FOB Chicken Adobo
Its that time of the year. Game of Thrones season. I got my GOT beer and i’m ready to rock and roll through what seems like a terrible winter. Or just winter! I’m not quite sure what “terrible” means in GOT standards but it sounds like pretty bad-ass. As in more than two months of 10 inches of snow total.
Its also time to update the legendary, ultra exclusive (according to Harvard) Z-List. That is 50 of my favorite restaurants in the city. If it looks rather random to some, good. Thats the point. Eater’s Essential List doesnt seem very Essential either. Its simply my way of answering “what should we eat while in NYC” to 99% of those questioning. None of these costs more than $100 or less than $10 so that eliminates a good chunk. The changes:
In – Pinch Chinese, Gloria, FOB, Via Carota, Hearth, Timna
Out:
Biang! – Closed (miss it terribly)
Annisa – Closed
Empellon Taqueria – Just dont care for it as much as I used to.
Mission Chinese food – A little too hit or miss for me these days
Nargis Cafe – Still great, but out of reach for most of my audience
Zizi Limona – Stopped going pretty much since Mesika left
Congratulations to the winners and the entire 2017 class. You did it!
