what are you eating today?

[mouko]

Fuck this thread is depressing now that I'm getting back into shape.

[evisu 2000]

was home early after first day of class so i acutally made food for lunch:D

10mins later.....dessert

oh god that loooks amaazinginginginging.

[herpsky]

Yakitori Taisho on St. Marks. Opens at 6pm everday. Suggest you getting there early and try the chicken skins/scallions.

i don't think taisho is great.

i dunno of other yakitori places

(i do hear aburiya kinnosuke or whatever is good)

but taisho's yakitori's sub-par...

what do you think miz, chicken?

[mis]

Sidney got fat

but still sexy lah

[Chicken]

herp, i think taisho's got the atmosphere. but if you want good yakitori (real sumiyaki stuff) then i'd recommend totto in midtown.

not that i've eaten everywhere, but the best yakitori i've had in the states so far is in dallas of all places. a place called teppo.

anthony bourdain's no reservations started a new season in singapore last night.

just fyi.

[kenthenoob]

ahhhh i love that show. made me want some indonesian roast pig. *drool*

[mizanation]

the singapore episode was awesome. singapore looks like it's a country made up of the best parts of every asian country. makes me want to go.

how much does something like that cost if u got it from a resto/cafe ?

Seriously after watching that eps I'm totally planning a trip there this summer and just fucking pig out.

That was~us$6, at a nice place.

poptarts- it tastes like earl grey tea but could do with a bit more bergamot.

have you tried the softshell crab at yakitori?... its quite good too

[mr_smartman]

lunch @ home on my day off from class:D

drinks:

i really need to stop cooking, everytime i cook...i always end up wit two sunny side eggs. and its being 3 days like this alrdy:(

[sleazie ninja number 47]

mr. smartman i like your style, fried egg on everything...

herpsky i agree. taisho is not that great. conveniently located. good ambience, but the flavor is lacking. Chicken's suggestion of Yakitori Totto on 55th is spot on. Best I've had in NY by far.

as far as NO RESERVATIONS, sometimes I feel Anthony Bourdain sucks up to his hosts too much esp. in the azn episodes, but that sg season premiere really made me want to visit singapore/penang. Maybe i'll goto Nyonya and get my chicken rice on today.

[tweeds]

miz, mouko and ninja...come to singapore. we'll fatten you lot up.

[cchen]

not that i've eaten everywhere, but the best yakitori i've had in the states so far is in dallas of all places. a place called teppo.

in addition to totto i recommend torys (owned by same restaurant group) and tori shin (1st ave btwn 64th and 65th). i had only known about totto and torys but a reporter who interviewed me from the nikkei recommended it. top notch.

[whizkit]

caesar salad

bourbon vanilla mille-feuille

black tea flavoured with bergamot, lemon and sweet orange

[plongin]

a day in the life of whiz looks so enlightening... music always in the ears, good food, premium tea, and taking a walk round, shuffling through the racks of queen's couture. god like.

[soepom]

^ yes, kit is god. (p/s keep the vibskov lah. nice leh)

dinner on 6th Jan at Br**ks (doubt i'm returning to the place)

fish and chips. fairly generous portion, and looks okay. but tastes pretty blah.

the description was brownie topped with cheese sauce, so i had to try it. it was surprisingly palatable. but i wouldn't pay to eat it again.

singapore is also home to too many restaurants/cafes like this one. belonging to that uncomfortable range of eateries that's between fast food and bistro food. and achieving neither the sinful artificial processed goodness of the former, nor the quality and simplicity/subtleties of the latter.

dinner on 7th Jan at a new workplace:

burger. twas pretty tasty. and fairly cheap for what it is (not that i had to pay for it) and the beer was cheap too! damn. pity the gig is only for this month. double damn that this is a members-only club so i can't be poppin' back for a cheap beer and a bite either.

[prima]

hot dog, pizza, beer

Have I been spotted at QC?

[organic ketchup]

[tk1o48]

whatever i ate today... was just unleashed

[MoreFire]

Vegetables with poached quail eggs, meshed potatoes

[whizkit]

morefire - you need to eat more, you are so.... skeenneeee

[mis]

Brownie with cheese sauce is next level

I just went to Soba Totto last nite, they have yakitori in addition to the soba, though not as good as Torys or Totto, maybe they have a few kinks to work out. But they have a waiting room/bar with a bar menu. Which is better than waiting in the hallway at totto/torys
