An Introduction to Our Food Blog

New York City is blessed with somewhere near 7 billion restaurants.  This is also a curse.  Too often, avid foodies, like us, find ourselves returning to a restaurant that was awful, because it had been a few years, and we'd forgotten; or find ourselves skipping one that was truly good, because we forgot that too.  What ends up happening is, people stick to the same few restaurants they know and trust.  But half the fun of living in this great town is experiencing all the different tastes.

But with the culinary delights comes— more often than not, unfortunately— the gastronomic consequences.  And while there are a myriad of food blogs, and review sites out there, we've yet to see one take the view from, well, the rear.  This blog is dedicated to our taste-bud excursions throughout NYC.  Herein, we will discuss the atmosphere, service, and style, but mostly the TASTE!  And we will pepper it all with our usual acerbic wit and whimsy.

Our unique rating system will (hopefully) help you determine a good spot to grab a bite, and help us remember where not to.  The system is quite simple.  We simply rate how long it takes this:
