Memphis, May I?

Tuesday 25 May 2010

I haven’t been able to complete my story for this week, mostly because I was busy wrapping up my latest piece of Serious Eats! If you haven’t already seen my coverage of the Memphis in May World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest, click through the following series of pieces to learn about the largest pork competition [...]

Bonn’s Immigration Rotation

Monday 24 May 2010

I’ve never understood why immigrants in any country get such a bad rap. Most anti-immigrationists share the mentality that immigrants “need to learn the language!” or that they “took our jobs!” or that they “need to adjust to our way of life!” Yet, you never hear these naysayers yelling, “Take your food back to where [...]

Vaya Con Diego

Thursday 20 May 2010

This is the finale of a series on Mexican food in San Diego. Zach will complete his correspondence from S.D. on his regular, biweekly schedule before leaving for San Francisco, where he will continue to write and edit for The Eaten Path. The very idea of me coming up with a top ten list of [...]

The Wind Beneath Our Wings

Tuesday 18 May 2010

If you’ve done any kind of soul food searching in the borough of Manhattan, you know – or at least have been ordered to accept – that the story of New York City’s best fried chicken begins with Charles Gabriel. I became one of the many who give this kind of order on December 10, [...]

The Eaten Path Heads to Memphis in May!

Tuesday 11 May 2010

Eaters of Earth, I was hoping beyond hope to get my usual New York story up today, but the fact that I leave for the 2010 World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest at 8am tomorrow has placed an all-stop on my regular blogging commitment. While walking along the banks of the Mississippi, I’ll be hanging with [...]

El Viejo y el Marlin

Thursday 6 May 2010

This story is twelfth in a series. Zach will be posting a new story on Mexican food in San Diego every Thursday until he leaves Southern California for the San Francisco Bay, where he will continue to write and edit for The Eaten Path. Bar happy hour menus have taught me two things: 1. Being [...]

Masa en Place

Tuesday 4 May 2010

I am somehow amazed at how eager others are to broadcast where they’re eating. The dead horse lying at the junction of food, place and internet has been beaten to glue in the past few years, but there’s something about the virtual, real-time mapping of New York City that continues to irk me. Big words [...]
