Mixed Review: Jell-O Instant Pumpkin Spice Pudding

"whipped topping?" why would you ever want to put that stuff in your body? it's full of chemicals and preservatives. yuck. i fail to understand how "whipped topping" could improve anything. what about whipped cream?

Le Fooding Hits Le New York

i would have to disagree with your take on Pelé's steak. I thought the dish was simple, but elegant. I think one should appreciate the difficulty of cooking small cubes of steak to total perfection medium rare. The flavor of the sauce that he squirted on were also spot on. He managed to take finger food to a new level. Along with the Bo Ssam, it was my favorite dish of the night. I liked but did not love the rib. I found the chicken neck to be a bit awkward. Sean Rembold's corn was delish but was hard to eat on that tiny plate and i found the scallop butter to be kind of out of place. I wish that the organizers had thought to put more tables out to facilitate easy eating. But...that said, I loved the event.

New Jersey Dispatch: The Great Wall Supermarket

why did you decide that great wall is the best chinese supermarket in new jersey? it seems like what you are describing is common to all of the enormous chinese grocery stores in central jersey, although some are admittedly better than others. i would nominate asian food center in north plainfield for best chinese super market? there used to be one in edison but it closed because the strip mall was undergoing major renovations. it's practically identical to great wall and has better produce in my opinion...

'New York Times' on the Latest Culinary Fad in Paris: Burgers

the problem with the nytimes article was that all of the parisian burgers were super fancy burgers, haute cuisine burgers, si vous voulez. for more reasonable budgets and without all the pomp, i had an egg-burger conversion experience at le cafe du viaduc in the 12th arrondissement, near gare de lyon. the chef will not make you a cheeseburger even if you beg. "le burger a notre facon" comes with russian dressing, lettuce, tomato, and delicious, high-qualiity euro beef. the egg is cooked over medium so that the yolk forms a sexy bond with the burger. order it "saignant" ("rare") for the full flavor effect of the beef.
