Tidbits

- Our friends at Curbed give us a bit of news about the new Fairway in Red Hook -- it's slated to open on May 17th.

- For the extremely lazy dieters out there: If you're on a mission to shed some pounds and can't be bothered to jot everything down in a food diary (an incredibly sobering experience, for the record), you can now phone it in. Sprint has launched MyFoodPhone, a food journaling application that allows users to photograph their meals using their cameraphones and send them off for nutritional analysis for a mere $9.99 per month. The service also includes a web-based application they can access through their phones to track weight, and exercise. [via Slashfood]

- East Village Roast Beef sandwich afficianados mourn the loss of Roll-n-Roaster. They've been instructed to head out to Sheepshead Bay (not likely). [Evil Discussor via Gothamist Contribute

- A Hamburger Today brings us the word on this weekend's Burger Club outing to DuMont. A word of warning -- we thought their burger was too dry.

- Famous Fat Dave (a.k.a. "The Hungry Cabbie") is a New York City cab driver who loves the food that the city has to offer. Not only does he have a blog about his eating adventures, but he can be hired out to take you on private eating tours (which have great names -- we're particularly fond of the "Junk in the Trunk" package, which consists of 9 to 12 neighborhoods and 16 to 20 tastes).
