Jealousy, shame, horror!

Those were my reactions to Paris-based Alexander Lobrano’s list of New York food he misses for Tuesday’s posting on The Moment.

I dunno—I already found places for bagels and “American pancakes” and it seems there is so much ethnic food as well as buzzed-up restaurants. The list surprised me.

But yesterday’s insights on unbeatable French goodies were more inspiring. And hopeful since I’m one-week new to the city. I’m putting a good dent in it, too, since I’ve already had Arnaud Delmontel’s bread, Pierre Hermé’s macaroons, an obscene amount of chicken (almost daily) and naturallement, I’m dining alone.
