A Beginner's Guide to Soft Shell Crabs

I thought soft shell crabs were a "Spring" dish more so than a summer dish. No mention that they are typically of the blue claw variety...

Question of the Day: Who Does the Cooking in Your Household?

I'm the cook in the house. Having just purchased a home with a serious kitchen upgrade, I'm a very excited cook.

Alinea's Most Exciting Food

Good call Robert Brown re: "Palate fatigue". Ugh.

'A Passage to (Southern) India'

The only thing I could gather from this was that the mango lassi was good. How were the other dishes? Were any the best version that you've ever had? Were any of them "bad"? Was the lighting too bright (I think it is)? Were the flavors and textures working well together?

Question of the Day: Are You Going Out for New Year's Eve Dinner?

I'll be at the second seating (9pm) at Blue Hill at Stone Barns. Very much looking forward to it.

A Beginner's Guide to Soft Shell Crabs

The best softshell crabs in NY can be had at the Bridge Cafe 279 Water Street. Mayor Koch eats them all the time. His favorite for over a decade. Available as an appetizer or entree. Funny thing is if you order the appetizer you end up ordering the entree because they are just that damn good. The soft shell B.L.T. is like nothing you've ever experienced. A succulent jumbo soft shell crab, a sweet- peppered bacon, sun dried tomato pesto aioli, organic greens, sliced tomatoes on a grilled ciabatta pocket. The B.L.T is only on the lunch menu.

Wow. Only a year? And I thought I came late to the party! When I started posting a few months ago, I just assumed it was a site that had been around for ages, and that somehow it had just been slipping under my radar.

You've done a really great job to make seem like something that's always been here. And what a fantastic ability you have to attract the most fascinating and pleasant members. Double congrats!
