Restaurant Reviews

I realized I was going to have another chance to go out when I boned my first Live Off Groupon (link) blog post, but I was leaving NYC, so I had to make it happen in Boston. When I called Tina from Carrots ‘N Cake (link) to join me, she was going to NYC, so [...]

Vesta – Plate 60

January 22, 2010

This summer, I came across a blog called The NYC Game (link) and thought it was completely stupid.
What’s the game?
Why can’t I play?
This game sucks.
Then I read another page. This girl meets the culture and style mavens of NYC, finds out the experiences every true New [...]

I’d just seen this video on Pat Lafrieda meats on Always Hungry (link) and was pretty impressed by that organization. If you get a chance, take a look – it’s an interesting view from a side of the industry that a lot of us don’t pay attention to. Without watching the video, you [...]

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 [...]

Greenwich Grill – Plate 57

January 22, 2010

Today was a great lesson in being cool. The issues we had in the morning finding the waffle truck were solved by a quick phone call, and the hour and fifteen minutes I waited for Lauren of East Village Kitchen (link) wasn’t the end of the world. She was at an interview at [...]

Public – Plate 7

January 4, 2010

I’ve been trying to figure out the best way to get from place to place in the city to minimize outdoor time and maximize productivity time. It takes a minute to walk from my apartment to the 116th and Lex 6 train, 25 minutes to Spring Street. It doesn’t make sense to deal [...]

The places that are most skeptical of the projects I do are always the asian places run by the old guard. Maybe it has something to do with my accent . . .
Precious Chinese Cuisine was the reason that Hoboken appears in 93 Plates. There are plenty of restaurants in New York that [...]

Well, this isn’t going quite the way I planned. The first restaurant I go to, the writer can’t come, and at the second, the manager who I set everything up with forgot to tell them I was coming. What are you gonna do? If there’s one thing about this project that I [...]

In-N-Out Burger

December 1, 2009

I’ve been in countless conversations as a west coaster extolls the virtues of In-N-Out Burger; I then salivate awaiting the day I’ll taste unparalleled burger excellence. Today was that day.
I will say this; it’s the best chain fast food burger you can get in America. Now, you must remember, it is still just a [...]
