I am an expat Texan who has lived in New York City for over 11 years. And while I enjoy typical New York City nosh such as bagels, coal-oven pizza and smoked fish, nothing makes me swoon like a heaping plate of the foods I grew up with—Tex-Mex, BBQ and chicken fried steak. I have spent the past years scouring the city for tastes that remind me of home—sometimes successful, sometimes not. This blog is a record of my quest, and other food-related musings that befit a homesick Texan.
I really enjoyed this post titled Independence and Chicken-Fried Steak.
Makes me want to run to my favorite local restaurant. Too bad I can only eat there once every two months, anything more and my heart would give out.
Hmm. I’ve never eaten at Babe’s. I’ll check it out. Which brings me to my next point. It’s time for a new BON questionnaire. What’s your favorite restaurant, who’s your favorite guitarist, something new. Come on you slacker. 😉
