Insane in the Bahrain | The Confined Nomad
https://confinednomad.wordpress.com/2009/02/22/insane-in-the-bahrain
Eating the UN, A-Z, without ever leaving NYC. Insane in the Bahrain. February 22, 2009. Those people are too rich. They don’t need to leave their country.” Fair enough. Bahrain is a tiny island nation in the Persian Gulf. It’s one million residents live on a total of 253 sq miles, which covers thirty-three islands. In fact, according to one source. The entire archipelago has less total land than the nearby King Fahd International Airport in Saudi Arabia. That just seems like one big airport to me. Bahrai...

Aussie peas and pies | The Confined Nomad
https://confinednomad.wordpress.com/2009/01/17/aussie-peas-and-pies
Eating the UN, A-Z, without ever leaving NYC. Aussie peas and pies. January 17, 2009. I wasn’t all that crazy about the idea of eating Australian food. In spite of my wife’s experience in the middle of last year chronicled here, I associated Aussie food with bloomin’ onions, soggy fish and chips and Foster’s beer. After finishing dinner at the Tuck Shop. On First Street and First Avenue in the East Village, my prejudices, like most, withered in the face of the genuine article. February 3, 2009 at 2:39 pm.

End of A’s | The Confined Nomad
https://confinednomad.wordpress.com/2009/01/28/end-of-as
Eating the UN, A-Z, without ever leaving NYC. End of A’s. January 28, 2009. Well folks, we have terminated the first letter of the alphabet in our global gastronomical armageddon, and the last A may just have been the best. After traipsing from borough to borough (plus Elizabeth, New Jersey) for our first 11 countries, we needed look no farther for Azerbaijan than Cafe Sim-sim, 312 Ditmas Ave. in our own neighborhood of Kensington, Brooklyn. You give me what you have.” We finally both agreed th...When it...

Special Report: Southern BBQ Tour (aka Pork Fest 2008) | The Confined Nomad
https://confinednomad.wordpress.com/2009/01/06/special-report-southern-bbq-tour-aka-pork-fest-2008
Eating the UN, A-Z, without ever leaving NYC. Special Report: Southern BBQ Tour (aka Pork Fest 2008). January 6, 2009. 3200 miles in a 1992 Toyota Corolla. Pork, pork, and more pork. There is no way we could choose a best overall; the styles are just too different. Besides, comparing North Carolina and Memphis BBQ is like comparing apples and oranges (or, uh, pulled pork and ribs). But a clear winner in each category did emerge. Here were our favorites:. Coarse chopped pork and slaw at Lexington BBQ.

Crowd pleasing Austrian fare in the LES | The Confined Nomad
https://confinednomad.wordpress.com/2009/01/17/crowd-pleasing-austrian-fare-in-the-les
Eating the UN, A-Z, without ever leaving NYC. Crowd pleasing Austrian fare in the LES. January 17, 2009. On another one of those bitterly cold, snowy nights we’ve been experiencing so often this winter, we ventured out of the warmth of our Brooklyn residences and made the trek to the Lower East Side, where we met two friends at Cafe Katja. Despite the crowd encroaching on us, we took our time and sampled as much of the menu as possible. This slow dining experience was facilitated by the slight delay ...
