Feast Your Eyes

Feast

I’m quite excited to tell you that I’m part of “Feast Your Eyes” photo show by the New York Photo Festival. You can probably guess that this show is all about food. It’ll be awesome to see works by other photographers all in one place. The two images below are the ones that got accepted. Left is Nate Smith, Alexis Krisel and Sara Kramer from Allswell in Williamsburg and on the right is Nicole Chaszar of Sea Bean Goods.

So if you’re around this coming Friday Jan 6th, come on by to the show at the powerHouse Arena (37 Main St and Water St) in Dumbo, Brooklyn. The show starts at 6pm till 9pm and will be up till Jan 27th. For more info check out their site.

Also with the success of my Foodaissance show at the James Beard House last September, I’m planning to do another show some time this year. Yeah!

Thank you for your support! Here’s to an awesome 2012.

Apple Cider Ice Cream In Cream Soda

Yesterday at the New Amsterdam Market was their Hard Cider Revival with many vendors selling foods with apple cider in them. I stopped by the P&H Soda Co. stall to say HI to Anton and also to try the apple cider ice cream soda float. Anton recommended the cream soda and it was freakin fantastic. I never had apple cider ice cream before but this version, made by Anton’s friend, was sooooo good. Just the first bite I was able to taste the apple cider. What a perfect summer treat even though its Fall.

Wow I was pretty impressed with The Brooklyn Local event by City Harvest. The event was to raise money for City Harvest (City Harvest works with greenmarkets and restaurants to take their food that usually would go to waste and gives them to the needy).

I was impressed by how organized the event was and it never felt too crowded even with the 75 local food vendors. Looking forward to next year.

New Amsterdam Market Ice Cream Sunday

Marlow & Sons

This past Sunday was the 2nd Annual New Amsterdam Market Ice Cream Sunday. Besides getting to see some friends (La Newyorkina and Steve’s Ice Cream), I was finally able to try The Bent Spoon. I have heard so much GREAT things about them and their ice cream did not disappoint (planning a trip to Princeton soon). Actually every tiny scoop of ice cream I had from all the vendors were great.
