In addition to being able to shop like a "civilized" human being (in other words, "with wine"), Lidia Bastianich and her partner say that what makes Eataly successful is ... its harmony.

But Empell&#243;n Cocina on First Avenue isn't just a rehash of <a href="http://nymag.com/listings/restaurant/empellon/">Empell&#243;n Taqueria</a> in the West Village. The new spot focuses not on tacos, but on ambitious dishes such as hamachi with walnut pur&#233;e, poblano chili and apples; tiny bay scallops with huitlacoche and brown-butter m&#243;le; crispy masa with shrimp and uni; and mezcal-cured ocean trout. Speaking of mezcal, the staff says Cocina also has the city's biggest selection of tequila and mezcal. We can't verify that, but one look at the bar does prove they have <em>a lot</em> of agave spirits on hand.

Apparently, Starr wants to expand into the residential co-op that houses the restaurant, but co-op shareholders and neighbors are worried about noise, congestion, and closing hours. The committee asked to him come back next month for another hearing, and suggested he iron things out with his new neighbors in the interim. Starr told Grub Street that he was "confident" all concerns could be worked out. </p> <p>Read more posts by <a href="/author/mary%20reinholz">Mary Reinholz</a></p><p>Filed Under: <strong><a href="http://nymag.com/tags/domination" title="Read all posts tagged 'domination'">domination</a></strong>, <a href="http://nymag.com/tags/stephen%20starr" title="Read all posts tagged 'stephen starr'">stephen starr</a></p> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/p-yrzGShue21yAEoCpqk-whnvC4/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/p-yrzGShue21yAEoCpqk-whnvC4/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/p-yrzGShue21yAEoCpqk-whnvC4/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/p-yrzGShue21yAEoCpqk-whnvC4/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?a=GtSA37_2kZU:daQuBers7Es:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?a=GtSA37_2kZU:daQuBers7Es:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?i=GtSA37_2kZU:daQuBers7Es:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?a=GtSA37_2kZU:daQuBers7Es:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?i=GtSA37_2kZU:daQuBers7Es:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?a=GtSA37_2kZU:daQuBers7Es:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/nymag/grubstreet/~4/GtSA37_2kZU" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/nymag/grubstreet/~3/GtSA37_2kZU/stephen-starr-taking-paris-commune-space.html http://newyork.grubstreet.com/2012/02/stephen-starr-taking-paris-commune-space.html http://newyork.grubstreet.com/2012/02/stephen-starr-taking-paris-commune-space.html#comment-list Domination Fri, 10 Feb 2012 16:40:00 GMT http://newyork.grubstreet.com/2012/02/stephen-starr-taking-paris-commune-space.html <img class="left" src="http://boston.grubstreet.com/20110607_martini_146x97.jpg"/><br /><strong>That's the martini lunch talking.</strong> <p>"However, my one and only regret is not having been able to realize my dream to open a fabulous hotel on the beach in Santa Monica back in 1989.

And these days, more than ever, pastry is getting the due that it deserves: <em>Food & Wine</em> is launching a search for the country's best new pastry chef; <em>Top Chef</em> keeps churning out seasons of its pastry-only spinoff; Johnny Iuzzini and Michael Laiskonis were rightfully heralded as stars when they recently departed their respective restaurants; and every other show on TV is about cake wars. We won't call it a sugar renaissance, because dessert never went away, but pastry is undeniably playing a larger part in the culinary conversation than it ever has before.</p> <p>Television and food glossies might be pushing the surge in public interest, but there's no doubt the movement is being led by the country's ever-growing roster of skilled, brilliant pastry chefs. Dessert menus are no longer filled with standards like molten chocolate cake and simple cr&#232;me br&#251;l&#233;e. Chefs are using savory elements and seasonal ingredients in shockingly effective ways; classic childhood treats like milkshakes and doughnuts are being both honored with ur-versions and totally reinvented with modernist techniques; avant-garde chefs are completely ditching traditional cake, custard, and pie formats and turning out conceptual desserts that are almost unclassifiably inventive. (And one industrious brewery is even turning beer into dessert.) In fact, the ethereal, almost whimsical nature of dessert allows pastry chefs to push their craft forward harder and faster than their savory counterparts ever could.</p> <p>To find all the picks on this list, Grub Street's editors scoured their respective cities, then put the call out to critics around the country and chefs such as Andrew Carmellini, Michelle Bernstein, and Seamus Mullen. What we found were some of the most impressive, eye-popping creations we'd ever seen. We started with New York &#8212; it's our home base, after all &#8212; and arranged the rest of the picks alphabetically by city.

