Big Gay Ice Cream open till 11pm in the winter, I think midnight in the summer.
If you’re in the East Village and have just finished stuffing yourself with awesome Japanese food and would like good delicious soft serve and also do not mind NOT having a place to sit, you’re probably going to Big Gay Ice Cream.

Fu Ren's Pork Ball Soup
Fu Ren is a pretty excellent northern Chinese restaurant with a little bit of middle eastern influence in the Flushing area. If you’re in the mood for solid Chinese comfort food, this should be one of the first choices you consider.
2 comI was recently asked to write up a things-to-do & eat list in New York City for a friend of a friend. Thought I’d put this up to share with people who aren’t familiar with the city.

Pig out platter I think it was called. We definitely felt bovine after this meal.
Was down for some BBQ but didn’t want to pay the crazy prices. We found this place from five minutes of searching online. This is definitely a local bar, but with a giant smoker in the back imported from the Lone Star state.

Downtown LA at night.
Recently a cousin of mine was visiting the West Coast. She asked me where the good places to eat were. I sat down to write the email and it took me a good few hours to finish. I realized, this isn’t a bad list. So I wanted to share it with anyone interested. It’s not anywhere near complete, please add via comments.

Our uber talented hotter-than-the-take-home-chef cow cow has been practicing his pizza making skills for a few months now, and today he made us a delicious tasting pizza with salami, fresh mushrooms, and fresh mozzarella. The dough was chewy with the perfect thickness.
Boneless Bone in NY Strip
Ruth’s Chris in Hollywood doesn’t really need an introduction. Went with 4 other friends to have a very nice meal. My friend knew the executive chef there, so expectations were high.

Pho schizzle
Need a quick Pho fix? Pho 79 might hit the spot. Though their website is pretty crummy with only their locations. Conveniently located off Garfield Ave. next to the theatre, this is one of my on the way/in the neighborhood Pho destinations. In this case it was on the way.
We got there about an hour before they closed and the waiter was already pushing me to hurry up. I sat down and immediately ordered two bowls of combination Pho and an order of spring rolls.
