― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 24 July 2006 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah i can probably do some august games, morbs.

― hstencil (hstencil), Monday, 24 July 2006 21:31 (seventeen years ago) link

there was some discussion here, a while back, about a chili dog made with fritos available in NYC. i would like to get acquainted with that dog.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 24 July 2006 21:36 (seventeen years ago) link

as well as you dawgs, of course.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Monday, 24 July 2006 21:36 (seventeen years ago) link

that would be dash dogs, on rivington.

i mentioned asam laksa on an ile thread a long time ago. it has screwpine and tamarind and all sorts of crazy stuff in it.

― lauren (laurenp), Monday, 24 July 2006 21:41 (seventeen years ago) link

i was sick to my stomach for like three days after our last malaysian meal, lauren. i wonder if i got shrimp pasted?

― gbx (skowly), Monday, 24 July 2006 22:14 (seventeen years ago) link

d'oh! i thought we were pretty careful, but yeah - sounds like you may have.

(this is regarding a food allergy not food poisoning, btw. skyway rules.)

― lauren (laurenp), Monday, 24 July 2006 22:19 (seventeen years ago) link

skyway does rule. slocki should go. get the oyster omelette and the something-something-mee, with the tofu and fish cakes and coconut/curry broth.

― the eunuchs, Cassim and Mustafa, who guarded Abdur Ali's harem (orion), Monday, 24 July 2006 22:44 (seventeen years ago) link

― cousin larry bundgee (bundgee), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 21:46 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah gabbneb i was thinking about picking up that ish.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 22:58 (seventeen years ago) link

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 22:58 (seventeen years ago) link

i am mad/sad i dont get to meet slocki

― david allen grier (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:09 (seventeen years ago) link

I (personally) find Chowhound and eGullet to be better informed, more refined and cultured (less "oh they speak English here, praise the lord!"), not to mention similar to my tastes than any mainstream mags.

Not sure if you're willing to go the e-foodie route (as yes it is scary) but worth a peak at the very least. Vast amounts of information and the discussion stays current (chefs leaving, ownership/recipes changing), another advantage.

― Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:09 (seventeen years ago) link

aww it'll happen one day (xp)

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:19 (seventeen years ago) link

steve i'm totally into the e-foodie route, i use those sites a lot here. fuck, e-gullet people can be such bitches though... i tried to join once but they wanted me to write an ESSAY on why i deserved to be a member... no joke

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:20 (seventeen years ago) link

no wai

― Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:21 (seventeen years ago) link

wai dude. it's cuz i didn't want to pay but i wanted to respond to something someone (actually a critic from another paper) said about a piece i wrote!!

probably a good idea i didn't!!

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:25 (seventeen years ago) link

i read that ny magazine cheap eats link above and can attest that of the those i know, at least two of the 5 star cheap eats are pretty expensive. the 4 star picks are promising though.

― fongoloid sangfroid (sanskrit), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:42 (seventeen years ago) link

ha probably.

hey did you ever get a chance to go to Queue de Cheval? Out of curiosity, how does it rate in the "Top X restaurants" polls?

― Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:42 (seventeen years ago) link

i still have never been! although to be honest i think the consensus is that QDC isn't worth the mad mad cash

― s1ocki (slutsky), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:44 (seventeen years ago) link

*not expensive relative to le bernardin, of course. which i guess is what they were going for. xpost

― fongoloid sangfroid (sanskrit), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:44 (seventeen years ago) link

Of the NY Cheap Eats list, I've been to three of the restaurants:
I rated Momofuku 3 stars (average food), with 1 star solely for being open after 11pm. It's not cheap either. If you're resourceful, you can do much better than this!
Shake Shack - it was pretty good. Not much of a line on the day I went. 4 stars.
Katz - it's a classic, 4 stars.

With Momofuku ranking so high, I'm immediately skeptical... Yikes.

― Steve Shasta (Steve Shasta), Tuesday, 25 July 2006 23:57 (seventeen years ago) link

the "cheap eats" designation is really questionable for a lot of their choices. steve's right - you'll do a lot better by checking chowhound, though the ny mag issue could be good as an address book.

get off the NY balls

― cutty (mcutt), Wednesday, 26 July 2006 13:08 (seventeen years ago) link

Ev, I hope you do! Will be awes.

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 26 July 2006 13:16 (seventeen years ago) link

cutty, what do you mean when you say "NY balls"?
