Truffle, artichoke and Italian tomato sauce. The third was amazing. Artichoke and truffle were good at first. Not sure if I’ll voluntarily go to the place though. It’s not the restaurant, they’ve got good food and nice ambiance but not good enough food that I’d go once month or every 2 months. Restaurant: Tommy’s Lasagna,…

The Business Behind NYC’s Food-Truck Business
The food-truck business, I realized, is a classic case of bureaucratic inertia. The city has a right to weigh the interests of food-market owners (who don’t want food trucks blocking their windows) and diners (who deserve to know that their street meat is edible, and harmless). But many of the rules governing location were written…
Jack Crisps: Mexican Spring Rolls
Like the ones you get at chinese/thai restaurants but filled with cheese. And therefore, more delicious. Restaurant: margarita’s Concord, NH
Banana bread grilled cheese
I like the idea of brunch, especially in New York where restaurants have a nice vibe for brunch, outdoor seatings during the summer and a relaxed, yet bustling atmosphere. Unfortunately as a vegetarian their menu is very, and by that I mean very, limited. All you can conveniently get at all brunch places is a…
Biscuits with marmalade & butter
A Saturday afternoon at Central Park with a variety cuisines is definitely a well-spent Saturday. As part of our platter we had biscuits. These aren’t your usual off the shelf biscuits but like the ones Ruby Tuesday has. But bigger. With butter, orange and strawberry marmalade, these were biscuits were delightfully delicious. Restaurant: Jacob’s Pickle,…
Vegetarian Hot Dog
Street food at the South Sea Port in NYC. Argh, it was bad. Soy as a substitute for meat was the worst idea that humanity came up with.
Arepas: Colombian Grilled Cheese
The second most happening event in Concord, NH is a market fair on the downtown street. Among the very few vegetarian options was this Colombian version of a grilled cheese. Think of this as corn bread filled with cheese. It had some sweet taste due to the corn I guess, but interesting. PS: those were…
The Greek Dosa
At Hampton Chutney Co., they do some fun stuff with dosas. They have no sambar or rasam, but you don’t really miss it if you have such international variety of the dosa. Feta cheese, olives and onions, this dosa was different yet good.
Chocolate Beignets
Certainly among the best desserts I’ve had. Caramel dipping with vanilla ice cream with some strawberry sauce. Restaurant: Wolfgang Puck, Vegas
Pan Con Tomate Y Tres Salsas
My fascination with Tapas I had in Indianapolis forced me to try a tapas restaurant in NYC. Along with a Potato tapas, I ordered what is pictured below. If you ignore the name on the menu, it basically is 2 slices of bread topped with a garlic & tomato spread, served with 3 sauces (Tres…
