M here. Seriously, after a 7 month hiatus, I am really here. My deepest apologies for letting this blog fall by the wayside. Typical excuses – work just got too overwhelming, the restaurant queue just got longer and longer to a point where it was just too intimidating. And nothing came by that was inspiring [...]

Y here. Like everyone else, I don’t mind indulging once in a while in an unhealthy, potentially heart attack inducing meal. And like everyone else, I’m not recession proof. That’s why this article from Serious Eats caught my attention. Vegetarians, please avert your eyes. Fried chicken wings? Fried chicken wings stuffed with sticky rice? Initially, [...]

Y here. As usual, I have, in my disorganized behavior, fallen behind in my food blogging. However, tonight (after an early day from work), I’ve decided to do some catch up. Once in a while, Restaurants.com has a great deal that M and I just can’t resist. While many of the restaurants on the list [...]

M here. Although I’m a bit saddened that our Hawaii segment has officially come to a close, I’m happy to introduce a few new offerings for Foodgasmic readers – (cue drumroll) the start of recipe and bar reviews. Beginning today, Y and I will be sharing our triumphs and disasters in the kitchen as well [...]

Y here. I believe that this restaurant will be the last of our Hawaii reviews. Let’s all have a moment of silence (pause sadly). The good news is that New York spring is just around the corner (last weekend was phenomenally warm), so I look forward to getting out of my hibernation and trying out [...]

Y here. Thank God for privacy filters during work. Unfortunately, there’s not that many good food places in Midtown in New York. Fortunately, I still have several more places to blog, so I can think back to the delicious days of coconut shrimp and mai tai’s. We were lucky that Tiki’s Grill and Bar was [...]

Y here. Yup…she’s actually here. Like M, she got sucked into the whole Hawaii trip, and afterwards had to go back to work…which explains her month long absence from this blog. But tonight…she started taking a nap, and dreamed of images of …a shrimp truck. So she decided that the great shrimp gods from above [...]

M here. When I first moved into the City, I was pleasantly surprised and a bit overwhelmed by the sheer volume of delivery options. With new menus being slipped under my door and into my mailbox almost every day, how was girl to choose? Luckily when I had a Thai craving early one Sunday afternoon, [...]

M here. As part of my case interview preparation back in the good old days of college recruiting, I memorized a lot of random (and, in my opinion, useless) statistics (thank god I did not become a consultant, right?). One statistic that struck me was the staggering number of restaurants in New York City, over [...]

Y here. After dining at this place for five times in 10 weeks, a term that might better fit it is: Shake Shack of Death. Or as my boss, who loves this place, might call it: SHAKE SHACK. Oh readers, you don’t understand. When M first introduced me to Shake Shack, I thought it was [...]
