Recently in New York City category:
Someone from San Francisco told me that there were now too many ice cream shops in the city. I didn’t think that was possible, but I guess things have changed since I moved away. (There are also some amazing bakeries there as well, which I don’t think is anything to grouse about either.) Just like in San Francisco, not only has the baking scene in…
Here’s a round-up of places I visited recently in New York City. One happy change (which is also happening in cities elsewhere) is the proliferation of excellent bakeries making top-quality artisan bread, as well as bakeries with a global focus. While Americans don’t buy bread daily, as the French do, you can get terrific bread and pastries if you know where to look. Restaurants…
Who knew there was a cheese aging cave in bustling New York City? New York City is known for a lot of things, but aging cheese isn’t one of them. At least I didn’t think so. Crown Finish Caves is in a former Budweiser brewery, in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. The building had been dormant since 1914 (the railroad tracks that brought ingredients to the brewery,…
To celebrate the release of the paperback edition of L’Appart, I’ll be at Shakespeare & Co. at 939 Lexington Avenue (between 68th and 69th Streets) in New York City on Tuesday, November 13th, from 6:30 to 8pm. I’ll be in conversation with Justin Spring, author of The Gourmands’ Way: Six Americans in Paris and the Birth of a New Gastronomy. We’ll be taking questions, as…
{更新：Bistro Pierre Lapin已关闭。]人们对法国和他们与食物的关系印象深刻的（和有点羡慕）。如此多，以便联合国教科文组织将法国的美食膳食添加到他们的无形文化遗产名单上。在桌子周围吃的聚会是大多数文化所在的东西，当然，它似乎携带特殊......
I’m always interested in ice cream, no matter where it’s from. But probably the most intriguing one I’ve ever come across was booza, an ice cream thickened, not with eggs or cornstarch, but with sahleb and mastic. Republic of Booza was opened by Jilbert El-Zmetr and Michael Sadler, along with two business partners, in Brooklyn, New York, bringing this ice cream stateside. Jilbert owned a booza…
When I come to the states, with apologies to all who’ve urged me to check out a croissant, Kouign amann, or macaron shop, since I can get all those things pretty easily in France, I tend to stick with local favorites. I don’t think anyone from San Francisco is coming to Paris for a burrito, nor in anyone flying over from Brooklyn in search of…
更新：La Newyorkina于1月，2021年关闭。您仍然可以在线和选定的网点上获得La Newyorkina产品。更多关于他们的网站。在我的第一次去墨西哥之旅之前多年前，我不知道墨西哥是一个由其冰淇淋（Helado）闻名的国家，更不用说一系列其他美味的糖果。我通过Panaderias（面包店）徘徊，金属托盘和钳子他们给了......
当我追溯到美国时，我经常沮丧，人们告诉我他们想知道为什么他们不能在他们生活的地方获得美食，就像他们在法国一样。虽然它肯定是真实的，但美国每街角落都没有面包店（我认为人们会想念所有这些24/7药房和咖啡馆），有新炉灶，洁净的奶酪，葡萄酒，葡萄酒，...
