Former site of Alleva Dairy.

Ew.

i’m not really curious about this except to wonder at how the mighty have fallen. and…i just adore agedashi tofu…but i don’t know anyone who would be into an agedashi hot dog.

Mr. Humm said he was “ecstatic” with the results. “The one thing we said we wanted it to be is a place of joy, of people coming together,” said Mr. Humm, who gave the artist no other parameters. The chef likes that people will read different meanings in the paintings as they enjoy inventive cocktails, such as “5th Leaf” with Suyo quebranta pisco, smoked sunchoke, pear and shiso, and plant-based versions of finger food including tempura fries, sake pickles and an agedashi tofu dog.

A place of joy and people coming together as long as they are people who will spend eye-watering amounts of money on plants and booze.

I assume Humm’s fast food bowl place in midtown closed?

EMP’s fast casual place was Made Nice, on E. 28th St. Menu was much broader than food bowls. Closed in 2020.

Curious where folks have enjoyed good meals lately, aside from the 3-4 places we talk seem to talk about here regularly.

Cozy Royal in Williamsburg. Ci Siamo has been consistently good. Rule of Thirds in Greenpoint

Yeah.  Not that good. 

We had a delivery from them during pandemic and while the rapturous online buzz was definitely overstated in regards to how good the bird was I seem to remember it came with a fried rice that was EXCELLENT

This made me think. I no longer eat out two or three times a week. Since the occasions are fewer (and I long since stopped blogging) I tend to go back to places I know I like. And because I always post, they get discussed here a lot.

Le Veau d’Or was different.

eater had an advertorial for fall openings early this week. I think there was one place on the list where I was like "I would try that" without even the curve of "oh - I live in the suburbs" it was shocking.

Also I think its entertaining reading the Reddit FoodNYC and seeing a few people get to the emperor's new clothes stage with some of the favorites there.

It definitely has been good every time we've eaten there, and I just made a res for late September.
