The Barking Crab – Newport R.I. from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. I recently jumped on the Eurodam to visit Kelsey for a few days. I got on in New York and left in Boston. On the way we stopped by Newport Road Island. We wanted to go check out a few mansions that day but got caught up on the...
An SF friend I have not caught up with in a while is my buddy Andrew. Sharing a love for all things tasty, pretty and new, he took the liberty of making a reservation for us at Wexler’s. Wexler’s is the new upscale BBQ spot in downtown San Francisco. I am going to let the pictures and food...
So if my last LA post was the LA I love to mock, this is the LA I love to miss. I was in Hollywood refusing to valet my car on my way to meet my friend Marc and Jonell for some dinner. Both NY transplants, I had no doubt that the place Mark suggested would have a touch of east coast to its vibe and...
I don’t get to LA very often and when I do I usually seek out a dose of the infamous LA scene. It’s not that hard to find, especially if you know where to look. I rolled into town late last Tuesday to give a talk on Social Media to an internal Yahoo! audience. Also in town was an old colleague...
I took some time the other morning to have a business/personal breakfast with my friend Jeff. Jeff has been a long time Billyburg resident and a comrade in food talk. Earlier in the week Jeff introduced me to Ben over at Rooftop Farms where he volunteers on Thursdays. We decided to meet in the Burg...
A few days ago a giant, man-eating shark visited the deck along with 17 dinner guests. Our fourth dinner this summer was another beautiful evening. Some old faces mixed with a few new ones made for a great evening. We started off with some snacks. We brought back a favorite of ours with the London...
I just had to do a post about this deli. Great name and friendly owner. It sits on Howard and 6th st. in San Fran, a block from the hotel I was staying at. I visited each morning to get a large, hot coffee before starting the daily drive down to silicon valley. Each day the owner said hello, and...
Citi Field is home of the New York Mets and is a beautiful stadium. Last night was my first time there and my 3 friends wanted to break me in (Tim, Seth, & Brian). All are Met fans but me. Yankees all the way! They showed me around the stadium and we went right for the good stuff, the food of...
Cooks – Dover England from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. For the second time with in a week on the ship we were back in Dover, England. This time the weather was not so good. Kelsey and I walked around town a bit to find some lunch. At first we sat in the park and looked at the castle that...
This is probably the most real time post I have done to date. I just landed in San Jose California. I was hungry. I went straight to In ‘N Out and wacked down this Double-Double, Fries and a Coke. Yes a coke! I don’t even drink that stuff. Super indulgence. Since I am still on NY time...
La Via Romana – Dover England from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. It was a really nice afternoon in Dover England and for some reason there was no shuttle from the ship to town so we had to walk. It was a nice day out so it was ok. When we got to town we found a small pub and relaxed outside with...
Alex – Keil, Germany from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. Kelsey and I had been to Kiel Germany a bunch of times but never went anywhere special because it was always raining. For my last visit to Kiel the sun finally decided to shine. We walked through town and the first thing we were looking for...
Belgium from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. Belgium waffles are widely known across America and probably the world. On my last cruise I had one day in Belgium and I was not going to miss the opportunity to have Belgium Waffles in Belgium. We set out in a nice size crew looking for a waffle house for...
London in Sweden from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. After eating a terrible burger experience in Stockholm Sweden I looked around town for some traditional Swedish meatballs. I found them in a restaurant called London. At first the women behind the bar was not going to give me the Swedish meatballs....
Max – Sweden from Anthony Anello on Vimeo. I have been to Stockholm Sweden a bunch of time and some of my friends raved about this local burger joint called Max. Now I am a huge burger fan. A good burger is definitely in my top 3 meals to eat. Some say I am a burger connoisseur because I...
As tradition states, brunch at the Rubine house has a few must have elements. One, fresh bagels. Two, fresh smoked fish. Three, fresh conversation. Being raised Italian it was up to Seth and the Rubine family to school me in the way of the Hebrews. My surrogate family has welcomed me in with such...
