Sundays Are For Being Outdoors
Holy....sh*t, it was a beautiful day yesterday. I'm usually not the one that get so thrilled about a good weather (with breeze and fluffy clouds) day but yesterday was just too damn nice to NOT be outside. Also my friends at Lonestar Taco had tweeted about their fish taco special. Who doesn't like fish tacos!? Fish tacos here I come!....also plus a walk over the Brooklyn Bridge for Smorgas/DUMBO.
Fluke a la plancha with salsa verde and mixed chili marmalade. Amazing! I also got a bean and cheese taco. Just beans and cheese, you ask? Yes. Lonestar Taco does great stuff to their beans so they're not just some ordinary beans.
While walking over the Brooklyn Bridge, a lot of us noticed a plane was doing skywriting. I had to snap this photo because the plane skywrote #occupywallst RIGHT OVER Wall St.
Made it. Besides on the waterfront in Williamsburg, Smorgasburg is now also in the Tobacco Warehouse in DUMBO on Sundays. No more having to trek out to Williamsburg.
Grass, sitting by the water, view of the Manhattan skyline, waving to people on the party boats, eating fish and chips and drinking Arnold palmer with white peach mix-in slushies (from Kelvin Slush).
The view from where I was sitting. Happy days!
We then took a leisurely stroll down to Pier 6 for a beer up on their concession stand rooftop.
Drinking our beers and daydreaming about being future volleyball players.
Fridays Are For Street Fooding In Queens
First ever Viva La Comida! A celebration created by the 82nd Street Partnership.
Nothing beats standing in a line that never seem to move for some crazy good arepas from the Arepa Lady or hanging out with fellow food loving friends (and meeting new ones), while trying not to get killed by a bus zooming down the street.
The Big Gay Ice Cream Cookbook
It's finally official and I can finally let everyone know! The Big Gay Ice Cream Cookbook (aka The Big Gay Ice Cream Yearbook) is for realz and it will be coming out in 2014. I am super excited that I get to photograph the WHOLE book! I'm pretty damn sure we all will have a damn great time working on this. Can't wait to start this.
