Delish In late June I started a new chapter as Assistant Food Editor for Delish. A digital food media brand with a quarterly magazine, YouTube channel, and vibrant food team that keeps the flow on it’s toes! Moving from television production- in food and lifestyle tv- to Assistant Food Editor in the editorial space felt…
Visit As much as I live to be a pasta queen I can’t possibly remember them all. I certainly haven’t tried nearly a third of what exists. I lost track of a few things I knew after studying abroad in 2018. I hadn’t spent much time north nor had I ever visited Parma. When…
CULATELLO There’s an eerie feeling walking into a salumi dungeon. The smell of ammonium almost suffocating as the mold spores from the exterior soil wraps the culatello (think of it like terroir). They hang from the ceiling and taper down on chains waiting to be plucked for service. It’s a raw sight but one that’s…
Aba’s Falafel is a business venture Cathy Nor never expected. From over saturated farmers market weekends to a hole in the wall establishment in Rhinebeck, NY there are ALWAYS lines of people waiting to devour falafel in pita or on Sabich platters.
This is one of those instances where I told myself- go for it. I love collaborations, and I love exploring food-related businesses and brands. David Cruz is a fellow CIA alum who started Reconnect Foods via a food truck in the Hudson Valley. I was thrilled when I saw the concept turn to brick and…
I have gone to Misi Robbins restaurants more times than I’ve visited any other Brooklyn eatery. And there are SO many I want to venture to there. But I will never be mad about it. Buttery, crispy, crunchy, herbaceous, zingy— the buzz words I describe her veggie plates. This time, we hit a few…
More reasons to love Kingston—somehow these spots got swept under my nose. Ollie’s slice shop is breaking out pizzas like caramelized onion with melted Italian hot pepper and a very pillowy Sicilian. I’m typically not a fan of the grandma style crushed tomato mound on top of cheese, but this was solid. Fletcher &…
Mocktails are the what the cool kids drink- that’s me by the way- so I wanted to one in Francesca’s Ciao Box. I came across St. Agrestis and realize it’s a native New Yorker, like myself so I had to include it. Turns out there are a variety of profiles a phony negroni can take…
The Neopolitan pizza gem in midtown run by Giorgia Caporuscio. She is a female pizziola powerhouse and I can’t tell you how delicious my experience was. You have to go yourself. The pizza was what one would say “transports you to the source” and I agree… with myself. Without knowing the exact products used I…
I’ve definitely talked about the Golden Diner lots in the last few months. Absolutely worth a day trip just for the pancakes alone. Get up and out pretty early to beat the morning rush lined up outside the quaint dive. We only tried a few things on the menu including the pancakes, matcha crumb cake,…
