It’s frickin’ COLD outside today. I mean, it’s gotta be below zero. I normally wouldn’t comment on the temperature of the day unless I was outside at a food truck, but this was different. For one, we walked from the L to Roebling instead of the JMZ, which was about a mile [...]

Bogota Bistro – Plate 87

February 25, 2010

All the carbs I had today really compounded for dinner. I had two whole pizzas for lunch and two waffles for breakfast, and now I was going to a Colombian themed place … Potatoes, Yuca, Corn – I was in for it. Luckily, and not by my own choosing, I got some exercise [...]

Bagel World – Plate 71

January 30, 2010

Phil is the second half of $30 a week (link) and he met me for this second lunch of the weekend. We were going to meat at Foodswings (see what I did there?) but it’s in Williamsburg, I heard they were kind of uppity about their values, and in my experience, their management is [...]

Bar Tabac – Plate 70

January 30, 2010

I get three questions when writers first meet me for dinner. #1) What’s your favorite place? #2) Who’s the biggest weirdo/coolest of all the food bloggers you’ve met? And #3) How’d you pick the restaurants? To put it simply, I made a list of the restaurants I most wanted to visit and those on [...]

Tina ran 10K this morning in anticipation of eating at the Chip Shop. We knew this was going to be a heavy meal. I saw the BANNED BY THE HEALTH DEPT. sign on their menu next to the Fried Cherry Pie and I knew I had to have it. Any time someone [...]

Fette Sau – Plate 66

January 24, 2010

I figured that if there was day the heart was going to give out, it would be the day after I visit the place that prides itself on its excellent meat and its whiskey selection. A dangerous combination for the liver as well, I thought I knew what I was in for, but I [...]

Tazza – Plate 58

January 22, 2010

For some reason, whenever I go to a restaurant that I know I am going to pay for, I want to pan the shit out of it (and swear in my posts). Coming here, I’d read some less than stellar reviews. The google rating of this place gives it 2.5 stars. I [...]

This is my second time dining with Jeff this month. I only say this because the first time was at 15 East (link) when I actually had dinner with Marc Masumoto (link). Jeff sat at the opposite end of the bar and his girlfriend overheard our conversation. When Jo-Ann (the owner) came out to [...]

Olslo Coffee – Plate 49

January 19, 2010

Jen Bernstein was excited to see that her neighborhood coffee place was on my list, and when I needed to make some schedule adjustments, she jumped at the chance to make Oslo her second leg of 93 plates (link to first leg). I was happy that everyone was able to accommodate the schedule because [...]
