Post-vacation salad
2June 18, 2013 by Fat In Manhattan
I just got back from yet another vacation. Look at me, livin’ the life… No, this is the last one until God knows when. Anyway, “vacation,” in my book, roughly translates to “eat and drink as many delicious things as you can.” So while we were in Bethany Beach, Delaware, we indulged in Dickey’s Frozen Custard, Fisher’s popcorn, happy hour at Mango’s, dinner at Rusty Rudder, dozens of crabs, breakfast at The Frog House, DB Fries and so much more. Phew!
SO tonight for dinner, I made this yummy salad for dinner:
Not just saying “yummy” because I made it; I really did think this was a good salad. It had spinach, kidney beans, black beans (low-sodium, of course!), scallions, avocado, and a shredded cheese (only a little, this is a healthy post-vacation meal, after all). I bought a rotisserie chicken too because it was on sale (and because it’s easier than making chicken). Oh I made dressing (EVOO, red wine vinegar and Dijon mustard), and it emulsified quite nicely.
Who’s going on vacation this summer? What will you be eating at your destination?

Ten best burgers in America
2May 28, 2013 by Fat In Manhattan
CNN’s list of the top ten burgers in America includes THREE right here in NYC. Incidentally, I have a new goal this summer.
The three burgers in NYC are located at Brindle Room, Bill’s Bar and Burger and The Little Owl.

Au Père Louis
Leave a commentMay 22, 2013 by Fat In Manhattan
La Boussole may have been my favorite meal, but we ate at Au Père Louis. Rob and I ate here by ourselves on Tuesday night, and then when my mom’s friend was in town on Friday night, we were looking for somewhere nearby and delicious. So of course we suggested Au Père Louis. I’d been dreaming about this duck steak for the past three days:
