Viscous, Blended Joy Juice – Sticky Sweet Sundaze at the 500
Sticky, sweet and svelte- the sentiment one might have when leaving the 500 Club on a Sunday afternoon. As of late they have been holding their Sticky Sundaze, hosted by Clare and Emily. Fruity, sublime concoctions blended within an inch of their life and hot paninis pressed on site to
Cha-Ya: A Euphoric Experience
Being vegetarian in this city is expensive. Don’t get me wrong, I’m definitely not complaining. But if I want to go out for a nice meal, something I want to tell a friend about the next day, I’m pretty much fucked with the prospect of actually going out and I
Tomorrow night: FREE Homemade Pie at Omnivore Books
I really love how many events these days are centered around local food, and this one sounds pretty sweet (as in both cool and sugary). Usually I don’t give a shit, but occasionally I feel just slightly patriotic. You know, around voting time, the Olympics, and yesterday because of the

I’d be hard pressed to find someone in New York City to argue negatively about the idea of eating more locally grown produce or locally made foods. Let’s face it, green fever has been sweeping this city for the past decade, and along with it has emerged a thriving ‘œgreen
The Arctic vs. The Bay: The 2009 Eat Real Festival
I just got back from Alaska, which to me, a liberal, vegan, and judgmental Californian, appeared to be a backwards, behind-the-times, redneck state with stunningly gorgeous views and impressive wilderness. Against this lush, green backdrop, the food situation was unforgivable. Health food stores were few and far-between and restaurants were
