Editor’s note: updated post for 2018 Once again, I will use another made up social media holiday as an excuse to give you some of my favorite pasta recommendations. The below are in no particular order, but you should know that my personal faves are the pomodoro pasta from Scarpetta, […]

5 Best Sleeper Burgers in NYC
The definition of “sleeper” when used in this context, is “something that’s an unexpected success”. So when I say “sleeper burger”, I mean burgers that are delicious but fly under the radar at places you wouldn’t expect. Not burgers that will put you to sleep. Just wanted to be clear […]
In Defense of Dominos, Taco Bell, and Olive Garden
Over the weekend, I ate a plethora of shitty chain food. And when I say shitty, you should know I mean “delicious”, at least by my standards. After receiving some rather unkind comments on social media, it led me to address a particular issue when it comes to food preferences. […]
Happy Memorial Day! Top 9 Burgers for National Burger Day
Just when you thought the day couldn’t get any more meaningful, they make it fall on the same day as National Burger Day. In all seriousness, let’s not divert from the fact that this is a day where we should reflect on those who lost their limbs, lives, and loved […]
Judging The Taco Takeover 2018
Eating and judging. Can you think of something I like doing more? The answer is no, you cannot. When I was asked to be a judge for the 2018 Taco Takeover at the Brooklyn Expo Center, I jumped at the opportunity. A day filled with tacos, tequila, and churros? And […]
Dinner at: Primal Cut
Hello darkness, my old friend. In this case, darkness is being played by Primal Cut. Formerly known as Prime 333, Primal Cut is the steakhouse inside Sapphire NY, the “Gentlemen’s Club”, if you will. What was I doing in there? Well, I’m a gentleman and a scholar. Obviously. In truth, […]
New for 2018 at Citifield
As a Mets fan, you know there’s one thing we’re used to: Heartbreak. So…when the snow came down on NYC (on the 2nd day of Spring, mind you), I was worried that they were going to cancel the Press Preview of Citifield. I went last year and it was roughly […]
SOBEWFF 2018, Part I
I feel like this story is best told through photos and videos, but I like to write so here goes. I’ve been attending the South Beach Wine & Food Festival every year for the past 4 years, and it’s honestly one of my favorite weeks of the year. The weather […]
In Honor of #NationalPizzaDay
Let’s eat pizza. I think that’s the best way to celebrate, isn’t it? But, since you can’t actually pick up your computer and eat it like a pizza…I guess these photos will have to suffice. I went through my feed and grabbed the pics from every pizza place I went […]
Happy Hour at: Bodega Negra
Ahhh happy hour. A classic pastime for 9-5’ers, 10-6’ers, and basically anyone who works in an office. Truthfully, you don’t have to be a disgruntled publishing minion to reap the benefits of a good HH special. I work for myself and I can always feel my tongue getting dry from […]
