May sound crazy but I am wondering where to find some unusual dishes or food in NYC restaurants / stores? Anthony Bourdain got cow brain sandwich in India and Fish Eye ball in Quebec, so are there any adventurous food available...

The most challenging meal—and the finest wine pairing—I’ve made in months.

A 19-minute film about turning a pig’s head into testa.

A cemita with everything from La Zandunga doesn’t look much different from the usual cemitas: a seeded roll split and toasted, finger-thick segments of cheese, avocado, thinly sliced white onions, three whole chipotles in...

I heard a rumor floating a while back that the CIA was opening a new facility somewhere in NYC. Anyone know anything about this?

Hi GG, I buy headcheese there all the time! This is the old-schooled head-cheese that I like much more than the vinagery kind at Dean and Deluca and the one at Grand Central. I actually don’t quite like their other ham, but...

Osteria Mozza has very good head cheese – or ``testa,'' as they call it. Craftbar used to have an amazing headcheese prep with fresh oregano, but I think it lest with the last chef. We can always dream, though...

, arista roasted proscuitto and coppa di testa-the Italian version of headcheese or as I like to call it -the “Frankenstein of ham”. They promised to e-mail me when the zibello clears customs (one way or another). I...

My favorite is their headcheese. can’t find the same kind anywhere else.

Cabeza. I said “what are those” and he said head tacos. Hmm. I like headcheese so I figure I would give them a try. WOW!!! These rock!! I am hooked. I am ready to go exploring head tacos. Chowhounds...please let me...

number 1 without the headcheese (I just can’t do it!!!!!!!!!!) is interesting. I was tempted by the huge croissants. Check out baguette express down the street at 400 e. valley blvd.

Finally ventured to Chateaubriand (N Carrollton Ave). Lovely service, nice wine selection by the glass and half-bottle, as well as interesting specials. One appetizer special, a housemade charcuterie plate (pate, headcheese,...
