my newest food critiques
whats up yardbarkers? i hope this finds everyone in good health and spirits. Sorry for the super long delay on a new post for the blog but i REALLY have been enjoying some much needed rest and relaxation as the off season conditioning program approaches. As everyone knows i love food and it loves me back so i gotta give my newest critiques on the food scene.
1. katz's deli- One word to describe this place "crazy". i gotta say the best corned beef and pastrami sandwiches that i have ever had in my life, i really dont think that ive ever had meat that moist and tender on a sandwich. If there is a better deli sandwich in NYC someone please let me know because katz's is number one on my list. The only draw back is the unorganized counter at which orders are placed especially on a saturday, if you havent been just expect to have a large group of people trying to place orders to 5 or 6 guys making sandwiches which ends up being total chaos but im not going to lie it was worth it.
2. Craft(atlanta)- Craft is one of the hottest new restaurants to come to Atlanta Chef/owner Tom Colicchio has other restaurants in NY and vegas and he delivers a solid meal. i started with the marinated/cured hamachi with pineapple. The dish was light and flavorful and the curing process made the fish somewhat sweet, definitely a good starter that didnt get me too full for the main course. I had the Waygu skirt steak for my main course and it turned out to be good but not great. i mainly chose the dish because it was waygu but i think that the fact that it was skirt steak and skirt steak is a tougher cut of meat made the texture for me a little disappointing but hey it was waygu so i figured i had to order it. The best part of the meal was without question dessert. i ordered a sorbet trio(grapefruit, honey tangerine, and pear) and i swear to you guys i thought i was eating the real fruit and im not even a sorbet fan but they definitely get 2 thumbs up for the dessert.

you are right about ordering at katz's it was kind of intimidating the first time you go ... i was not sure how to order and all that, but the sandwich was definitely worth it.
