Calling all stoners: the dream chip has been invented. I don't really know why this wasn't thought of before, but I'm glad it has made it's debut in the glossy pages of a magazine advertisement. Skinny Pig Meets Skinny Tostitos What is this exactly? Well take a good look. It's a corn […]

OBAO
As posted previously, I may not have gotten to OBAO for lunch, but I certainly made my way over there for dinner. Turns out they don’t take reservations, but it really wasn’t packed at all. There were more orders being placed for delivery, from what I could tell. Either way, […]
Sahara’s Turkish Cuisine
Rarely do I stumble upon a place in the city (and in Kips Bay, no less) that offers a meal that is delicious from beginning to end, but that’s what this place does. Sahara’s, a turkish/middle-eastern restaurant located just a few blocks from the Kips Bay movie theater and NYU […]
Marfa
Walking into Marfa on the LES the other night, I can’t say that I knew for sure what I was getting into. There was a big steer head cow skull above the bar, paper bags used as candle holders (fire hazard?), and Marfa happens to be a city in West […]
The Pump Opens in Midtown Today
Perfectly timed to open in the first week of the new year when everyone is diet-crazy, here comes The Pump. All the health nuts out there (whom I would imagine don't go near my blog) are probably really excited about this new location in Midtown. I passed by it a […]

Waitrose Live: Digital Interactive Cooking Magazine
I discovered Waitrose Live yesterday; a digital, interactive food and cooking magazine. For all of you commoners, Waitrose is an upscale supermarket in the UK, much like our Whole Foods here in the US, except the only mere difference is Waitrose has a "Royal Warrant" to supply groceries and wine to Elizabeth II (I'm sticking my […]
Black Box Wines (and Memories)
Nothing says "alcoholic" like getting drunk in your very own apartment on a Monday night…and nothing says "struggling alcoholic" like boxed wine. Now, be that as it may, I am proud to say that I am neither of these things (I swear), but I do enjoy the occassional glass of […]
New Diets for the New Year
Ah, the new year. 2010. The time of resolve and willpower is upon us once again. The time when we repent our indulgences and forgive ourselves for having that extra slice of pie and extra ladle of gravy. It's all ok, because it's January now. Can someone explain to me how January […]
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to all. Thanks for reading and please see below for what my New Years Eve will consist of. Yes. It's cheesecake. Amen.
