egg sandwich is until I started thinking about this blog post. While we have our BEC in New York, there is the sabich in Israel, the tamago sando …

Every week, I document another dish that impressed and satiated me during my food adventures around New York City There was a time in the last decade when I was really dedicated to finding the most iconic dishes in New York City. I made a web series all about it and continued to re-invent this …
Every week, I document another dish that impressed and satiated me during my food adventures around New York City Wow! I’m getting predictable. I just checked to see what my final Dish of the Week from last year was and turns out 2018 Brian Hoffman had the same thoughts as the present day one. Last year …
I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2019… Ciao, Gloria just opened in a very generic looking corporate building in Brooklyn.
