- Hai: You know, under the plastic wrap, those raw lamb patties kinda look like cupcakes.
- John: MEAT CUPCAKES!
Bone marrow chic. This is miso-glazed bone marrow from Double Crown in New York. In Atlanta, I’m only aware of [Holeman and Finch Public House] that serves bone marrow. I’d love to find more.
And I find it amusing that it’s now a fine dining delicacy, as my mom would make bone marrow soup really frequently in the wintertime. It’s cheap and ridiculously flavorful. And then there’s Pam: “Bone marrow? Yeah, my mom cooks it as a treat for the dogs.”
haha, i can comfortably say that i’m fine with their language issues. thanks josh/rocky.
i was eating one of the leftover lamb patties. i reheated it in the microwave and put it in the bun with the tzatziki and mache and it tasted better than last night! i think it had to do with being sober. each of the ingredients had distinctive clarity: the charred gamey lamb; cold, crunchy, tart and refreshing tzatziki; and fresh buttery greens.
will someone hire me as a food critic? i require a signing bonus and a treadmill.
Fresh pickles that are still green are my favorite! They have a much more audible crunch, the vinegar and seasonings don’t undermine the flavor of the cuke and they’re really pretty :-)
ugh why would you put bbq sauce on a pizza?
"Anita! You liar! We’ll set your hair on fire!"
"Another day it occurred to me that time as we know it doesn’t exist in the lawn, since grass never dies or is allowed to flower and set seed. Lawns are nature purged of sex or death. No wonder Americans like them so much."
On West Peachtree just south of 14th in Midtown, Carolyn’s is a pretty chill lunch spot with an outdoor patio that Erin and I will occasionally go to if the weather’s nice and we’re not going crazy at the office (or if we’re going crazy and severely need that break, haha). They have a really cheesy “positive thinking” theme going on with their interior signage, like motivational slogans, but whatever. Decent sandwiches, wraps, salads and personal size pizzas.
But if you’re like me, the lunch there doesn’t matter so much as their CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES(!!!). Oh em gee something jizzed in my mouth. They have this wonderful almost done-ness that produces a soft, gooey cookie with crunchy edges. The chocolate chips melt all over the place and make a mess, but it ain’t no thang. I want to know what the fuck kinda chocolate chips they are. They have a subtle liquor flavor with hazelnut(?). I have no idea. Erin and I go nuts for these crack cookies.
Get some!
