These are the times where I kick myself in the ass for taking an unpaid internship... Tonight in Midtown Manhattan, Beacon is hosting its annual Chowder Fest 6:30pm. For $95, you get unlimited servings of chowder, grilled lobster, and fried chicken, as well as Brooklyn Brewery pilsner and vodka pink lemonade. [NYMag]. It's not like I can ask my dad, "Hey Dad! Can I get $100 bucks to get drunk off my ass on pink lemonade vodka and eat unlimited amounts of fried chicken?" Pretty sure that won't go over well. All I know is chowder + lobster + fried chicken + alcohol = a dream come true. Thank you Beacon, thank you.
I'm not trying to be debbie downer here with all the death posts, but come on... MORRIE YOHAI!? Whose next??? Tony the Tiger?? For those of you who don't know, Morrie Yohai invented the original cheez doodles. The man is a pure genius (and not to mention a Jew - represent!). Every time i pop one of these crunchy, cheesy, curly goodnesses into my mouth, I'll be thinking of ya Morrie. RIP
Michael Batterberry, founder of Food & Wine magazine, kicked the bucket this past week. The man was destined to be an influence in the food world. With a name like batterberry, how could he not?? Check out Michael on Anthony Bourdain's "Disappearing Manhattan" episode of No Reservations.