But taken as a whole, the creations on this list represent what's happening in America's pastry world right now. In short, these are 101 desserts made by people working at the top of their collective game &#8212; and every one of them is definitely worth saving room for.</p> <p>Read more posts by <a href="/author/alan%20sytsma">Alan Sytsma</a>, <a href="/author/alyssa%20shelasky">Alyssa Shelasky</a>, <a href="/author/collin%20keefe">Collin Keefe</a>, <a href="/author/hadley%20tomicki">Hadley Tomicki</a>, <a href="/author/jay%20barmann">Jay Barmann</a>, <a href="/author/jenny%20miller">Jenny Miller</a>, <a href="/author/kara%20baskin">Kara Baskin</a>, <a href="/author/michael%20gebert">Michael Gebert</a>, and <a href="/author/roger%20kamholz">Roger Kamholz</a></p><p>Filed Under: <a href="http://nymag.com/tags/dessert" title="Read all posts tagged 'dessert'">dessert</a>, <a href="http://nymag.com/tags/grub%20guides" title="Read all posts tagged 'grub guides'">grub guides</a>, <a href="http://nymag.com/tags/slideshow" title="Read all posts tagged 'slideshow'">slideshow</a></p> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/QnOZ2JbIY4mPUz3YPN_ZXkQnivg/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/QnOZ2JbIY4mPUz3YPN_ZXkQnivg/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/QnOZ2JbIY4mPUz3YPN_ZXkQnivg/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/QnOZ2JbIY4mPUz3YPN_ZXkQnivg/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?a=TrIZSIbsjtc:pgS5zCJovUo:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?a=TrIZSIbsjtc:pgS5zCJovUo:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?i=TrIZSIbsjtc:pgS5zCJovUo:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?a=TrIZSIbsjtc:pgS5zCJovUo:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?i=TrIZSIbsjtc:pgS5zCJovUo:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?a=TrIZSIbsjtc:pgS5zCJovUo:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/nymag/grubstreet?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/nymag/grubstreet/~4/TrIZSIbsjtc" height="1" width="1"/> http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/nymag/grubstreet/~3/TrIZSIbsjtc/101-best-new-desserts-in-the-country.html http://newyork.grubstreet.com/2012/02/101-best-new-desserts-in-the-country.html http://newyork.grubstreet.com/2012/02/101-best-new-desserts-in-the-country.html#comment-list Grub Guide Fri, 10 Feb 2012 14:30:00 GMT http://newyork.grubstreet.com/2012/02/101-best-new-desserts-in-the-country.html <p>&#8226; Michelle Obama is bringing her focus on nutrition to troops, since "obese Americans in the military are a national security hazard," as this article says.

The point is to get inspired." These days, he's moved on from <em>Vice</em>, but still scribes a <a href=" http://streetbonersandtvcarnage.com/">daily street-fashion critique</a>. What little free time he has &#8212; between his day job at the <a href="http://roosternewyork.com/">Rooster New York</a> ad agency (which he co-founded), promoting his new memoir <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/How-Piss-Public-Rebellion-Adulthood/dp/1451614179/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328815439&sr=8-1">How to Piss In Public</a></em>, writing a column for the libertarian webzine <a href="http://takimag.com">Taki's Magazine</a> and acting as a professional provocateur on the Fox News show <em>Red Eye</em> &#8212; is spent hanging with his wife and two "midget roommates" (a son and daughter, ages 3 and 5), who he says dictate his diet of "shit food 50 percent of the time." You can catch him tonight at UCB's"<a href="http://newyork.ucbtheatre.com/shows/view/2836">Funny Stories</a>" but first, read about Wolverine-shaped pancakes and the joys of having a Scottish stomach in this week's New York Diet.</p> <p><strong>Friday, February 3</strong><br /> I woke up to my wife telling me she&#8217;s leaving. She was heading to our place upstate and she was taking the kids with her. I couldn&#8217;t come because I was going to appear on the Fox News show <em>Red Eye</em> that night with the lovely Ann Coulter, so I kissed them good-bye and put a Dunkin' Donuts K-cup in the Kuerig.</p> <p>For lunch, I went to a surf place near my office called <a href=" http://nymag.com/listings/restaurant/ditch-plains/">Ditch Plains</a>. My business partner and I split one hot dog order because it&#8217;s two dogs (one covered in mac 'n' cheese and one covered in sloppy joe) on a huge bed of fries. We had a Lion&#8217;s Head ale each and were so stuffed by the end, we had to pay a homeless man to roll us back to work.