Serious Eats: Kismetized's Profile

The styrofoam box of shrimp & fixings doesn't look like anything special, but that fish sandwich looks like a beast. For $4, I would be all over that 'ish.

Pizza Snacks: SuperPretzel Pretzelfils

I actually dig the regular frozen super pretzels that you can buy in the frozen aisle. They bake up nice and are a good snack to accompany a baseball game if you throw together a quick cheese or mustard sauce.

A Sandwich a Day: Fried Cauliflower at Rainbow Falafel & Shawarma

That looks like my kinda vegetarian sandwich. I dated a vegetarian guy for years in college, and I always found myself eating at shwarma joints with him. I have to echo the comments of serious b, though. I am spoiled by numerous $3 falafel joints in my area. $4.75 for cauliflower is more than I am used to paying for a meatless sandwich.

The Pizzaburger at NYC's Soup Burg

I've always been tempted to order a pizza burger, but I always end up sticking with traditional toppings. I guess In the end, I am not a fan of fusion cuisines. I'll keep my pizza and hamburgers separate!

Taco Thursdays: Rockaway Taco, Queens

Holy schnikies, that fish taco looks good! I would pass on the tofu and meat offerings if they are dressed like the fish taco, but it looks like they got the fish tacos right. Fish looks plump & and the veggies appear fresh. The plantain & bean concoction sounds delicious, too.

Sugar Rush: Raspberry Eclair at Financier

That looks better than sex with those fresh raspberries and pastry. Might have to make a special trip for that one.

Street Food: Donatella's Meatball Wagon

Hmm, a meatball panini? The flavors sound good, but the sandwich just looks too unruly and messy. Messy sandwiches that aren't constructed well drive me crazy.

Chick-fil-A's Spicy Chicken Sandwich

That looks shockingly good for a fast food sandwich. If Chick-Fil-A's were abound in Queens, I would definitely be trying one.

The Brunch Dish: DIY Waffles at Artopolis Espresso

That looks unreal. Kind of like apple pie a la mode for breakfast but with waffles. I am having brunch tomorrow, I can only hope the place I visit has such a sinful creation.

Slice Poll: Do You Order Half-and-Half Pizzas?

I used to date a vegetarian, so unfortunately I had to limit my meat toppings to half the pie for a good 4 years of my life. I don't miss those days. I am a sausage & olive type of gal, sometimes I will get some roasted red peppers too!

Slice Poll: Do You Blot the Grease from Your Pizza?

Never. If you need to blot your pizza, you need to find a new pizzeria.

Taste Test: Hot Dogs

Surprised you guys didn't include Thumann's in this list. Aside from the natural casing Boar's Head, those are my favorite. I can't deal with skinless dogs, too mushy and reminiscent of bologna.

Taste Test: Kettle-Cooked Potato Chips

Cape Cod Dark Russetts are my favorite. It's like a whole bag of burnt chips :)

Tasting the New Concretes from Theater District Shake Shack

I am confused, I have never heard of a dessert called a concrete before. Shakes with toppings broken up inside? Not sure if I would enjoy it or not, but everything seems to be good from Shake Shack. I've only tried the burger and Chicago dog so far.

A Sandwich A Day: 'The Firehouse' at Defonte's

Whatttt?! Roasted pork, eggplant AND broccoli rabe? This might be the most delectable sandwich I've seen you feature in this series. If I could eat any of them, this would be it!

A Sandwich A Day: Mellawach at Hoomoos Asli

That wrap around the sandwich looks quite interesting, I'll have to add it to my list of sandwiches to try. You can never go wrong with hummus, hard boiled egg, and Israeli salad.
