vegetable burrito

I am by no means a vegetarian, but on occasion I do order a few veggie dishes, especially at mexican restaurants which compensate the non-meat with avocado and cheese. If your around Chelsea, pop into the Rocking Horse Cafe for a real treat. All of the burritos are great, chicken and steak included, but the vegetarian stands out by far. If you do find yourself there, get the guacamole, salmon, and lamb shank. Let me know what you think. 

food guide

The biggest problem I incur when deciding where to go for dinner is figuring out where has the best of a specific food. Everything else at the restaurant may suck BUT they may have the best veal schnitzle or chicken parm going and if that's what I want then I don't really care what review NY Mag gave it. So I will periodically write about great foods I've enjoyed at random restaurants. In case you're in those hoods....

smoking popes

Does anyone remember this song? Catchy riff and a little cheesy but it's a great song to drive to. Smoking Popes

meat puppet

I remember listening to Nirvana's MTV Unplugged in New York album when I was middle school and wondering what the hell "Meat Puppets" were when Kurt mentioned them. I feel bad for these guys, most people don't know that songs like "Oh, Me" and "Lake of Fire" is originally theirs. We should at least give them a little credit for "Backwater".
