Opening Day 2010 is today; what’s more fitting than sharing all the tricks I picked up eating through CitiField last season? Fortunately, as a plan ticket holder, I was invited to attend a pre-season workout on Sunday, with the Taste of the City concessions open for fan enjoyment. Unfortunately, many of the tips/tricks that I wanted to share as a “What to Eat Around CitiField” have turned out to be somewhat obsolete now… BOO. But first, my time at CitiField previewing: first up as you walk into the Jackie Robinson Rotunda, the new Hall of Fame museum! It is directly [...]

(What, did you think because it’s my blog-birthday, I wouldn’t post?! Silly people…) The season is over in a few days, though for many Mets fans, the season’s been over for quite a while now. I wrote parts of this a while back, but hadn’t a chance to post it. With one last homestand this weekend, maybe it will help you decide what to eat as you mourn the passing of yet another season. Maybe not. I won’t be at this weekend’s games, but I will be back next year. See you around, Citi Field. I will definitely be following [...]

“Let’s go Nats” sounds an awful lot like “Let’s go Mets” doesn’t it? It’s no secret how much I love baseball. Perhaps slightly lesser known is my desire to visit - and eat some amazing ballpark food from – each and every one of the 29 MLB stadiums around the country (and one in Canada)… and blog about each stadium and its food (of course!). In any case, I started the journey timidly back in May, with a trip to PNC Park in Pittsburgh with my boyfriend. It was a good trip, but I couldn’t help but wonder how much MORE I [...]
Citi Field: Nachos Grande and Taqueria

June 22, 2009. St. Louis Cardinals v. New York Mets. Another game. Another photograph of David Wright’s first at-bat. (I have a collection starting from last season continuing through this year to the games I’ve attended.) We won this game. As it was a night game post-work, I didn’t want to eat too much. It was slightly chilly – this season has yet to warm up, still – so I grabbed a jacket and headed to the Nachos Grande stand (the one on promenade level close to the elevators by right field as you come up). The menu. I find [...]

This post is going to physically hurt me to write this. Not because of the sunburn I received while sitting in left field by the foul post, not because I stupidly forgot to take a photo of the outside of Yankee Stadium (although, to be honest, there didn’t seem to be a good angle at which to take the photo – Citi Field, as soon as you come off the train station, there it looms large in front of you and everyone takes this photo – besides, the new stadium looks almost exactly like the old one… all concrete…), but [...]
