Top 3 Article Round-Up for the Week.
1. "At P. J. Clarke’s, the Bartender of Your Dreams" by Frank Bruni
Made me want to become a bartender, wear a bow tie, sport suspenders, and sip a martini.
2. "Moneyless man reveals how to live a cashless life without starving" by Mark Boyle
Eco and recession friendly advice. This article keeps you grounded. No pun intended.
3. "The 101 Best Sandwiches in New York" by Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld.
#93 Bombay Pav Vada, Sukhadia’s "This deep-fried potato-and-chickpea croquette, painted with chutneys and smushed inside your choice of a burger bun or what looks like a KFC dinner roll, is strictly vegetarian and may be worse for you than a Big Mac. $4"
#76 Falafel, Taïm "The humble chickpea may achieve no higher station in legume life than as a Taïm falafel — herb-dappled, fried to order, and stuffed into puffy grilled pita. $5.25"
#21 Chicken Parm, Torrisi Italian Specialties "A proud standard-bearer of the red-sauce tradition: Progresso bread-crumbed, draped with homemade mozzarella, and crowned with fresh basil inside a soft Italian roll. $7"
#7 Scuttlebutt, Saltie "Salted, dimpled focaccia wedges barely contain an absurdly unwieldy Technicolor medley of vegetables, feta, and eggs. $9"
#1 Smoked Brisket, Fatty ’Cue "Together at last: Brandt Beef brisket and Cabot clothbound Cheddar (both house-smoked) with pickled onions, aïoli, chile jam, and cilantro on toasted Parisi bread. So fiendishly good it’s offered on the weekend late-night menu only, lest they sell nothing else and have to change the name to Fatty Sandwich. $10"

i simply refuse to order a sandwich named a "Saltie" at a place called "Scuttlebutt"; i feel this requires no further explanation.
