restaurant review

I just wrote a post full of piss and vinegar about how slighted I was by this place, but why bother? What’s done is done and I can’t waste my time stewing about how mistreated I felt at the time. So, readers, I’m sorry. There are no pictures of food, no videos, [...]

I walked into Carnegie Deli on Christmas Morning, hoping to get an audience with Sandy. I’d called eight times before this and this was my last ditch effort at roping him in. After all, when setting this project up, there were going to be some days where people wouldn’t answer the phone or [...]

TBSP – Plate 91

March 4, 2010

This was my second meal with Sarah of Edible Living (link) and the first time, she didn’t want to be on camera, but we got her this time. Maybe it was peer pressure from Katie (link), her friend in from San Francisco. Yes, three food bloggers at once up in this joint, and [...]

Kittichai – Plate 90

March 4, 2010

Lawrence fed my snake some beer once; it was slithering this way and that. If you’re an Adam Sandler fan, it’s a veritable certainty that you get the joke (and yes, my snake was fine). The good thing was that was all behind us by the time we started our meal at Kittichai. I’m [...]

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 [...]

Ditch Plains – Plate 88

February 26, 2010

Florie and Thomas were such troopers to come in for brunch in the city today; it must have been below zero outside. I took a cab to get to Ditch Plains half an hour earlier than it opened because A) I was fa reezing, B) I thought I was late, C) there’s no really [...]

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 [...]

Fornino – Plate 86

February 16, 2010

So I’ve done a lot of writing over the course of 93 plates. I estimate it to be around 40,000 words. I wanted to do something interesting for these last posts, so aside from a few snippets of things that
I experienced I’m going to crowdsource my write-up. For all of you unfamiliar [...]

Wafels and Dinges – Plate 85

February 16, 2010

We were supposed to meet the Waffle Truck last Tuesday, but after a little snafu, we went to Starbucks (link). It wasn’t that bad, but I have to tell you, in the moment, I was pretty heated. I got on the 2/3 at 116th and went to the place listed on the website, found [...]
