Pasticceria Bruno

After burgers at Five Guys, we wandered around, searching for a sweet ending to our savory meal.  We finally happened into Pasticceria Bruno, because it wasn’t super crowded on that Friday night, and because the space looked so yummy.  There were a ton of tarts and pastries behind the glass case, and the sign promised gelato… we were sold. HB opted for a passion fruit mini tart, which she enjoyed very much, though I didn’t ask her why or what made it so good.  I just know she liked it, and its small size was right for her since she [...]

Robicelli’s Gourmet Market (Bay Ridge)

As I mentioned recently, there was some Cupcake Wars and cupcakes to be had down in Bay Ridge!  I snagged the LTS BFF and we headed down… yes, we’re both nuts, 2 hours on the train each way to see about some cupcakes!  It turned out that we were both super glad we had~ before I even get to the cupcakes, I have to reveal – no, wait, I’ll hold off.  Wait, no.  Wait, yes.  Wait… sigh.  You’ll have to wait.  It adds to the suspense.  I was incredibly eager to try the tiramisu cupcake, since tiramisu is one of my [...]

Post-Meat Hiatus: First Meal

My first meal back eating meat.  What did I choose? A simple sausage, egg and cheese on a roll from my favorite breakfast place.  (The BF and I often stop there at the start of a road trip for our morning sustenance; I’m not sure how long he’s been going there but I’ve been going there for just under 6 years now.)  As you can see, I waited until I was on the plane and served juice alongside to consume it, so the cheese had melted and then congealed slightly by the time I ate it. Verdict?  While the sausage [...]

Walking Feast, Round 1

A few weeks back now, I met up with the lovely Rochelle of Sexy Girls Eat for a Walking Feast.  If you have to ask what a Walking Feast is, why are we friends?  I’m just teasing.  It is as simple – and as wonderful – as it sounds.  A feast while walking.  Admittedly, some of our feasting was done while seated, but the eating began around 1 pm and we didn’t part ways until 2 am.  The damage we could have done is far worse than actually was done – I was having issues and apologized profusely to the [...]
