What’s In The Middle? Doughnut Plant
Warning: a visit to the Doughnut Plant may result in temporary euphoria. This is the thing I love about being a foodie in New York City – just when you think something delicious can't be made to be even MORE delicious, someone does it. Enter Doughnut Plant. It's not […]
Tuesday Tastes: Eataly Part 2
So what did I buy from my trip to Eataly? How nice of you to ask. I bought (and made) the following.. Classic baguette from La Panetteria, prosciutto, and fresh mozzarella. So I made some prosciutto-wrapped melon. Here's that ridonkulous pancetta-provolone bread.. And I made some sliced mozzarella and tomato with fresh […]
Tuesday Tastes: Eataly
I finally made a little trip to Eataly. No, I'm not a bad speller, I'm talking about the Italian mega-marketplace in Flatiron. I will have to return one of these days to try some of the restaurants because I hear they are fab - but this was a shopping-only excursion. […]
Monday Smorgasbord
Since I hate Mondays with a passion, I thought it would be nice to ignore them altogether. Instead I'd like to focus on the future and what's to come in the food world. Consider this a weekly foodie calendar of sorts; restaurant openings/closings, food classes, food festivals, yada yada you […]

Happy Hump Day!
From now on, Wednesdays will be all about celebrating Hump Day. No, not THAT kind of Hump Day, you pervs – just a nod to the middle of the week, the first day that's socially acceptable to go out drinking, and two days before good ol' Friday. Where am I […]
Tuesday Tastes
The Skinny Pig is going through some changes; take the shnazzy new banners for example (thank you GFQ!), and in addition to that, there will be a new schedule so you'll know what to expect on The Skinny Pig from now on. As you can see, Tuesdays will be a compilation of reviews and/or smaller posts that […]
More From Chinatown: Fay Da Bakery
After my meal at Tasty Hand-Pulled Noodles, I wanted something sweet, so I stopped into Fay Da Bakery for some treats. This place is fantastic and CHEAP. You should see the size of these pastries and some of them are 90 cents! CENTS. I don't think I've bought anything […]
