UGH! Who eats that for breakfast?  It was just so much on a plate I couldn’t help but gawk….then i had to post it and share.

That is the mother of all gluttons!!!

Shopsin is famed for their brunches and luckily there are other choices (and lighter fare) on their menu.

Recession? Not at Google

With the massive layoffs due to the very troubled economy, many companies are opting NOT to have holiday parties…that is unless you are Google.

They are having THREE (yup three) holiday parties this year.  And apparently at one of the parties, they served up filet mignon.

Proof here.





Take a good look at this picture….

Looks good right? Guess what kind of sandwich it is…bet you wouldn’t be able to guess at first glance.

It’s  a SOY “fish” sandwich and barbecue “steak” sandwich.  I couldn’t believe it either!!! This sandwich actually LOOKS tasty!

Even I, the Hungry Korean, a die hard meat eater, would try this sandwich!

Get it at Red Bamboo, 271 Adelphi St, Brooklyn, NY





So this is kind of interesting

Cannibal pigs.

Yup…a pig cooking another pig just puts me in the mood for some BBQ! (not)

McDonald’s Fish Filet

I dunno what it is about these things but the combination of the soft bun, crispy fish and salty cheese just does it for me.
