Linzer Cookies

One of my favorite treats are the Linzer Cookies from the Choice Market, which is conveniently located a few blocks from my place. These cookies are fairly light and you don’t feel too guilty after eating them.

Teapot with Green Tea

Lately, I’ve really gotten into tea and especially green tea. I’ve always been and still am a coffee drinker, but I have noticed the profound difference that tea has on me as oppose to coffee. When I drink green tea I usually feel clear, awake and aware. Coffee at times can make me just feel jittery. The tea here is an organic sencha green tea and was brewed in the Japanese cast iron teapot.

The Testament of Mary

I ventured over to Times Square yesterday to see The Testament of Mary. It’s a one woman show starring Fiona Shaw who you may know as the mean aunt in Harry Potter. The show was fantastic and I’d recommend it to anyone. I snapped a few photos while I was waiting to go into the theater. Sometimes you can get some cool stuff with the iPhone hipstamatic.

Mac & Cheese

Macaroni and cheese, always one of my favorite things to eat and a pleasure to photograph as well. This in particular has a blend of Dubliner’s Irish Cheddar, mild cheddar, Edam, garlic, basil, and black pepper.

Thai @ Cafe Chili

Sometimes the best birthdays are the quiet ones spent with loved ones. My fiancé and I went out to my favorite thai restaurant (in the area) in Brooklyn, Cafe Chili (which is around the corner of Court and Bergen Streets).I’ve seen online that they have received mixed reviews, but I have only had great experiences. I indulged in the $3 Singha beer special and started with some vegetarian spring rolls. After that I got the Tofu Massaman Curry and he got the Tofu Pad thai. It was very delicious, well presented and the service was great.
