When I was a kid I used to get dried lychee nuts from the Chinese laundries in NYC. I can’t seem to find that out here. I had a Chinese friend who said they probably can’t import them for health reasons. They looked...

Last sat I saw fresh mangosteens on bowery by grand street for $9.00 a LB. That is harder to get. On the other hand, Lychees are everywhere.

I have a pretty good amount of fresh lychee and cannot finish them all before I think they will start to go bad. Has anyone tried freezing them? Should I peel first or leave the skin on? Pitted or not? Or is freezing a bad idea...

to try it. Riso flavor here has a fair sized dose of cinnamon in it. The rice was pretty firm blended into the fluffy gelato. I liked it, but not as much as Naia’s, one of the few things I do like at Naia’s. The Lychee...

texture, and black sesame which had some richness and intensity but an oily near rancid aftertaste. In the end I picked chocolate hazelnut gelato and lychee ice cream. The gelato was ok, though the chocolate component was too weak...

Lavish chocolates make great gifts. Here are our favorites, top to bottom.

Have Florida’s lychees hit chinatown yet? If not, does anyone know when the season begins?
