Happy Birthday, Yvo!

October 27, 2010 by Feisty Foodie 33 Comments

I turned 30 at 7:28am today.  Instead of working on posts (oops! sorry!), I’ve been running around celebrating (and yes, you’ll see pictures of my wonderful meals).  No post for today, but a question – and as a birthday gift to me, please indulge me! –

What has been your very favorite and/or standout post on the Feisty Foodie?  A link would be nice, but isn’t entirely necessary – but at least a description of the post and what made it standout, if you can’t remember the title or restaurant name…

Thanks so much!  Have a fabulous Wednesday, everyone!

    My favorite is this post about your trip to Peru (for obvious reasons): http://feistyfoodie.com/2010/06/17/peru-granja-heidi-restaurant/

    Otherwise I really like this post about the first potluck because of all the food and the last pic of food babies: http://feistyfoodie.com/2010/05/03/midtown-lunch-bunch-rooftop-potluck/

      Our potlucks are pretty ridiculous! And that pic of the food babies is… cringe-worthy 😉

    So many good ones! Clearly the Cheesesteak Chowdown is a favorite, but the Super Sunday Suppers (what happened to those?): http://cc6.016.myftpupload.com//index.php?s=super+sunday+supper and http://feistyfoodie.com/2010/03/19/recipe-fridays-super-supper-sunday-1/, the West Coast trip: Salumi in Seattle, the Oakland farmer’s market, Chez Panisse, all wonderful pictures and mouth-watering writeups.

      Funny, those are all posts I had so much fun doing the activities that led to the write-ups, that probably shows through clearly when I’m writing about them. 🙂

    I really enjoy your writing and I love the fact that you are a straightshooter. Been reading your blog for some time though never commented as I am quite shy in the blogging world…but since today is your birthday, I really want to say that you are doing an awesome job, and hope that you enjoy your birthday and get to eat lots and lots of delicious food!

    This post with the crab guts over the noodles.. OMG! I just had to have it.. and after my first visit, Canton Gourmet became been one of my favorite restaurants in Flushing. Not only for the crabs but many of the dishes they offer are delicious!

      Canton Gourmet is definitely the real deal! I loved this request I made and am so happy with everyone’s responses – when I read yours (via email, I wasn’t at a computer at the time), I knew immediately what photo you meant – glistening noodles, green crab guts, omg, so good… Mmm!!!

    I don’t have one favorite post because there’s a ton that stick out. I know when my husband and I were going to Morimoto’s and Nobu the first thing I did was check out your site for reviews on what to get/what to avoid.

    Happy (belated) Birthday Yvo! I’ve been thinking about this for the last 2 days… and I would have to agree with Hungry and Beer Boor – I loved the Potluck write-up and miss your Sunday Suppers! Although I have been enjoying your recent Bento-box write-ups! Keep up the great work!

      Thanks CT! The potlucks are so much fun to put together and attend… now that the weather is turning, Sunday Suppers should start up again 🙂
