i love food party

Food Party is a really funny, childishly demented “cooking” show that started out as a video art project in Ohio that has made its way onto IFC.  Hosted by Thu Tranh, it borders on the edge of creative insanity just enough for me to absolutely adore it.  Below is a small portion of an episode, head to the official video page for all the full epi’s.

Upon initial recognition, it sounds either cruel or unhygienic, but its quite the opposite.  In Japan, a relatively new cafe trend has emerged — serving food with the companionship of a pet.  Personally, I don’t prefer to eat around animals, but different strokes…It’s starting to gain momentum in the innovative country and I certainly love specialty shops/cafe/anything that find an interesting niche.  Most of these cafes are for cats, this particular one is for rabbits.  Watch the vid for details, lay-z.

how good? i’d kill a cow to eat this vege burg

So I had the best veggie burger so far in my short span of vegetarianism a few weeks ago in California and to this lonely night, I’m still salivating at its memory.  It was at the Veggie Grill.  There’s only 4 locations, all of which are in Arrrnold’s territory, but I really hope they expand nationwide one day!  I forgot the exact menu name of the burger I got; I think it was just the regular one.  Make sure you get the sweet potater fries.  I hate most friens normally yet these were just yum yams.  Zagat rated, if you don’t trust me.