</p> <p>That evening, I came home to an empty house and in the fridge there were some strange-looking meat cubes in a takeout container. I smelled those and then ate them. I also inhaled a container of cold spaghetti I found behind the Go-Gurt.</p> <p>The show <a href="http://www.mediaite.com/tv/ann-coulter-clarifies-the-first-amendment-on-red-eye-getting-off-isnt-speech/">went well</a> and we all went out for drinks afterward at the <a href="http://nymag.com/listings/restaurant/pig-n-whistle/">Pig 'n' Whistle</a> with Ann. I drink Guinness with a Maker&#8217;s Mark on the rocks as a chaser and I probably had several of each. I remember Coulter saying, &#8220;What&#8217;s with all your tattoos? Have you not always had a high IQ?&#8221; but not much else.</p> <p><strong>Saturday, February 4</strong><br /> I took a car service across the river to Hoboken ($47) and took the train two hours upstate ($20). I bought a large coffee &#8212; taken with milk and sugar, because men who drink black coffee are just trying to be badasses &#8212; and some carrot cake at the station, but felt too hungover to eat it.</p> <p>When I met the family upstate my wife told me she had the flu and had been puking all day. I told her I never get sick because germs can&#8217;t survive in my pickled body. It&#8217;s like throwing a ladybug in the fireplace. She wasn&#8217;t in the mood to chat so I took the kids to a neighbor&#8217;s house because his kids are around the same age. He was making homemade pizza and, excluding double dares, it was the most disgusting thing I&#8217;ve ever eaten in my life. (The most disgusting thing I've eaten on a dare was a spider. But if you put it in the back of your mouth, it just goes down pretty quick.) The dough was undercooked and tasted like wet Wonder Bread. The sauce was just squished tomatoes and the cheese was just fat slices of mozzarella. I ate it because I was starved, but none of the kids could get it down without dry-heaving so he made them some PB&amp;Js. I think he was stoned.</p> <p>We got back closer to 6 p.m. and the missus felt better. She made us fancy organic hamburgers with a couple of nice salads &#8212; one was arugula, sesame seeds, tomatoes; the other was baby greens, sunflower seeds, avocado, and heart of palm &#8212; and roasted potatoes. I thought it was delicious and the kids liked it, too, which is rare.</p> <p><strong>Sunday, February 5</strong><br /> Sunday is mommy-lie-in day and I always make the kids pancakes. I learned from <a href="http://www.jimspancakes.com/">Jim&#8217;s Pancakes</a> the secret to doing cool shapes is to put the mix in a squeeze tube like what ketchup comes in. I made my son <a href="http://pixel.nymag.com/imgs/daily/grub/2012/02/09/09_wolverinepancakes.o.jpg/a_560x375.jpg">a Wolverine face that looked more like a gay devil</a> and I made my daughter a Simba that was much better. Later, I made a batch of small ones with a crumpled up raspberry in the center of each. The kids weren&#8217;t interested so I ate them. They looked like used Maxi Pads but tasted WAY better.</p> <p>Around noon I had some &#8220;Terrys.&#8221; It&#8217;s a dish created by Terry Richardson that involves slices of tomato, avocado, mayo, and cheese on top of toasted English Muffins (by the way, if your sandwich doesn&#8217;t involve bread that&#8217;s toasted, I ain&#8217;t interested). I like to add some banana peppers and salt and pepper into the mix. After two of these, I had some &#8220;Gavins,&#8221; which is my own recipe and involves dipping salt and vinegar chips in sour cream. This was the most stuffed I had been since the Ditch Plains incident on Monday.</p> <p>Good restaurants are few and far between near our country place but there is one called <a href="http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/220/1086000/restaurant/Middletown/Bakers-Tap-Room-Barryville">Baker&#8217;s Tap</a> that we went to for dinner that evening. I asked for something called the &#8220;BLT pie&#8221; and got in a fight with my wife after I saw she ordered a &#8220;roasted salad&#8221; and a big pizza for the kids <i>and</i> a huge appetizer of Asian pork &#8220;wings&#8221; (split pork shank with Thai sauces). She always orders so much food, we end up going home with piles of leftovers that always just sit in the fridge and rot. She disagreed and things got heated. Then I got hit with a sucker punch.