Less than a year ago I was introduced to the wonderful world of oysters.  Since then I’ve consumed plenty, but this has certainly the most delicious (and unhealthy) preparation.

Oysters + Deviled Eggs = Love.

Brooklyn Bowl serves up incredible food.  Whether you’re getting the wedge salad, legendary fried chicken, or the pulled pork and pickled peppers pizza lovingly named after my favorite Beach, you’re in for a treat.  But order up their version of oyster shooters and you will NOT be disappointed.  Solid deviled eggs with little mayo, keeping the yolk firm, topped with perfectly fried oysters and tiny peppers to bring some heat, these things should come at least 8 to a plate because once you’ve finished the first 4, you have to order more.

Speaking of, do they deliver to Manhattan?  Like, now?

Just a follow up to my initial CBHC month post.  In honor of Valentine’s Day, the chocolate o’ the day was “Love Potion.”  Not knowing what this entailed but happy to reward myself on this day of love and chocolate, I asked the keeper of drinkable happiness, who advised that it’s the regular hot chocolate, topped with a generous drizzle of liquid fudge, and, of course, a signature marshmallow.  Fat.  Kid.  Heaven.

I’ll have 2, please.

Debris (noun): the bits of meat that fall off the roast and wallow in its gravy during cooking and carving.

I had a fat kid discovery today, and that is debris.  The tenderest, juiciest, most unhealthy meat you’ll ever consume.  But man oh man was it delicious.

Mother’s is the mecca for fat kids roaming New Orleans.  It’s also stumbling distance from the casino, making it the mecca for drunken folk needing grease to soak up the booze.  It’s not shocking this place has been around since 1938.

I took in some debris, an incredible ham and cheese omelet, and one of the flakiest, buttery biscuits I’ve ever eaten, all washed down by a perfectly spicy bloody mary.  A perfect start to what’s sure to be a gluttonous trip.  Wouldn’t be surprised if I pay Mother’s a couple more visits over the next 3 days.

The Walter Foods French Dip.

Remember when you were a kid and people would say “if you love it so much, why don’t you marry it?”  I would elope the shit out of this sandwich.

Maybe if you don’t take “put whatever you want on top” to mean “lots and lots of cheese”

If you’re one of those people who needs excuses for consuming fat kid beverages.  You literally drink melted chocolate bars, not that powder + milk garbage.  This, my friends, is as good as it gets.
