Filet o Fish is buy one get one free now
Filet o Fish is back! That's right, better than ever. Actually that's not true. Since it's McDonald's, it's probably same as before because they're robotic and precise like that. I'm not sure what inflation was last year, but if it was like 4% the way it was during the awesome times, I would bet the sandwich gets 4% smaller. But seeing as inflation isn't doing much lately, I'm going to assume the 2012 incarnation of Filet o Fish is exactly like last year's. In the New York City the deal we get is buy one get one free. At the one nearest to me, that came out to $4.13 tax-included. And if you use a points credit card that values points at around a penny per point and one dollar = one point, the deal is even better because then it's $4.09. Do I count...

Ranting about the idea of delicious
One thing you should know about me is that there's nothing I love more than shitting on Tennessee. It's something about growing up there and being a resentful little runt. Seeing things like Memphis in May on Serious Eats, sort of made me wish that I explored the Volunteer State more when I had the chance. Damn those redneck racists and dirt country roads from preventing me from doing all that's good and awesome. One day I hope to rectify that personal mistake, but in the meantime, that article did stir up another thought in my mind...

Weight loss is hard
Recently I did some research about heel strikes. What the hell is a hell strike? That's what runners talk about when they talk about running form, and whether your heel should hit the ground in your strides. Apparently you don't want to do that because hell strikes will cause unnecessary pounding on your body. And landing on the front to middle of your feet is good because the arch of your feet is naturally built to absorb pressure. Think of shocks on a car. Heel strikes also reduce your speed because you slow down. See, this is the kind of research I do about running, because running SUCKS. It's absolutely the best way to lose weight, but it sucks so bad. As for losing weight, it's really come to a halt, and that's why I'm trying to get into running. Losing weight is just not working...

Banh Mi Saigon Review: Banh Mi Saigon and stuff you can skip over
When people around you tell me to stop drinking so much haterade, I listen. Because life is short, and it's more important to be happy and eat chocolate. Lately there's a lot of pre-Easter candy on sale and mmmm.. my belly is full. When I'm not eating chocolate or drinking haterade, lately I've been eating a lot of sandwiches, banh mi's to be exact. Whether it's Hanco's in Park Slope or Saigon Vietnamese Sandwich in Chinatown or a catfish sandwich from Baoguette, my life is just full of sandwiches. Well, I can't get enough of a good thing. This past weekend I ventured inside of a jewelry store, and found Banh Mi Saigon. This was actually my first return trip to Banh Mi Saigon in about three or four years. It was one of my favorites after my friends introduced me to banh mi sandwiches. Then,...

Momofuku Ssam Bar Review: Momofuku Saam Bar
Momofuku Saam Bar was the highly anticipated follow-up for chef David Chang. He has won James Beard awards and basically has become the darling chef of the New York. I was curious about the hype and visited in the day, when the lunch menu included the saam, which is basically an awesome Asian burrito. After consumption of said burrito, I could only agree with Midtown lunch, a branch of the saam bar would be great all over the city, especially in midtown. For about $10 dollars, the Momofuku saam was not cheap by absolute measures. However, their burrito was probably one of the most unique burritos I have ever had. The ingredients list was as follows: rice, hoisin, edamame, roasted onions, kimchee puree, pickled shitake mushrooms, and pork. In addition to the uniqueness, the saam was also ginormous. (Yes, that's a real word). Given all the...
