WWF Sustainable Seafood Festival 2014 – Pick The Right Catch Cooking Class
All the cooking I’ve done recently has consisted of either slapping some steak onto a pan or tossing together fridge food to be microwaved – which is to say not much cooking at all. Things have...

Italy, Genoa 2012: Gran Ristoro – 150 types of Panini
’150 tipi di panini’, boasts a sign outside Gran Ristoro. A rudimentary estimation (mine, of course) puts the figure a little closer to 10,000 types of panini, given a choice of two ingredients with...

Italy, Genoa 2012: Rosmarino Trattoria
Recent late-night photo editing of last year’s travels has seized me with what I’d like to call Gastro-nostalgia: that wistful recollection of a wholly satisfying meal, made memorable by a combination...

New York City 2012: Dominique Ansel Bakery
The sidewalks of Soho are seasoned by the pounding footsteps of thousands of tourists and locals alike, filtering into fashion boutiques like the tributaries of a constant river. Soho is, first and...

New York City 2012: Four & Twenty Blackbirds
I was just talking to a friend about pies the other day, about how there seems to be a dearth in places selling traditional hand-made pies – pies the kind your grandmother would make (if she was...

New York City 2012: Bánh Mì Zòn – Wicked Vietnamese Sandwiches
I’m in the midst of hammering out a proper article. I’m experiencing full-blown Hamster Complex (you know, the one where you want to destroy something you’ve created?), and should stop before I trash...

New York City 2012: Taïm – Best Falafel Sandwich
The pair of degenerates featured in this picture of Taïm’s shopfront refused to step out of my camera frame. They also happen to be my accomplices – or, well, ‘friends’ if I must be so kind as to...

New York City 2012: Wafels & Dinges
This honking yellow beauty was the stuff of my dreams ever since I watched an episode on the Food Network about the best food trucks in NYC. Just the idea of buying food from a food truck seemed...

New York City 2012: Porchetta
Porchetta – the single, most carnal name ever allowed to grace a meat dish. So if you happen to name your establishment after the hallowed Italian Roast Pork Of The Gods, I’m going to expect choirs of...

New York City 2012: Shake Shack
This probably needs no further elaboration from me. Even if it does, a quick Google search should suffice. I’m lazy, and weaving together repeated bits of information into a paragraph free from...

Browned Butter Cinnamon Sugar Bombs
I’ve created a monster. Well, mini monsters, fun-sized gremlins on crack. I must admit, the only reason I’m actually punching out a recipe post after ages of my last one is because I need to quickly...

New York 2012: Brooklyn Bagel & Coffee Company
Since I started on bagels, I might as well go the whole nine yards. I’m aware that my less-than-qualified commentary on New York’s bagels is like dancing across a field of land-mines. Naked. But in...

New York 2012: Absolute Bagels
I hadn’t physically spoken to anyone in two days. Not even after settling into Morningside Heights. In fact, especially after settling into Morningside Heights. It’s quiet here in the evenings. I also...

Koh Grill & Sushi Bar – Eye on the Maki
Rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated. I am alive and well, much to the disappointment of many, I’m sure. This writer’s block of mine, however, I have underestimated. I had likened it to...

Le Bistrot du Sommelier – Reliable Bistro Fare
It’s been a while. I’m aware that I’m not quite done waxing lyrical about Dario Cecchini, but I recently had great French bistro food, so this bears much gushing. Brace yourself. If I were to let it...

Dario Cecchini – The Dante-reciting, Rock-star Butcher of Italy
One step into Antica Macelleria Cecchini and I’m already gaping. It’s all marble, massive oaken butcher blocks, hanging meat hooks, crackling rolls of porchetta, links of aged salami suspended over...

Japan, Tokyo 2011-12: Ichiran Ramen
Ramen. It’s the one dish to nuke your diet so far out of the water you’re going to need binoculars to see where it went. It’s the one dish that, in my opinion, throws the entire Japanese diet into...

Tokyo, Japan 2011-12: Sushi Zanmai
24-hour chain restaurants are deigned to be viewed with no less disdain as mass-produced pink slime. Such places don’t seem to possess any redeeming factors. You don’t need intricate knowledge of the...
