My office potlucks are obscenely wonderful in the quantity, variety and quality of food. I usually splurge on the dish I bring because I know other participants will do the same, but over the past year I’ve noticed (because...

Pik-N-Pay prices 3/28 – 4/3. The spirit of the holidays are upon us and lecavod yom tov prices are rising. Lets hope that when yom tov is over prices go down. Still alot cheaper than other places, as an example I noticed...

Instead of complaining about rising food costs, let’s share some observations about what’s still a good buy. For example, I was at my local natural (almost all organic) grocery’s produce section looking for...

Nice try grinding your own axe, but that’s not what people said. They said the food, breads, and baked goods are really excellent and exceptional. The prices are high, but people still keep going back ... which tells you...

The sandwiches at Hi-Rise, despite the Hi-Prices, are pretty fabulous, even the combinations that sound prosaic. The turkey with avocado, jack and russian dressing, on semolina bread, grilled, may sound like a slightly yuppified...

quality food. Hi Rise is still really good and affordable for HARVARD SQUARE.

I’ve had breakfasts all over the country. Barring gourmet places and elaborate Sunday brunch, my expectations are simple, and not particularly high. Recently I had breakfast – and then many breakfasts – at Rise...

Hi-rise Bakery on Concord: Their sandwiches are sort of not entirely traditional- a wide variety, a few sound unappealing to me. A couple were tasty, a couple fell flat. overall okay....not cheap, like NY sandwich prices. As i...

Usually go to old city when I go to philadelphia for a night out. Always wondered if there was a good spot at a high rise anywhere in philadelphia. Anyone know?

Costco had the best price on the Red Star active dry yeast. I think it was 2 lbs. for about $3 so I had to get it. But, for faster baking, when I need to get it done more quickly, I use the rapid rise.

Perhaps I’m not a foodie like I think I am, but is it normal to tell your patrons at time of reservation, that there is a two hour limit? I frequent RiseNumber1, and I made reservations for Mother’s Day. The hostess...

I think Winterlicious is officially dead, and this was the nail in the coffin. After speaking to several groups of friends and colleagues they have all banned anything ‘licious’. Poor, cheap menus and rising prices...

I noticed that trend in Los Angeles when I lived there a couple of years ago—all the better restaurants (not fast food) were at that price pretty much. Fear trend is headed across country!

From what I’ve read it is corn that is driving the rise in food prices. More corn is going into the production of ethanol for gasoline and less for human food and animal feed. Higher prices for animal feed would make for...

!) — perhaps someone will come by and supply the name. Nice thing about the cantine is that it keeps serving well into the afternoon. In my experience, Venezia is almost a lost cause when it comes to genuinely authentic...
