Food Adventuring Around NYC
I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2017… My first post on this site was for the still excellent pizzeria Kesté. This year they expanded big time with locations in both Williamsburg and the Financial District. And they also got a little fancier with a few new appetizers that were not available …
Come back every Wednesday for another funny, informative video documenting my inept food adventures. My very first review on this site (back in 2009) was for a brand new Neapolitan pizzeria called Kesté. I had never tasted pizza like that and I have written about their pillowy, charred, wood-fired pizzas over and over again. They …

For my halfway mark, it’s fitting that I return to one of my new favorite places in New York. Somewhere that I have dined at before, reviewed favorably on the blog here, and somewhere I shot a segment of my first webisode. The list brings me back to Kesté. I’ve established somewhat of a relationship with …
Here is the first episode: In order to gain credibility for the web series, Brian invites his work friend Anthony (an authentic Italian) along to find the best pizza in NYC. Eat This NY: PIZZA DAY from Eat This NY on Vimeo.
Nobody in New York seems to eat dinner before 7pm. It just doesn’t happen. If you eat dinner before 7, you haven’t gotten the memo. Or maybe you’re just old. Old people eat dinner early. Whenever I go visit my grandmother in Florida, dinner is at 5pm sharp. 5:00?? I just finished lunch, for Chrissake!! …
