Hot Sake - Food News You Can Use

2006_03_food_Hot Sake2.jpg- Expect to see Chinatown Brasserie cozy up for its Frankie Close-up Wednesday. While we are not in practice setting the line on things like this, seems like a two star job. Just a question on which way it may lean.

- One food blogger's answer to the tough question we have all hemmed and hawed about – “What’s your favorite restaurant in New York?” Can’t get behind La Esquina as a choice, but the rest looks a-ok.


- First it was farmed salmon mislabeled as wild salmon, now it is fish like tilapia and catfish being passed off as grouper. Says a lot about what you can pull over on Floridians as opposed to NY’ers.

- The LA Times goes to town on burgers, should you be traveling.

- It’s a bit well worn, but funny enough to put forth again – well worth the risk if we can share it with just…..one..….more…..person. Enjoy the food-porn mash-up.

- If in search of a tagline or subtitle, it might be “Sake loves Salt”, or something like that. As deep as our love, check this run from Megnut in the past week.

I would argue the opposite--that Floridians would be much more inclined to tell the difference. Many Floridians have actually caught and prepared local seafood themselves.

New Yorkers however are in general fairly clueless about the natural state of food. i.e. What a certain food looks like before it shows up in plastic in the grocery store or in a $40 entree.
