Fried Chicken & Biscuits at Bobwhite – NYC
05.28.12 | Permalink | 5 Comments

As I mentioned in my Roscoe’s post, the problem with a lot of fried chicken in New York is that the meat tends to be flavorless. The fried exterior may be well-seasoned and delicious, but when you get down to the meat, it’s complete blandsville. Not so at Bobwhite Counter, where the meat is as good as the fried breaded skin, if not better. MORE »

I Heart Japadog – NYC
01.12.12 | Permalink | 5 Comments

Japadog, the wildly popular Japanese-style hot dog chain from Canada finally opened a location in New York last week, and I have to say I’m hooked. In the past week, I’ve been twice already. A lot of people find the toppings weird, but I don’t get it. We’re not talking jellied moose nose or maggot cheese here, just good ol’ Japanese toppings like miso, nori, and mayonnaise. Pretty benign stuff that’s also freakin’ tasty. MORE »
