Gelateria Naia


The gelato stand at golden glass today offered up both traditional an innovative flavors. Case in point: my ice cream cone. They were tiny little scoops, perfect for tasting. From the bottom up: pistachio, burnt caramel, and whisky.

mmmm pink goo



McDonald's just announced that they're stopping use of this omnipresent pink goo in their food. What is it you ask? AMMONIUM HYDROXIDE. As in a chemical often found in cleaning solutions and wood stain. Yum! They used it to chemically treat beef otherwise unfit for consumption. That's one happy meal.

La Boulange



smoked salmon open faced sandwich with crème fraîche, thinly sliced cucumber, shallots, capers, and lemon. accompanied by a side (I chose fruit, obviously), this lunch totaled a whopping $8.75. Pas mal!

these are all the little things they have available to compliment your lunch (re: FREE). I love me some olives (obviously). These were of mediocre quality, but nicely spiced. The cornichons were good, a crunchy reliable staple. But the mustard. OHHHH the mustard. It was FANTASTIC. I dipped just about everything but my strawberries in it.
