Episode 6: Anthony’s Cookies

Tue, 02 Jun 2009 05:48:00 GMT

Lots of hype around this cookie place – when it opened a few weeks ago, the line to get in the door was around the block! I actually went on opening day, but didn’t have the time to stand in line (I’m a VERY busy guy, you see…) so made an appointment with Anthony’s PR guy, Ahsha, and came back. I was there on Thursday of last week and got to go behind the counter and taste three of his cookies and interview the cookie man himself. Check it out:

Tue, 02 Jun 2009 05:38:00 GMT

Located on Harrison at 24th Street in SF, Humphry Slocombe Ice Cream opened about three months ago and has been wowing locals with some amazing flavors of real, solid, no fakey fake ice cream. I popped on over there to taste a few flavors: Secret Breakfast, Strawberry Jalapeno and Boccolone Prosciutto. This place is a must if you are an ice cream fan… heck it’s a must period – Crazy stuff – check it out!

Episode 3: The Ferry Building in SF

Tue, 02 Jun 2009 05:34:00 GMT

This go around I swung down to the Ferry Building on the Embarcadero in San Francisco. The goal was to hit up a pâtisserie called Miette, to try some of their Macarons (which is the correct spelling, despite my giving the sales associate a hard time – these are not to be confused with macaroons…). I tried the hazelnut macaron, the pistachio macaron and some sort of rose-flavored macaron. Pretty tasty stuff! Check it out!

Season 2, Episode 2: South Austin Trailer Park & Eatery

Sat, 23 May 2009 18:26:00 GMT

SXSW brought me to Austin, but it was the trailer park food that caught my attention. The South Austin Trailer Park and Eatery is a lot with three trailers on it – one serving tacos, one serving burgers and one serving desserts. I went for the slider sampler and the green chile cheese fries. Trashy! and goooooood….
