Leopold's Kafe with Joyce

So Joyce and I visited Leopold's Kafe wayyyyyyy back in the day for some delicious Austrian fare (with a flair?) Heehee. I really don't know too much about Austrian food, the chief memory that I have about it being that terribly awkward scene in the movie Amadeus when Salieri offers sweets to Mozart's young and naive little wife. When she asks what they are, he goes, "Nipples of Venus!" and then she giggles because she's uncomfortable but still wants to have one.

I think this is Salieri's hand holding the dish.

In any case...



Joyce's mushroom tart.

My croque monsieur.



Delicious little pastries captured at an awkward angle!

There were macarons in the display case!

A Really Overdue Post!

I finally got a new USB cord for my camera! And so, here are photos from the summer of last year (eek!)


I went to Shake Shack sometime in August for the first time, after having heard many strange and wonderful things about it...I'm making it sound like some sort of fairyland, aren't I?

It came in a convenient little box.

The burger! Was it mind-blowingly awesome? Did it make me have revelations about the way food should REALLY be made? Not at all, but in its defense, it wasn't a terrible burger either.

My ice cream cup!

The incredibly long line outside of Shake Shack. There was such a big crowd that as I started walking into msg I thought that there was some kind of street fair going on.
