Rooftop Farms Pickles

I feel very for­tu­nate to live just a few blocks away from one of the best spots in Brook­lyn: Rooftop Farms. I started hear­ing and read­ing about Rooftop Farms when I moved to the neigh­bor­hood almost a year ago.  It wasn’t until this past week­end, how­ever, that I finally took some time to head over and buy some pro­duce at their Sun­day mar­ket.

The one fast food place that I still love to indulge in when I head back south for a visit is Pollo Trop­i­cal. It’s cuban fast food and it is the best grilled chicken and roasted pork (it’s all about the mojo juice mari­nade and sauteed onions). My mouth is water­ing writ­ing this. I could eat every­thing on their menu, except for one thing — the plan­tains. I never really enjoyed plan­tains and grow­ing up in Miami they were everywhere.

My Grand­fa­ther has always been an inspi­ra­tion to me and con­tin­ues to inspire me every­day.  For as long as I can remem­ber, he has been bak­ing incred­i­ble brown­ies, cook­ies, quiches, noo­dle koogles — just to name a few.  I have been for­tu­nate enough to enjoy all of his deli­cious recipes over the past twenty-​​seven years.  Now, with my new-​​found love for cook­ing, I feel for­tu­nate for all of the moments that I get to sit down and chat food, recipes and life with him.

Sage General Store

I heart sum­mer Fri­days at work.  I get out early, meet up with friends, go for a bike ride or stroll around and take in a relax­ing early start to the week­end.  Last Fri­day my friend met me at work and on our way home, we passed through Long Island City and decided to stop for a quick bite at Sage Gen­eral Store.  I am offi­cially a big fan of this place.�
