Best Challah in the city?

I know it's too late for Rosh Hashanah, but perhaps for Yom Kippur -- check out Bruce's on 57th St. and 1st Ave. Best challah I've had in the city without a doubt.

Dinner Tonight: Alice Waters's Carrot Soup

This recipe looks nice and easy. I think I have everything at home, except I have rosemary instead of thyme. Anyone have any thoughts on how this would turn out? I'm thinking it'd be okay, but curious what others think. Thanks!

Ideas for Using Pickled Daikon (Radish)?

That's a great idea, thanks. I actually picked up some soba on the same visit to the Japanese market when I got the daikon).

Doughnut Plant's Creme Brulee Doughnuts

I have not seen the Throwdown episode, although I have heard that it wasn't the owner's (Mark Israel) best moment. I will say that I had the opportunity recently to meet Mark at Doughnut Plant and try some doughnuts and I left with a great impression of Mark. This man is truly passionate about his doughnuts! Plus, his story of how he started out is pretty neat - check out the history section on doughnutplan.com

Of course, my impression of him is helped by the fact that he's making what I consider to be the best doughnuts around.

thinking of starting a "supper club", advice needed.

Check out this great article that appeared in the NY Times this past August. I recently went to the Undergrounds Unite dinner here in NYC. It was 5 different supper clubs that came together to put on a big dinner. It was a fantastic event and showed how much interest there is in the supper clubs. As someone who goes to the supper clubs (as opposed to hosts), I can say that I am happy to bring wine/drinks and also contribute $$ (I don't expect that the chef foots the bill).

I would, however, be wary of potential health code/regulatory issues.

Thanks! I just called to confirm: they are indeed still in pick-your-own apple season.

Rohoboth Beach, Delaware

Nicola's Pizza. Make sure to get a nic-a-boli. You'll likely have wait, but I assure you it's well worth it. Great family history there and the food is amazing.

Hummus in the freezer?

I freeze hummus. It's not 100% right on (in terms of taste and consistency) after defrosting, but pretty close. I've made it ahead of time for a party, freezed it and defrosted for the party. Seemed to go over quite well!
