Di Fara: Rant and Response
Two more quick things...
Just kidding Claire! I kid because I love. :-)
and...
I do think it's valid to say that DiFara's isn't as good as it used to be. If you loved it, but think that maybe it's slipping. Fine. Or maybe you had one bad experience? Not every pizza can be perfect. But to say it's bad and has always been bad is just crazy talk!

God I love buffets. That looks goooooood
In-N-Out vs. Five Guys vs. Shake Shack: The First Bi-Coastal Side-By-Side Taste Test
I'm pretty sure you could have come to these exact same conclusions without leaving the burgers out overnight!
Shake Shack's fries are terrible, and Five Guys fries are amazing. And Five Guys has grilled mushrooms and jalapenos. And Shake Shack doesn't have any grilled toppings... So I think the overall scores don't really reflect the overall experience of eating at the three places.
I still agree with you that Shake Shack makes the best burger, but I don't think the overall experience of eating at Five Guys is as bad as your overall score would indicate. I think the real purpose of a side by side analysis is to determine where you would go if all three of these places were located right next to each other... and for me I think it would be a three way tie.

About Zach Brooks
Website: http://www.midtownlunch.com
Location: New York, NY
About: "Fat man, likes food" sums it up. You can find me eating lunch in Midtown Manahattan and posting about it on my site midtownlunch.com.
Favorite foods: I discriminate against no food. Although I am partial to the Asian cusines... and pork. Combine the two, and I'm in heaven (which explains my obsession with the Momofuku restaurants here in NYC.)
Last bite on earth: A pill that makes you keep living? Barring that, I would probably want to eat at some sort of Asian all you can eat buffet- but if you are literally talking about one last bite, it would probably be a perfectly cooked piece of crispy pork skin

I really want to make this, but 2 1/2 pounds is too small. What adjustments would you make to the recipe if the brisket was twice as large?