</p> <p>I thought my order was going to be a bacon, lettuce, and tomato version of a chicken pot pie but it was actually a huge pizza pie with BLT ingredients, which I now had to eat because I had just chastised my wife for having eyes bigger than her belly. The next twenty minutes I was on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNyl6gXLMLQ">some <em>Cool Hand Luke</em> shit</a> as I piled slice after slice into my pie hole, just so I could be right.</p> <p><strong>Monday, February 6</strong><br /> We came back to New York late Sunday night. For breakfast I ordered a large coffee and a plain doughnut from the Turkish street vendor outside our office. He asked me how my weekend was and I told him I had undercooked pizza and got into a fight. He said his sucked, too. </p> <p>I had a lunch meeting at <a href="http://www.nyac.org/">NYAC</a> where I downed two Guinnesses and bounced early because I was doing the <a href="http://www.bunchfamily.ca/check-tom-shillues-funny-story-featuring-gavin-mcinnes/">Funny Story</a> show on Sirius XM. At Sirius, I scarfed down two small bags of chips even though they cost about $1.50 each (can you believe that shit?)</p> <p>By the time I got home, I was so hungry I could&#8217;ve eaten out a horse. I didn&#8217;t have to though because my lovely wife had prepared a pork tenderloin with spinach and feta inside. She also served mashed potatoes and arugula salad. I reminded her I&#8217;d be documenting this and she suggested I swap the meal with the incredible <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/15/magazine/recipe-momofuku-bo-ssam.html">Bo Ssam</a> dish she made the previous week. Like all recipes you get from the <em>Times</em>, it takes at least six hours to marinate and another six hours to cook. I lied and said I would because I didn&#8217;t feel like arguing but I didn&#8217;t put it in here because lying is wrong.</p> <p><strong>Tuesday, February 7</strong><br /> I had two coffees at home but had to take my son to school before my morning dump so the next 40 minutes felt like a woman who was pregnant with three bowling balls.</p> <p>For lunch, we went to the <a href="http://nymag.com/listings/bar/the-brooklyneer/">Brooklyneer</a>, which is across the street from our office. They serve great Brooklyn-themed cuisine and I had the Greenpoint Sandwich, which uses the kielbasa from that Polish spot <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/steves-meat-market-brooklyn">Steve&#8217;s</a> where nobody speaks English. The bartender forced us to have some Maker&#8217;s afterwards because &#8220;it&#8217;s good for digestion.&#8221; Fucking bitch.</p> <p>For dinner, the missus made some ravioli, which the kids devoured. The less interesting the meal, the more they like it and vice versa, which pisses me off because every time my wife goes the extra mile, they whine about it. Thanks, dicks, you just discouraged another amazing meal. I put food in their mouths and they take it out of mine.</p> <p>I get screeners because I&#8217;m in the <a href="http://www.wgaeast.org/">WGAE</a> and one of my dad homies came by for a movie night we do once a month. I insisted we go to <a href="http://www.nitehawkcinema.com/screenings.php">Nitehawk</a> first for a drink &#8212; even though we&#8217;ve already seen everything there &#8212; because I wanted to get it on this list (they&#8217;re showing <em>Mad Max</em> there tonight and you can drink in the theater). This was shitty to do because he&#8217;s in AA. I scarfed down a Maker&#8217;s Mark and he had a ginger ale. Then we went back to my place and laughed our fucking heads off at <a href="http://insidemovies.ew.com/2011/09/20/j-edgar-trailer/">Leonardo di Caprio</a> in old-man makeup. I probably had another six beers that night, right in front of him. Not cool.</p> <p><strong>Wednesday, February 8</strong><br /> In the morning, I met the photographer for this column at a Montreal-themed restaurant in Boerum Hill called <a href="http://nymag.com/listings/restaurant/mile-end/">Mile End</a>. I had a Montreal bagel, which is nice and skinny, and not the ginormous dough-ball you New Yorkers eat. I also had poutine, which is a layer of fries, then cheese curds, then gravy, step and repeat into heaven. Every bite you take takes another bite out of your hangover. I ended this pig-out fest with a smoked meat sandwich like the one from Schwartz&#8217;s, which is a place that almost always has an hourlong lineup back home in Canada.
