New York, New Fork: Anella
http://anewfork.blogspot.com/2009/07/anella.html
New York, New Fork. Friday, July 24, 2009. My birthday dinner last night was absolutely impeccable. The best thing in the world is when a restaurant opens in your neighborhood, doesn't have their liquor license yet (and is therefore BYOB) and serves amazing Italian fare, including brick oven pizzas. Um, oh yes. I was a happy gal. Main courses, we chose pizzas! Though they do have fish meat pasta selections that I am sure are lovely. I had a meatball pizza with the softest, must succulent slices of meatba...

New York, New Fork: November 2009
http://anewfork.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
New York, New Fork. Thursday, November 5, 2009. I am writing my Food Sociology term paper on the notion of hierarchy within movements, obviously with direct focus on the current food movement. My questions being the following (or some mashup thereof): Is hierarchy (or at least the notion of) necessary to the idea of a movement? Do non-hierarchical movements face a detriment when they go up against highly hierarchical and structural institutions? Go to mark 4:30. Wednesday, November 4, 2009.

New York, New Fork: Stumptown Arrives in NYC
http://anewfork.blogspot.com/2009/09/stumptown-arrives-in-nyc.html
New York, New Fork. Wednesday, September 16, 2009. Stumptown Arrives in NYC. So happy. So happy. So happy that I might even go out for a coffee after work rather than a beer! Shocking, I know. Brief synopsis before I direct you to the brief article in the NYT: Stumptown, started in Portland, is a direct trade. Coffee importer, roaster and distributor. Their dedication to the bean. In the end, this is not an elitist pursuit- it is quite the opposite. Their espresso a their coffee shop in the new (and ...

New York, New Fork: A Taste of School
http://anewfork.blogspot.com/2009/10/taste-of-school.html
New York, New Fork. Wednesday, October 7, 2009. A Taste of School. I am taking a great class called Food Sociology. We are breaking down the food movement and its opposition. We just started a discussion board online for thoughts we have that we don't have time for in class and my professor (who is quite famous and an idol of mine but for now I will leave nameless) posted this article. Is just banal rhetoric meant to propel profits at the expense of people's happiness and health. And, in this sense, I wo...

New York, New Fork: Sad Truth
http://anewfork.blogspot.com/2009/07/sad-truth.html
New York, New Fork. Tuesday, July 28, 2009. USA Today reports that last year we Americans spent $147 billion - billion! On conditions related to obesity. Obese persons have medical bills 42 percent higher than those of normal weight. The surge in obesity may be related to modern industrial agriculture, including the use of chemicals such as endocrine disruptors. So the ag system produces cheap food, yes, but may impose other costs - time for a rethink. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

New York, New Fork: February 2010
http://anewfork.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
New York, New Fork. Tuesday, February 23, 2010. For my Ethical Controversies class this week, we read Peter Singer and Jim Mason's book The Ethics of What We Eat. Formerly known as The Way We Eat. Which was a compelling prequel to Eating Animals. The heart of this section seems to be the question that Singer and Mason state on page 132, “What is the ethical response to such a state of uncertainty? First, do not self-aggrandize and think that you are the end-all be-all perfect consumer and global citizen ...

New York, New Fork: Hummus.
http://anewfork.blogspot.com/2009/07/hummus.html
New York, New Fork. Monday, July 27, 2009. First things first, you probably don't need two full cans of beans. It filled our food processor to the top and made way too much hummus. I always over-make. But, as we started to add stuff I forgot about quantity and focused on quality. We simply added fresh lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic. Then we added more garlic. Then more. When he wasn't looking, I would throw more in and when I wasn't looking, he'd throw more in. July 31, 2009 at 10:11 PM.
