Tidbits

• Where does one find the best falafel in New York? The Girl Who Ate Everything declares, and Ed Levine agrees, that it might just be at Taim. We'd definitely put it near the top of our list, as we do love Rainbow Falafel quite a bit as well.
• This year's pickle festival was apparently a huge success, with pickles and lines galore.
• The trick to making your food last longer is proper storage. Yes, if you put your bananas in the fridge they'll get brown on the outside, but not rotten on the inside.
• Brooklyn favorite and NYT double-star earner Franny's is set to expand with a second location sometime next summer.
• Adam Roberts gets up close and personal with David Kamp, author of The United States of Arugula and co-author of The Food Snob's Dictionary.
