Food Adventuring Around NYC
I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2017… Dessert is not always on the agenda for me at Indian restaurants, but maybe I should be a bit more open-minded. I’ve tried a few pastries and Indian sweets, but nothing has knocked my socks off like the makhan malai at Indian Accent. This ball …
I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2017… I’ve often sang the praises of the yeast bombs made by Dough – always slathered with a perfectly balanced flavored glaze (blood orange is king).

I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2016… New Yorkers just could not get enough poke this year. It was hand’s down the hottest food trend in the city with laughable queues at lunch for same chopped raw fish over rice. Pokeworks might have the longest lines but when I found an …
I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2016… SADLY, SIMON SIPS IS NOW CLOSED. This year my favorite little hidden coffee shop jumped into the nitro game with Parlor Coffee cold brew pushed through a tap system with nitrogen. It creates a cream, silky texture and a slightly efferevescent finish. The coffee …
I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2016… It doesn’t get trendier than avocado toast. It’s as simple as can be – smashed avocado maybe toasted with some lemon and chili flakes and placed on a thick piece of toast. No wonder it’s such a brunch sensation. Gotan adds a little salty feta, bright …
Every week, I document another dish that impressed and satiated me during my food adventures around New York City Gabriel Kreuther is a pretty well-known name in the groups I run in.

Every week, I document another dish that impressed and satiated me during my food adventures around New York City I find it very ironic that the best of the four dishes I tasted at Pat LaFrieda Meat Purveyors was one of their vegetarian sides.

I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2015… Num Pang is known for their meat-heavy Cambodian-style sandwiches. And they’re great with cilantro and pickled vegetables on a buttery baguette, but I discovered that the flavors are just as bold and unique in salad form. I’ve been addicted to their chimchurri-glazed chicken salad this …

And that is because of an influx of Muslim immigrants into the city over the last few decades. The first halal vendor in Midtown is still going strong and serving the best chicken …
My search for the best cheesecake in New York continues…. The cakes at Lady M are impeccable. They’re beautifully designed and have an irresistible light, heavenly quality.
