Sake bar in East Village, NYC?
hedeh is alright. But can be pretty quiet, which can be good or bad. I also like the bar under bond street, which isn't strictly a sake bar (and may be on fire), but certainly has plenty of sake available.
p.s. is it just me or has anyone else noticed a sake explosion in the last few months?
Seasoning enamel cookware?
Seasoning has been a major nightmare for me. About a year ago I bought a new cast iron skillet and tried to season it by following the instructions that came with the thing. All that got me was tons of smoke and a gross and incompletely seasoned pan. I tried again, several times, and never got to that real beautiful black that I'd grown up with. Does anyone know places that sell second hand or pre-seasoned cookware in new york.
Magnolia Cupcakes in NYC--Overrated or Underrated?
Magnolia is way overrated in my book, especially when you have seriously authentic bakery competition not more than three or four blocks away (claude's and roccos). Give me a canoli or a caramel cream puff any day. And for cupcakes, I am a big advocate of the cupcake cafe.

Penne with red peppers and goat cheese. From marcella cucina. So good.
