Restaurant List Updated, Finally
Jul 12th
Yes, I know it’s been a long time coming (almost a year!), but I’ve finally gotten around to updating the George and Linda’s A to Z Eatathon Extravaganza list.
As of this update, we’re up to 104 different places.
This list covers 688 days – 8/23/2008 to 7/12/2010
We eat at a new place approximately once every 6.6 days.
We’ve eaten in 7 different states: GA, CA, PA, IL, TX, FL, NY
22 of 26 letters have been covered – missing letters: Q, V, X, Z
I Heart NY Bagels
Mar 26th
Here are some common words I have been using to describe my imported New York bagel breakfasts these past few mornings:
- bagelicious
- bageltastic
- bagemazing
- inbagelable
- the bagel-diggity
- round and toasty
We’re Back!
Mar 24th
L and I just got back from NYC for a long weekend of fun and food – mostly food. Our friends Maryanne and Clarence got married! It was good times. However, there is only so much you can take of older Chinese people on the dance floor. In fact, there is only so much you can take of ME on the dance floor. That’s another story altogether.
Most important, this is what we ate:
Cheese slice at Gaby’s Pizza
Porterhouse Steak at Peter Luger
Cheesecake at Omega Diner
Dumplings at Joe’s Shanghai
Boba at TenRen’s Tea Time
Hot dog from a street vendor
Americano at Stumptown Coffee
Gyro from a Halal street vendor
Pastrami and corned beef at Carnegie Deli
Strawberry cheesecake at Carnegie Deli
Sausage pizza at Bravo Pizza
Red Velvet Cupcake from Magnolia Bakery
Gelato at Golosi
Blueberry pancakes and sugar cured bacon at Clinton Street Baking Co.
Shack Stack and Black and White Shake at Shake Shack
and of course, 14 bagels from Pick a Bagel for the road/freezer.
Not bad for 3.5 days, right? That’s not even including a wedding and a reception and all the touristy sightseeing stuff.
