This seems strange and nuts to me: as long as they’re single-occupancy, why can’t they be unisex? Cofffee shops all over the country (including Ohio) have unisex bathrooms denoted with a male | female | wheelchair signs—why can’t a restaurant serving liquor?

I checked out the pic of the chilaquiles and it looked pretty disappointing. Looks like they had some kind of pork belly shrimp & grits last month.  If it were pork belly and not sausage, it’d be an easy call.

I’m all about the ceiling. The sole pic I could find of the chilaquiles is pretty disappointing, but the yelp review claims it was “super good.” Yelp over-exaggeration may be at play here:

My local, hyper-hipster bagel shop does za’atara bagels that are terrific (and overpriced, not quite up to the level of my favorite shop in NYC).

I go there at 7:30am on the weekends so as to avoid the hipster rush.

Yeah, it’s a good (but not overly ambitious) Modern American-style restaurant.  It’s a pretty difficult call--if one of my friends gets one of my choices, I’ll get the other one and maybe see if I can grab a bite of his/hers.

A near-complete sweep by Allison this week! Biscuits are better better than any combination of doughy, mapled syruped mess, and chilaquiles and shrimp& grits provide some much needed color/spice/alternative texture to our breakfast rotation.

Question for everyone: I’m dining at a brunch spot next week at a location

Glad to see that Amar’e Stoudemire found a second career after basketball.

I use the Costco website when buying tires since you have to make an appointment to get them installed. Michelins are almost always on some sort of sale, installation is included, and tire rotations are free. Costco also replaced one of my tires for free once because I blew out a tire because of a pothole.

The other

He’s going to use the rest as a bat donut to snack on while he’s on deck--admirable foresight.

I was hoping to find a gif for this, but this will have to do:

Seriously, that is a terrible food photograph. Terrible lighting, showing way too much of a (bland) background, and probably needs to be cropped by 2/3 just to give us more detail on the actual pizza.  The 16:9 ratio of the photo and (what seems) low-res makes me think this might have even been shot on a smartphone. 

The former White Soxis at best an average runner, but there wasn’t even a play at the plate as he scored an outright robbery of a run to put the Rays up 2-0.

I think this is just a testament to how versatile the tortilla is as a delivery vehicle. I’ve been binge-watching Food Truck Road Race the past week, and what’s struck me is how many of the successful trucks do some sort of taco.

Tortillas can accommodate all kinds of food (meat, veggies) prepared in all sorts of ways

Somewhere, Jacoby Ellsbury is just quietly sitting on his front porch, helping the Yankees collect insurance money.

Don’t sell yourself short, everyone gets hunger pangs!

Eating well is the best revenge.  I don’t talk to that roommate anymore.

I’ll your see “Oh la la” and add some Kinks to the list of sunny afternoon songs.  Though for sheer beauty, “Waterloo Sunset” is my favorite.

Yeah, I’m grateful that Kevin told us the name of the shop—I’ve been meaning to go to Hong Kong for a long time—but while I’m sure I could be trusted with this information (because I am very responsible /s), it’s literally a hole in the wall that might get overwhelmed.

Then again, there is a lot of pork hanging by

Typing is hard.

Going be a word nazi: it’s tonkatsu. Tonkotsu is pork bone (broth). It’s a big distinction.

By in large I like Bourdain/Chang, but they’re partly responsible for the fetishization of Japanese cuisine as well as the troves of tourists going to the same Tokyo restaurants like Afuri, which serves up decent but gimmicky,
