This is cheesecake from The Hummus Place on the Upper West Side. It may have been one of their vegan desserts, I'm not sure. It was so light and fluffy, which is a plus because I don't like cheesecake that is heavy and slimy. It was also very light in flavor, without that cloying sourness that cheesecake often has.
A slice of white sheetcake from Food Extortion, I mean, Food Emporium. It's pretty good for a basic dessert or when you just want sugar. The frosting has that gritty feel to it, which I LOVE. When I make homemade frosting it's gritty like that, learned that from Mom.
Frozen Custard from Rita's on the UWS. It didn't do much for me, I'd take a Mr. Softee cone for about a quarter of the price any day. But the nephew and niece like the blended drinks there, so maybe that's their forte at Rita's.
I like looking at photos of food. I like taking photos of food. I think other people do, too. Please enjoy my pictures!

Sabich
Oy vey, the famous sabich! This is a Middle Eastern Sandwich - a pita stuffed with grilled eggplant, hummus, a hard-boiled egg, various chopped salads, sauces, and pickles. This one is from The Hummus Place on the Upper West Side. The first one I ever had was from a tiny food stand in Tel Aviv on Dizengoff and Frischmann, and it blew my little mind. You can also get a delicious one at Cafe Taim in the West Village.
