NESPRESSO PIXIE with Ted Allen and Pixie Lott
Dear Food Diary:
As a food blogger I get invited to a variety of events, not all of them turn out to be worth my time, but this last Nespresso private media event at their Soho Boutique was an awesome one.
Empellon: Alex is hot, the food not so much
Dear Food Diary:
I’ve been a long time fan (ok, fine. I’ll admit… stalker) of hottie pastry Chef Alex Stupak. My delicious love affair started at the Bon Appetit Supper Club Cafe back in ’09. He won me over with his Yuzu Tart. And then it escalated during my WD 50 visit, where I met him *wink*. So you can understand why Empellon naturally got bumped to the top spot on my infinite list of NYC eateries.
The Breslin: Love at first bite… Whole Sucking Pig
“Oh little piggy, how I love thee. Thy luscious crisp skin and thy tender, moist and juicy nourishing flesh” (drooling as I’m reciting… hard to concentrate).
Dear Food Diary:
This was an epic dinner months in the making. Back in Feb, when I met Gypsy-Addie at a blogger’s dinner for the first time, we instantly hit it off and planned for this feast. It took months of going back and forth over emails. Getting 8 piggy-vores together on the same night, while making sure The Breslin could accommodate us before 10 PM wasn’t easy. But numerous calls and emails later, we signed the contract and were ready as ever!!!
Dining on the L train
I don’t take the L train often, actually ever! But if I had to, I’d pay $100 for this yummy ride!!! Awesome idea, even in a city where there’s seems to be everything! LOVE IT!!! read more about it on a razor, a shiny knife
