  1. The original write-up identifies the commercial soda, as much a tarragon lemonade* as Fanta is orange juice. I'm not sure if the flourish in the best-of list was added by forgetful humans or an LLM. Why would LVD be shadow banned? Is the times still upset that they let Priya wait? * traditionally made sparkling and weirdly Georgian by mixing lemon juice and baking soda
  2. I think Foxface sandwiches was the first of those, and I don't think it was a restaurant.
  3. Gives the impression that there aren't 100 proper restaurants in nyc that are any good. Is that true? Anyway, a very weird list indeed.
  4. Also sperm oil is made from whale as it was found to be far more efficient than the other way!
  5. Also the vinegar, and of course the money.
  6. I thought it's been eradicated in this country
  7. The children didn't go to college (drinking school) and before college they're more closely monitored than ever before. They also have access to very cheap and effective drugs that make a martini seem like an incredibly expensive way to get a buzz on. The serious eaters and drinkers are on GLP-1, boomers are at an age when their doctor asks them to be kinder to their liver, bankers are running away from nyc, journos (as heavy on booze as on coke) no longer exist, people read just sufficiently many word to believe that if they drink at all they will die of ass cancer on the spot.

    Eater

    You were heard - the PR food is Iberian and Brazilian!
  9. Remember Le Coq Rico?
  10. It is very surprising given how emblematic it is to see the chickens spinning over potatoes in any Jewish town.
  11. Well... I wonder how the amex Blackbird resy tock thing is going to work out.

    Corner Bar

    Is she running the place now? I didn't hear anything about that

    Corner Bar

    It's been closed for 2 years now.
  14. So there's someone who doesn't know why online recipes are written this way?

    My Salt Problem

    I think it's just how recipes are written these days - a series of precise steps meant to deliver consistent results, followed by "...then grab a fistful of finishing salt and, without thinking, drop it over the perfectly fine plate of food"
  16. Maybe jgv is too busy marketing his preconstruction condos in Miami...
  17. Then you don't have the money!
  18. Way underpriced, sold out in 15 seconds

    Algae Oil

    Expensive refined frying oil for the brain worm crowd.
  20. Hakodate seafood is a hoot of course. Make sure to dump the kids for some bar hopping in susukino.
  21. I don't think you need a car. There are quick train rides to otaru and asahikawa at least and likely easy tour busses if you want to go further out. Maybe there's a nice onsen around lake toya?

    maine uni

    Since all the trays and brine packed uni you get from Maine are likely from the same processor, it all depends on how long it's been with the distributor and more importantly - on how much your local UPS/FedEx driver likes to kick things around just for fun...
  23. This includes tax, an administrative fee (what?), a hospitality fee (???), and wine!
  24. We're already over 2% into the year and nobody's used nuclear weapons!
  25. A mystery indeed.
