Hey SE, we need some recession, non-foodie friendly options here. Please.

People aren't eating those blooming onions once a year.

I like Popeye's, when they do it right. The one store that cooked it right consistently closed down. Very upsetting as the one in my neighborhood sucks.

Don't discount what Kimball said. It not only applies to the demise of Gourmet Magazine, but to the news/journalism in general.

When I go to Dallas I only order the crispy chicken wings, the corn and the cornbread and for drinks the the regular pina colada. I can't believe you thought the fries were better than Shake Shacks. The ones at Dallas get cold and hard pretty fast and so does the rice.

@pingarino: never in a million years would I call Dallas the filthiest restaurant in NYC. That mess you see on the tables are people who enjoyed their food and their time. The plates are big, the servings are big and people share from each others plate. In my experience, the bus boys at this restaurant clean up pretty fast and they also sweep before anyone is seated.

And I saw someone else call this a hole in the wall. Say what? Yes a hole in the wall with giant plasma tv's, clean bathrooms and great big windows so that you can people watch. It's not a fancy place, but it is pleasant and spacious.

@Silvia, once I finish this cheese, I'm going to try the Fog.

@italian: I'm trying to open my world and that includes trying things I may not have had interest in before. Prior to this site, I never ever stepped into the cheese section of any store - well I did hit the Kraft cheese section-and now the cheese section fascinates me.

@squeeze: I thought about that, but the word looked better with an explanation point (yes, I know, weird.)

In any case, I'm still open to suggestions.

@Gargupie: Eat it. I am of the school that it's not fat that makes you fat, it's all the sugar and white carbs that are glopped on it. Have it along with the meat, it's yummy.

Are all capers equal?

I went to the Fairway on 74th and I did not see it. What section did you see it in? I checked where they keep the other prosciutto and didn't see it. Is it at the meat counter or something?

@Pooch: I'll try, but the places I checked were listed on their website.
