I'm anxiously awaiting a blue flower bagel (which are amazing) with egg whites and cheese and a diet pepsi on the rocks...

Noticed them on my way back from the library today but Honest Tom seems to have set up shop in Logan Sq on Fridays now. So if you want to get your Fish Taco on and don't feel like schleping it to West Philly keep an eye open.

My wife started working for Hoboken recently and is complaining about the food out there for lunch. Does anyone have any recommendations that I can give her?

Thx

"Shameless Plea for Pie Contest Votes + Promise of Pie for Happy Hour" by Brownie

Brownie — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 11:16:50 -0500

My raspberry rhubarb pie is a finalist in the Serious Eats Pi Day contest. I'm tied for 2nd, but getting smoked by a rectangle with Pi to 100 decimal places. Impressive, but my inner math geek can't help but protest that pi can't be utilized with rectangles!

I would love to bask in the sheer nerdy glory of winning a pi themed pie contest and I've been trying my hardest to drum up the votes, but taking first place has been elusive thus far. If my pie takes the crown I will bring midtown lunchers pie of their choosing at the next happy hour (provided the bar is cool with it). Otherwise I'll bring pie to SMPIII or another gathering. Think of it as not so much a bribe, but a campaign promise. Ok, maybe it is a bribe but I throwdown a mean crust! Vote here: http://bit.ly/9DRTd3. Thanks!

Hi There!
I know there have been discussions about the McDonald's Shamrock Shake. Every year I continue to look for it, and this year is no different. Any leads for Manhattan?

"What a 1 year old Happy Meal looks like" by Mamacita

"It smelled delicious for a few days. I’d get a whiff of those yummy French fries every time I walked into my office. After a week or so, you could hardly smell it. My husband worried that when the food began to decompose, there would be a terrible odor in our home. He also worried the food would attract ants and mice. He questioned my sanity.

NOPE, no worries at all. My Happy Meal is one year old today and it looks pretty good. It NEVER smelled bad. The food did NOT decompose. It did NOT get moldy, at all."

"Food Wars on The Travel Channel" by Steve

Steve — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 09:25:04 -0500

Has anyone watched? The premise is good, but my problem with it is that the host tells the judges which food came from which restaurant before the judges make their selection. The "fan" can then pick his own place every time. They shouldn't reveal whose is whose until after the votes are submitted.
