I left my heart and confused my brain! San Francisco definitely has my heart. I consider it the only other place I have really lived other than NY. I sometimes dream of moving back for the landscape, weather and food. Unfortunately my hyper active, NYC brain quickly reminds me that I love NY for...
Tweet this! It all started a few months back over some stiff drinks and a few oysters. Three food fanatics, me one of them, sipped and slurped as we brainstormed dinner themes. As the night grew longer the ideas piled up. Some good, some bad. As a counter idea to the unique but crazy thought of an...
Sinning and loving it. This is a hard one to write. By know means will this even scratch the surface of what you can eat in Vegas. These days it’s a veritable who’s who of celebrity chef establishments competing for the attention of tourists rich and budget conscious. This trip had me locked...
I realized I’ve had quite a few great bowls of pasta lately. I thought I’d take a moment and share some of the best in this quickie food porn post. I’ll try and do more of these as I turn my Instagram obsession back towards this blog. That damn app is like candy rigatoni. You just...
Two days ago the Giants lost their season opener to the Dallas Cowboys. An unfortunate start to the season and a topic I know little about. The fortunate part of the day was the play by play meat fest that came across my iPhone as the two fools below tailgated them selves into a protein and bacon...
Parlez vous manger! Possibly one of the greatest eating cities in the world, Montreal boasts tasty everywhere you look. The French influence makes things more decadent yet the Quebecois keeps it casual. Believe it or not this was my first time to Montreal. For a guy who has been to far flung...
This past weekend turned into a full on assault of the market, the kitchen and the stomach. The highlight was definitely the pig. Knowing I had 20ish people stopping by on Saturday afternoon I spent Friday afternoon procuring one of the finest and most delicately butchered pieces of meat you can...
The Forking Tasty test kitchen is heating up for September. Some how we found ourselves in the planning phase of three dinners. The trio includes a continuation of the Italian season, an all poultry dinner and King Kong which will take place in a very special location. With no time to waste...
This is exciting. Some smart food friendly friends of ours gave us a call last week to tell us about a project they are working on. We loved it so much that we persuaded them to let us try it out before the rest of the world (it just launched this week!). What does this have to do with...
You talkin’ to me? The season 4 opener of REEL TASTY was quite the oasis of an evening. It may have taken us a while to get going this year but we kicked off with a bang. The night itself was an unexpected 84 degree evening complete with a slight breeze. Sandwiched between two blistering hot weeks...
This post is one I’ve been meaning to finish since my trip to London a few months ago. I figured with the opening ceremonies upon us it was a great time to pop in a recommendation for those of you Olympic bound. It was one of the last days of our trip and we woke early to make the journey out...
It’s been a while since a post. You may have wondered what we’ve been up to. The above video explains it all but for those of you who can’t bring yourself to watch 3 minutes of fun, bike and food content here’s the skinny. Last year we threw our first Bike-In-Theater in...
It’s Canada Day where I am writing this from. I am watching Italy play Spain in the EuroCup final while snacking on my mother-in-laws amazing food. Above is my delicious tandoori chicken lunch. It doesn’t get much more multi-cultural-fantastic than this. I just hope these guys lose ...
Souptown – Orderville, Utah A random stop on state road 89 on the back side of Zion national park. What a find! About ‘Wich Hunting: Anthony and I have travelled the world eating everything from Balut in the Philippines to blood sausage in Argentina. In every destination there has...
I am probably the last person in New York to have tasted some of the Torrisi mini-empire’s treats. As of a few weeks ago that’s no longer the case. Plus, I entered the “I’ve had it” club in a way that puts me in the small category of those who’ve enjoyed their 21...
This past Sunday was NYC’s annual Puerto Rican day parade. Arguably the biggest and best parade of the summer in my opinion. Interestingly, all the flags and Boriquan pride reminded me it was a good time to eat some cupcakes. There has been a fantastic new comer to the overexposed, uber trendy...
