alabama means ribs, ribs means Dreamland BBQ

When in #Alabama, a must visit is #Dreamland BBQ. Humble environment, nice people and even a "No Farting" bright neon sign, exudes class to be sure...AND the best #ribs EVER. @dreamlandbbq

the galleria

Here is The #Galleria, Duomo area in #Milan as mentioned in my previous post. Been there many times, great food.

milan

Went to The Galleria resturant in #Milan in the #Duomo area. Never have ordered vegetable soup anywhere but the rain and weather made this a perfect choice. Huge bowl, big spoon, perfect.

new eats for me in nyc

Decided to try a couple of new places (for me) this past trip into NYC. Too many times I am at the same tried and true places on business meals. I tried Virgil's BBQ and Joe's Pizzeria both on 44th just off Times Square.

Dreamland BBQ in Alabama is by far the best rib BBQ I have ever been to but this is a close second. The atmosphere is chill and the food was fresh but a little overdone, a little dry. I had the combo pork ribs with brisket, mac cheese and cornbread, such large portions too. Totally appreciate the hand towel they give you with dinner. Best thing there as too many BBQ places make you survive with only paper napkins.

Joe's Pizzeria was awesome, recommended by a NYPD buddy of mine who used to walk this beat. We had pizza, garlic knots, fried mozzarela and brushetta. Everything was fresh and delicious. Family style vibe and casual enough for families or informal business for sure. Definitely will stay in the rotation. Check it.

new top chef season

Just saw the promo for Top Chef "Texas", cool, can't wait for that. Maybe we'll see Casey and Trey a bit more. Also just saw the first eps for Top Chef: Just Desserts, cool show, doesn't appear to have any crazy people like season 1 and that Seth guy. Gail is like borderline hot!

cool site

this site has some of the coolest vintage looks and then they have the smarts to lay in out by decade, freaking love it. Check it. Lunettes Online Shop
