The afternoon I took this picture in Hell’s Kitchen was one of the steamiest days this summer, but that didn’t stop New Yorkers from loving HOT 99¢ slices. I have a feeling I might look back at this picture in 20 years and be shocked at how cheap a slice was (I’m even a little […]

Culinography: Brunch Wedding
I recently attended a wedding that was an early afternoon affair, and they served brunch. What a delicious idea! I’ll take bagels and lox and an omelette bar over some dry chicken and rice dish any day! Photo by Erin Gleeson.

Culinography: Bacon-Covered Mazoh Balls
Recently, I was at someone’s house for brunch and bacon-covered mazoh balls were served (I believe inspired by this NPR show). How terribly traif! Well… almost.
