I do whatever it takes to get a TOMATO TARTE TATIN from FIG and lament about a cake I made that fell. Plus! I use my super sleuth skills to try and figure out who is behind all these exciting new pop ups.

Episode 169: Skewers
I’ve really been making up for lost time and hitting up lots of places to eat. Some of the highlights include BAR ROLLINS, BAR GEORGE, EL MOLINO AND BABAS ON CANNON to name a few. Plus, I mull over why Charleston’s Food Critic leaving her post wasn’t a bigger story?
Episode 162: *Noodz* with Joe and Kevin Nierstedt
I finally muster up the energy to record an episode in 2021. My old pal Joe Nierstedt and my new pal Kev Nierstedt come on the show to discuss their pop-up KATSUBŌ (which I am currently obsessed with. I have nearly perfect attendance!) We talk what makes a ramen broth different from a tradtional stock and how they decided on their John’s Island Hot Chicken concept, Kinfolk. Joe and I are old friends from the NYC days of yore and we touch on why working in restaurants (even fancy ones!) doesn’t actually prepare you for running you own business, like, at all..
Here’s what I order at KATSUBŌ:
Shoyu (Chicken) Ramen add Kimchi and a seasoned egg, Hot Chicken Katsu ( I LOVE CHICKEN OK?) + a coke.
Episode 156: Psycho Candy
Lindsay shares a new Halloween sketch on this months DIGIRIP, tells stories of her childhood halloweens gone by, gives you her favorite apple pie recipe (from Pies and Thighs in Brooklyn) and falls madly in love with Doughboyz Pizza. OH and she challenges us all to think of Steamed Artichokes as the oyster of the plant world.

Episode # 151: Lindsay goes out.
Lindsay gets taken on an epic date by Nikki Fairman and lives to tell the tale. (NOTE: I am deeply sorry for the snap-crackle-popping on this episode. I had a bad mic cord and didn’t know until I had finished recording. Please forgive this assault on your lovely ears)

Lindsay is cursed by the cooking gods and weighs in on an Eater article that slammed Thomas Keller’s TAK Room.
