Perbacco, Scarpetta, & Dirt Candy
Somehow, in the past two weeks, I’ve eaten at three new and relevant New York restaurants. Instead of typing up three separate restaurant posts, I decided to make a video summarizing all three meals.

AGTV: Shop Like A Parisian
This week’s episode of AGTV finds us at the Union Square Greenmarket where a very special guest teaches us how to shop like a Parisian. Actually, the episode sort of loses it’s thread but you’ll have fun spending time with us as we jaunt around the market. Thanks to our guest, our cameraman (who makes…

AGTV: Latte Art
I am proud to announce a new ambitious venture here at The Amateur Gourmet: maybe I’m crazy, maybe I’m naive, but I am making a pact–signed in blood–to produce for you, my loving audience, a weekly video to be released each Wednesday for what will become our very own Amateur Gourmet food channel–AGTV.
