New York Bakery Review: New York Bakery and epic running fail
When I first saw the sign that said "New York Bakery", I was really intrigued. A bakery! It's named after the city! How could I have been in the dark about this? I had to investigate. Upon investigation, the first thing I learned was that New York Bakery wasn't a bakery at all. They have some baked goods, depending on whether you visit the store before they sell out. But it's just mass produced baked goods wrapped in plastic. You can find the same kind of baked goods at many of the Japanese or Korean grocery stores like Sunrise Mart. What does New York Bakery have if they don't have baked goods? Spanish/Latin/Korean food. I like the gimmick of a place with a name like New York Bakery serving tacos instead of bread. The best part is that a Korean guy runs the place, and he...

Rant posts on Food in Mouth
I am a dad now! It's only been about a month, and it's as surreal to write that now was it was when my son first came into the world. Being parents to a newborn is fucking hard. That's the part in the fine print of the parent instruction manual that probably isn't as talked about. Eating out at restaurants has taken a backseat to keeping a tiny human alive. So essentially my son has become cockblock to foodinmouth! So inconsiderate!...

Taiwanese pastries and the wonders of the mung bean cake
The other day I heard about this new book out that's supposed to help you order the special stuff when you go to an Asian restaurant. The 'special' stuff is generally the menu that's written without any English on it. I'm not sure if this kind of stuff goes on in Chinatown here in Manhattan, but I know this is the case at many Chinese restaurants in suburbia. If you're Asian, you know exactly the reasoning behind such a move. There are times when you eat something Asian-y and it's not that weird or crazy but you say to yourself, "White people won't eat this shit." If you're non-Asian and that offended you, oh wellz. If you're Asian, you know exactly what I'm talking about. For example, I think tripe is delicious, but I even know Chinese people who don't like tripe. And if you...

I wonder how good is the average bagel in a city outside of New York City. While we had ice cream from Luca and Bosco, my fatty side got the better of me and I started to think that more dairy products would be good. That and a slow but steady stream of folks kept going up to Davidovich Bagels for stuff. When we lived in Washington Heights, there weren't that many bagel places. There was one by the hospital because the truth was that the people who would buy bagels the most would be near the hospital in that neighborhood. So I know that in another city, there probably won't be bagels. Time to start eating a ton...
