Vinny Vincenz Pizza Truck Review: Vinny Vincenz pizza truck and stupid dbags

After seeing Jonathan's post last week, I really wanted pizza. Last time I had pizza, it was at Artichoke with Steph. We tried their Sicilian slice and it was a mighty fine slice. Never have Sicilian slices caught my attention, but for the time being, I prefer those to regular slices. Also last week, there was a post about the Vinny Vincenz pizza truck on Midtown Lunch. Of course this meant that I had to try the Sicilian slice at the Vinny Vincenz pizza truck. They're parked in various locations in Manhattan and there's one by Union Square. When I walked by yesterday, the special of the day was two Sicilian slices for $4. Perfect! I plopped down four dollars and gave it a shot. When I had my first Sicilian slice at Artichoke, I was really satisfied with taste, and also because it was a...

Checkers Review: Checkers french fries and speaking freely

If you like fresh hamburgers grilled/griddled to order, then please turn away. If you like hand cut fries that come from real potatoes, I got nothing for you. But if you want 1700 calories of greasy goodness that's sure to kill you in fifty years? Well I got just the thing. Ever since they added calorie counts to the fast food menus, it's been a lot of fun to see how much you're getting when you think about getting two filet o fish or something. I went to the newly opened Checker's on Court street, and combo number one ranged from 1400 to 1700 calories. Since I requested my Fanta without ice, and since the cup was way too big to be just a 'medium', I probably got 1700 or more calories from lunch on Sunday. Of course three hours later I also went and...

After two months of being a parent, I can say that it doesn't get any easier! The food blogging pretty much has stopped but it's nice to take...

I hate vegetarians

Oh happy day! Last week I posted entries that were queued up in the backlog, and I went meatless for seven days, just for the hell of it. Two different friends tried to tell me that I cheated by eating eggs, but wikipedia says otherwise (Vegetarianism vs. Veganism). Seriously, if you took eggs out of the equation, you might as well just stab me in the heart. And I know no vegans read this blog, but you folks are crazy. How do you live without ice cream and cookies? A life of soy milk and granola is no life for me! Give me steaks or give me death!!! Although to the sure, the counter argument is that I am killing myself more rapidly by eating the likes of Bambi. Cholesterol schlesterol. We have technology likestents! Mmm...

Momofuku Milk Bar Review: Basketball and crack pie

My one-third life crisis is not yet over, although since the NBA Playoffs are about to end, my ability to watch sports this summer will be limited to tennis (Wimboldon and U.S. Open). And then it'll be time to be a bandwagon fan for the MLB Playoffs! hurray! I've been bad about the diet, but that's ok since I started to go outside more. Right now, I'm working on my 15 foot jumper. Man, it's hard to shoot a jump shot when you only get like two inches off of the ground. The timing of releasing a basketball at the apex of a 2 inch jump means that you start your motion probably even before your jump hits 1 inch off the ground. The whole mechanics of it is mind boggling. And then when some kid is like, "Hey mister, can I shoot with you?"...

The Breslin Review: Lamb burger at The Breslin

Tits and ass is the killer combo that many males love. Another combo that guys (and gals) love is burgers and fries. And yes I just started this post this way just to put T&A into the beginning of this post. Few weeks ago, Grub Street did a french fries post with Alain Ducasse and he listed The Breslin as having the top fries. I went to check out the burger this week because sometimes the only way to feel alive is make sure you're full and content after being satiated by the wonderful combo of tits and ass burgers and fries. First thing's first...
