Stogo Dairy Free Ice Cream
Last week my vegan gluten free girlfriend and I had a great time at the Big Apple Barbeque which I mentioned here. Well, I should say, she patiently watched me eat various smoked and grilled meats and smiled. To walk off some of those meaty delicious calories and as a thank you to her, we […]
New York Cabbies Don’t Lie About Curry Hill
You know the food is going to be good when all the local South Asian cabbies come to the Curry Hill neighborhood. Recommended places: Tiffin Wallah (127 E 28th between Lexington and Park), Saravana Bhavan (81 Lexington between @ East 26th st), and Curry Express (130 East 29th @ Lexington Avenue).
RoodonFood Presents an Interview with the Jims (Punk Rock + Food)
RoodonFood writes frequently about fast food, snacks and drinks. Turns out there is a band very fond of making jingles about fast food, snacks and drinks. Not to mention punk rock. They’re called the Jims and I first discovered their tribute jingles when writing about Pepperidge Farm Goldfish. Check out their youtube channel. They have […]
Daily Crave Veggie Chips
The Daily Crave Veggie Chips were purchased for $3 on sale at my local grocery store. The black and white newspaper theme of the package cleverly makes the chip color pop on the front. A new brand of veggie chip though and the price point is what made me pull the trigger though. Similar to […]
Bikaji Aloo Bhujia
One of my regular bhujia suppliers, Foods of India, was out of Haldiram’s Aloo Bhuija. I was able to battle back from sadness because luckily they carry Bikaji’s Aloo Bhujia as well. The bag size was 14.12 oz (400g) for $3.99. The ingredients are potato, gram flour, lentil flour, tapioca starch, salt, mango powder, chili, […]
Hellman’s Mayo, please get a new editor
I’m a fan of Hellman’s Mayonnaise but the newest commercial has a serious faux pas. Take a look here and see if you can catch it. You see a nice montage of all the ingredients in a BLT: Toast pops out, bacon sizzles on the pan, tomato and romaine lettuce are sliced, the male lead […]
Update 2: Big Apple BBQ or Don’t Judge Me, I’m Enjoying BBQ
I stopped by at the Big Apple BBQ for Day 2. Please don’t judge me. For Day 2 I wanted to check out Big Bob Gibson’s championship BBQ. The wait was 20 minutes but it moved quickly. He served pulled pork with an amazing smoky, tangy red sauce. It was setup so that you get […]
Teddy Bear Coffee Cup Lid
Not much to add. I got a kick out of this silly coffee cup lid. Coffee never ceases to amaze. It pairs with any sweet. Case in point, I had this coffee to cut the sweetness of a simple hot fudge sundae on the Asbury Park boardwalk. Good times.
Updated: Big Apple BBQ in Madison Square Park NYC
I just got back from the Big Apple BBQ. It was a great time. As mentioned in the last post, plates are $8. All of the stands give you a decent portion of meat and a small side such as coleslaw, baked beans or pork rinds. Some of the lines were long but go by […]
Herr’s Dark Russet Kettle Cooked Potato Chips
This brand is always worth it for the name alone. When I read the name “Herr’s” I’m tempted to pronounce it “Hurr” like southern rappers. For example: Lets get a bag of Hurr’s Chips up in Hurr. I instantly regret writing that. Please accept my apology. Actual Review: The Pennsylvania Fertile Snack Belt continues its […]
