If you read my post on Paros, you’ll know that this was my first time in Naxos. I feel weird calling these posts a “travel guide” when I’ve only visited once, ya know? Feels like not nearly enough visits to call myself an expert. So instead, I’m saying “here’s what […]

Paros, Greece 2021: Where I Stayed, Where I Ate (and Partied)
It’s taken me a minute to actually get to this post, so for anyone reading this, thank you for your patience! Greece is one of my favorite places to visit, but this was my first time in Paros (and Naxos), so this isn’t so much my “recommendations” as much as […]
Traveling to Greece During Covid: What To Know (August 2021)
Hi guys! Before we get to the fun parts of my trip, a lot of people asked about the flying process and what the restrictions were like on the islands. Evidently a lot of you have planned trips to Greece, so here’s a bit about that, as well as my […]
Ace’s Pizza – Williamsburg, BK
For those of you who are new here, hi. Hello. I love pizza. I have it tattooed on my arm, to give you some more context. Pizza is the food that I can eat pretty much any time of day, and I never ever get sick of it. I can […]
Chicken Cutlet Sandwiches with Lemon-Basil Mayo
For me, few things are more enjoyable to eat than a simple chicken cutlet sandwich. Perfectly fried with those crisp, salty edges, topped off with lettuce, tomato, thinly sliced red onion, and in this case, lemon-basil mayo. How can you not love that? I’m fine with regular mayo honestly, but […]
Meatball Parm Phyllo Cups (Meatless)
Before I dive in, let me preface this by saying that you don’t have to use frozen meatballs for this, and you sure as shit don’t have to use meatless meatballs. I just have to watch my meat intake for health purposes, so here we are. THAT SAID. I’m not […]
Sweet & Spicy Pizza Wontons
Who doesn’t love pizza? And who doesn’t love wontons? These are the questions I asked myself before making these little guys. I was inspired by my love of Totinos Pizza Rolls, and wanted to try reinventing them with some different flavors. Enter: pizza with spicy honey. I mixed ricotta cheese […]
Make Progress, Then Make Eggs
During these last few months from hell, I’ve had little bursts of energy where I felt really good about myself. Believe me, no one is more shocked by that statement than me. I was so shocked that I actually started taking note of those times so I can analyze them […]
Coffee: The Panic Attack Whisperer
I know this is very upsetting, but hear me out. Because I love coffee, so if I’m saying this, you know there’s a reason. Last week, I attended a friend’s wedding in Jersey with friends I grew up with (some of whom I hadn’t seen since pre-pandemic) and had a […]
Best Pizza in NYC (2021)
I’ve written a few posts like this already, and I’m starting to wonder if I should even bother adding a date to it. Because at the end of the day, after all of my years eating pizza in this city, the top 5 don’t change much. That said, there are […]
