Restaurant Grades and Wendys and giveaway
In grade school, sometimes they would invite these "motivational speakers" to come in, tell us to persevere in life, stay off of LSD, and try not to start families before we're legally allowed to smoke. One of those stupid things that schools like to do and pretend that it has an effect on kids. But an example of something they would say to us to try and be better people would be like, "Do only the things that you'd do if your mother was behind you watching what you do." Silly speakers...

Fat child haiku and a food policy for Obama
The haiku this week sort of describes me, minus the wild part and the fried pickle part. I was indeed a fat child, but fried pickles were never really part of my diet. This year I'm going to try to eat more vegetables and fruits though, instead of just cupcakes, burgers, or bacon. But mmmm...

Wu Liang Ye Review: Wu Liang Ye
I had been to Wu Liang Ye a few times for dinner and even tried their variation on pork belly with chili leeks, except they call it bacon and that kind of made it more delicious. The reason that I avoided their lunch special menu was because most of the things on there sounded like variations of most Chinese take-out places: General Tso, chicken with huana sauce, beef and broccoli, and so on. The had one thing on the menu that had the word "szechuan" in it, and that was the "Baby Shrimp with Szecuan Chili Sauce." Wu Liang Ye apparently has good business even during lunch time. When I walked in to place an order, the dining room was packed. A couple came in after me only had the option to sit at the bar (which only had three stools). The woman told me...

Bouchon Bakery Review: Spider eggs donut from Bouchon Bakery
It's great when the food that you're eating reminds you of something happy. Sometimes though, the food that you're eating reminds you of something not so happy, and it's just confusing because it still tastes good. I got some sort of cream filled chocolate donut from Bouchon Bakery in the Time Warner Center a few weeks ago. It's a tasty enough donut and for $3+, it better damn be tasty. The only thing was that the top of the donut reminded me of spider eggs. If the round crunchy bits weren't covered in chocolate, I'm not sure that it would have been so appetizing. Thankfully it was. While paying over $3 for a donut mayb be excessive, I guess that's what you get when you're buying donuts from a mall in the Upper West Side. Half way through eating my expensive donut, something weird happened. My...

L'As Du Fallafel Review: Awesome sandwich at L'as du Falafel
One of the worst deals required by society is college. Two things about college. One, I loved eating cheap food throughout college. The length that we went to eat cheaply probably crossed the line of legality at some point. Two, I didn't learn all that much. I can remember that in college, one time the assignment was to read Allegory of the Cave. To this day, I have no idea what the hell that story is about. This actually brings me back to point one, about cheap foods. One of the things that was consumed often was Mamoun's Falafel. It was close to campus and back then, it was just $2 for one falafel sandwich. While I loved their falafel as a youngin', I've come to appreciate other falafel sandwiches that layers the ingredients in a more organized manner. It also makes me think about...
