NYSD Dining

Tonight was leftover chili. Normally I post a staple recipe in our household in lieu of a new dinner, but tonight (mainly because I'm unbelievably lazy), I'm sharing a favorite site. At my last job, a co-worker would send what we came to call "food porn," a little culinary break for the day. My favorite snippets were from New York Social Diary's Dining ("bits and morsels") section. It's perfect--just a few descriptive words, a little backstory, and loads of food pictures. And the pictures were, and still are, what make it so much fun. No food styling, nothing fancy--it's just someone with a nice camera taking a picture of food as it is, sometimes with teeth marks in it. So you know it's from the perspective of someone who genuinely enjoys food. There are pictures of foie gras, then grilled cheese, pate to tater tots. It's like a little present every week (the site is usually updated on Wednesdays). And if you're a fan of trips to NYC like I am, then you'll practically covet these little segments. For more tasty treats, click on the Archives link below the masthead and find the Dining section.
