Owner Thomas Cardaccia and chef Antoine Pelhate will soon debut Les Jardins de la Duchesse at 138 Orchard Street in NYC. Who the hell knew there were éclair aficionados? You can see a sample menu they have on their website over here.

They'll have sweet as well as savory éclairs (like the bacon-wrapped goat cheese one pictured above). Have you ever heard of a savory éclair? Is that a thing? Am I not French enough to have that kind of knowledge? Either way, they look phenomenal. I will definitely give this place a try when they open.

“If you enjoy free appetizers at restaurants, show up really early for when you’re meeting someone. You’ll look so pathetic waiting for a really long time that they’re 80% likely to comp you something. This has happened to me twice. It’s a thing.”
As you already know, my babefriend Jenn recently finished her first book tour. And while she was away, she brought me back some chocolates from a place called Moonstruck Chocolate Co. located in Portland, Oregon. The best (/most memorable) piece of chocolate I've had in a very long time was their Popping Praline that was amongst the Monster Mash Collection.
It was tasty as hell and actually popped in my mouth - yeah, popping chocolate. I don't get it either. Not sure how anyone can make popping chocolate but I'm going to assume it has something to do with science.
If you find yourself in Portland, OR - go check this place out. I'm sure there are other chocolate anomalies existing inside.

Before I begin, let me start by saying that you can't get this sandwich at Murray's Cheese Bar. No, no - this one is only available in their cheese shop next door. And no, that's not a typo - a BBLT is a Burrata Bacon Lettuce Tomato sandwich, you rube! And here it is.
The BBLT at Murray's Cheese Shop
Whenever I find myself in the West Village, it's always a hard decision for me to choose this baby or that baby to feast upon. Also, you have to keep in mind that to encounter any kind of burrata dish under $10 is a FEAT in this city.
Definitely try this if you've ever ordered a BLT anywhere in the history of the planet. The extra B really puts it over the top and makes it crazy delicious.
“These handy clips let you quickly attach anything to brick without in any way damaging either the bricks or the mortar bond. Great for tying up vines, holding a trellis in place, or hanging wreaths on a brick wall. Clips securely snap in place by hand and each can hold up to 25 lb — no tools are needed for installation.”
I'm convinced that there are answers to every single one of life's problems, it's just a matter of finding those answers. This clip? Such a genius idea. Already bought two packs. They're $9/per 4-pack, which isn't crazy at all considering it's such a specialty item.
Of course this pumpkin-punch-bowl idea comes from Martha Stewart. OF COURSE IT DOES. She's better than us all - when it comes to parties and when it comes to living.
