Food Porn: Hot Coco meets High Tea

On a random rainy Friday my dear friend, The Chocolate Muffin (yes, all of my friends and I have aliases), introduced this 2.47 oz square of awesomeness to my humble existence. The richness of dark chocolate, a hint of spicy bergamot and tiny morsels of solid cacao.

Who knew a mere $3.75 could bring such ecstasy?

Dark Chocolate + Earl Grey= A big O for my lil tastebuds

Get your O-face on at Dean and Deluca

Just call me Macaroni Toni

I don't know what it is about Mac and Cheese that makes people so happy.
Little kid and full grown adults go CRAZY for a bowl of mac and cheese.

I guess having S'mac, the East Village eatery dedicated to the stuff, just wasn't enough; so the good folks at Cafeteria and Delicatessen seem to be putting the finishing touches on Mac Bar.



Wedged in between McKnally bookstore and the already-open Delicatessen, Mac Bar is rumoured to be dishing out 12 unique varieties of Mac and Cheese.
While Delicatessen is a depository for douche bags with so-so cuisine, I hope the comfort food at Mac Bar will be well-worth the trouble of fending the lame and drunken masses.


The first week of July is the tentative date for the opening.
Mark your calendars Gluttons.....I sure did!
And stay tuned for a full-on Food Porn Review

Food Porn: My Breakfast Today

CHOCOLATE NAPOLEON

For realz tho.....I'm chewing as I type.
Still not sure why I don't weigh 300 pounds as yet.
My diet consists of Champagne, Chocolate, Turkey Bacon, Pancakes, and Beer.
My children's children will be paying for this when they're born with love handles and B cup hormone-boobies.
God bless America

Sound Trackin': Marie Antionette

Even if this were a silent film, Marie Antoinette would still be one of my favorite films.
The visuals alone are cavity-inducing-amazingness!!

The Pastries
The Champagne
The Hair
The Clothes
The Foot Rubs
The Glorious Excess of It All.....

In this scene, Sofia Coppola chose "Fools Rush In" by Bow Wow Wow to capture delightful and heady Morning-After Feeling.
The magical rush of butterflies taking over the tummy.
Sublime, to say the least.





PS: I love how everyone in Versailles spoke English!!

O is for Orgy or Orgasm or Something Like That...

So since the recession kicked in

(Though I was broke long before that...)

nothing makes my poor little heart happier

than Balthazar's Bakery.

I know what you're thinking what does food have to do with fixing one's economic status? ...Well nothing at all actually. But nothing takes my mind off of depressing shit quite like their

sugar-laden treats.

So gratifying are these delicacies and so frequent are my boughts of depression, that I've become a regular at Balthazar's Bakery. The entire staff and I are on a first name basis, they know exactly what I order (Small Vanilla tea w/ 2 cubes of ice and a Banana Pecan doughnut, Please), and they also occaisonally look out toss an extra goody or two in my bag.

The benches outside of Heaven, I mean Balthazar. Banana Pecan Doughnut!!

God Bless Them!

So for this issue of food porn, I had to do Balthy's justice. I couldn't simply post a picture without a brief summary of this splendid love affair. Balthazar's know how to treat a lady: Give her something to sip on, shower her with sweets and make her forget all about her troubles.

And for this reason and so many more, Balthazar's gets

the Food Porn Big O for its Orgy of epicurious pleasures.

FOOD IS THE NEW PORN!

K is for Kettle Corn

Seriously, I have a problem. Everytime I see this gourmet kettle corn, I HAVE to buy it.

If a store sells this, I think its a sign from Up Above.

So I Carpe the Diem and buy it every time.....EVERY FRIGGIN' TIME!!

PRAY FOR ME.

FOOD IS THE NEW PORN

C is for Chick-Fil-A

Nothing says American Glutton like Fried Chicken and Biscuits!

Lust worthy to say the least!!

PS : WATCH THE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES TONIGHT!!

C is for Cookie

Food is the new porn.
