Just posted on eGullet: an essay about my favorite restaurant ever, the Kabab Cafe. Read it here.

The eGullet link has been over in the sidebar for a while, but if I haven’t thoroughly raved about this site before, I’m doing it now: great essays and fantastic, well-organized forums. Any random question you might have about food or drink can surely be answered by one of the thousands of clever members around the world. For instance, I wondered about where to find creme de violette, et voila , I got incredibly informed answers almost instantly. And the crank factor is very low. Oh yeah, and the eGullet Culinary Institute is genius.
