The 10 Best Dishes That I Ate in 2012
I know you’re probably sick of these end-of-the-year listicles, but after a year that took me all over the country, I just had to do a list of the 10 best dishes that I ate this year. I ate so much good food, in fact, that 2012 may very well have been the best eating…

The 10 Best Things That I Cooked in 2012
You’ve gotta admit, I cooked some really good things this year. So many, in fact, that narrowing this list down to ten took some work. But I’m confident that these ten dishes are the dishes that dazzled the most, the ones that made me pat myself on the back most vigorously, praising my myself in…

Anything Goes Salad
After my New York Public Library event with Deb Perelman (there were 230 people there!), I’m rethinking my whole blog.

Rustic Vegetable Ragu
Cooking without a recipe. How do you do it? You start with ingredients. My favorite way to do that is to open my refrigerator to see what’s there: on Friday night (when Craig was working late and his parents were flying in from Seattle) I saw carrots, I saw celery, I saw onions. I decided…

A Lebanese Sandwich at Porchetta and Pretzel Fries at Shopsin’s
I want to tell you about a sandwich. It’s a very special sandwich. You get it at a place famous for another special sandwich, but we’re not going to talk about that other special sandwich.

Mission Chinese Food and Pok Pok NY
Before I returned to New York this fall, I started a little folder in my browser called NYFood. I read my EaterNY, my Grub Street, and then bookmarked in my special folder any place I felt like I had to visit. Most prominent among my selections were Mission Chinese Food and Pok Pok NY. Both…
Excellent post! I found it both informative and easy to read. The explanations were clear, and the insights were extremely…
Please do not do that to me. I am happy to eat both at the same time from separate plates,…
