A HUGE thank you to tumblr (and to all of my new followers!) for including You Can’t Eat Bread!? in the tumblr Food Spotlight!
While you’re there, make sure to check out my friends at arazor for true culinary inspiration (and antics!).
This very well-done article highlights many of the stiff challenges we have securing a food system that can be sustainable amongst rapid climate changes while not further destroying the environment especially our threatened water supply. It also points out that biotechnology is not a bad science, rather that we have to get that science away from the bad guys so scientists can use it to feed a growing population.
An absolute must-read to understand the basis of the growing global food security situation.
Thrilled to see that the Delta terminal has seriously kicked it up a notch. They not only offer gluten-free goodies, but TONS of other healthy food, we all know these cookies are a no-no when you intend on wearing a dress that juuust fits tomorrow!

Delightful recipe and incredibly easy to swap wheat flour for gluten-free!
Oh, just a 6-Course meal served on the L Train. What did YOU do this weekend?
Quite possibly the ballsiest interpretation of the “popup restaurant” phenomenon to date: 12 guests were treated to a full 6 courses on an NYC subway commute from 8th Avenue to Canarsie, with a new dish being served every third stop. Courses were plated by teams either on the platform, or in the train itself, and served to guests on custom-built straphanger tables. The exquisitely planned and executed event went off (amazingly) without a hitch. The Great Gatsby was read, diners were stuffed, onlookers drooled. (see the full photo set here)
The menu:
6th Avenue: Hamchi Crudo, Bone Marrow, Trout Roe, Laproaig, Sweet Lime
3rd Avenue: Foie en Brioche, Port Wine, Raisin
Lorimer Street: Ramp Soup, Black Garlic, Cippolini, Morel, Thyme
Morgan Avenue: Petit Filet Mignon, Pomme Puree, Asparagus
Bushwick Avenue: Pepper Jam, St Andre
Sutter Avenue: Chocolate & Gold Leaf Panna Cotta, Raspberry CoulisThe lunch was Hosted by Michael Cirino, Daniel Castano and Andrew Rosenberg of

Jittering with anticipation, when the subway doors opened and I and the other members of Team StudioFeast brought in the main course, Steph Goralnick (my friend since Junior High!) was one of the first people I saw. Quickly snapping photo after photo, she weaved and dodged through servers, passengers, and her photographer counterparts to capture my favorite images of this memorable event.

How many times in your life do you open the Dining & Wine section and say “oh, yeah…that was US!!” ?
What a privilege to work with these fine folks. And in case you were wondering, the food kicked some serious culinary ass.
“I can’t even describe what just happened, but it was freaking awesome. A Razor, A Shiny Knife, Studiofeast and others just cooked/served a 6 course menu along the whole route of the L Train, one course every 4/5 stops with new teams plating on platforms, serving, then disappearing. It went off flawlessly. The menu:
– Hamchi Crudo, Bone Marrow, Trout Roe, Laproaig, Sweet Lime
– Foie en Brioche, Port Wine, Raisin,
– Ramp, Black Garlic, Cippolini, Morel, Thyme
– Petit Filet Mignon, Pomme Puree, Asparagus
– Pepper Jam, St Andre
– Chocolate & Gold Leaf Panna Cotta, Raspberry
Much more to come, we have wonderful photo/video from the day (I wore a camera mounted to a headband for the entire platform plating & train car service).” – Mike Lee, Captain of Team StudioFeast
Almost 24-hours later, and I’m still on an adrenaline high. It was an honor to work not only with our team, but with all six wildly talented teams as a whole. Hats of to A Razor, A Shiny Knife for superb event execution, and to StudioFeast for including me in this kickass event. Here’s to many, many more events to come.

marion nestle posted some of the army’s nutrition guidelines from 1861 on her blog. it sounds like the sage advice of bon vivants rather than any sullen military diet! not much has changed since then (except of course, the invention of junk food). read them here.
