After Dok Suni and Mock Your World, dessert to end the evening on a sweet note – since we were nearby, I took DLS to Veniero’s, one of my favorite Italian bakeries. DLS ordered the fruit tart, which looked really tasty… but I didn’t try any. As I told him on the spot – fruit tarts are for boring people! I’m anything but boring. Since I’ve written about Veniero’s quite a bit already, I wrote this post mostly just to show off this photo. I ordered the pistachio tulip or something… I just pointed at the picture they had in [...]

I wound up having a long conversation with one of the guys working there while they made my wafel fresh… they were both very cool and fun to talk to, but of course, held my wafel hostage! Yes… come to me, my preciousss A BACON WAFEL! with [...]

Maybe you’ve heard of this project going on called 93 Plates? No? Well, here’s a link explaining what it is Essentially, The Wandering Foodie has been eating his way around NYC – 3 meals a day, blogging about it, and inviting other food bloggers to join him. I’m currently sitting next to him in Starbucks, blogging our breakfast (if you can call it that… you know I am a savory foods kind of gal when it comes to breakfast!), while he catches up in posts (it is NOT easy to blog concurrently with eating; that’s one of the reasons I [...]
