We took every seat in the place.
I’m writing this up really quickly before dashing to Penn to catch my beloved Acela, but I wanted to make note of the most successful (in terms of attendance) $20/D dinner yet before shoving off to the Cape for nine … Continue reading

A hard night’s fatteh.
Late night hunger pangs got you wondering if there’s an alternative to ordering from Bedouin Tent for the billionth time? That’s where I was last night, anyway. I love the Tent, and their delivery times (avg: ten minutes, for pete’s sake) can’t … Continue reading

The Nascent brings Baked goods, coffee to my corner.
Normally I wouldn’t flip over a coffee shop, but this one’s too cool and conveniently-located (to me) not to give a shout out to: The Nascent, located at Bergen St. and Nevins St. in Boerum Hill, has recently begun operations. Previously, … Continue reading
Nine months and a day later…fifty tales of mystery and exploration.
Last night, I attempted to make a visit to the city’s most prominent (only?) Tajik eatery, Dushanbe. Regrettably (for them, especially), I found no sign of a restaurant with that name at 1915 Coney Island Avenue – what I did find … Continue reading

Bushwick observations and gastronomic sensations.
“Bullet Bushwick.” At least, that’s what my friend Izzy used to call it. It was usually as a punch line to some kind of commentary about how his financial circumstances would lead him to only be able to afford to live out … Continue reading
Eats, records at EAT Records.
Ever been shopping for records on a hot, sticky weekend day and wish you could just take a quick pause midway through the “J” section and have a bite? The owners of EAT Records, on Meserole Street in Greenpoint, hope so, … Continue reading

Gut, besser, Gösser.
Last night’s dinner, a group affair at Park Slope’s Café Steinhof, was probably more notable for its beer than its food. That’s not to say that the food at Steinhof is bad – quite the contrary. But there’s still a great thrill … Continue reading
