Empire Mayonnaise Co - Brooklyn, NY

Our first shipment of Empire Mayonnaise has arrived at the Green Olive office, so we promptly picked up some burgers and fries to test 'em out. The fave was the curry mayo, but black garlic and smoked paprika are no slouches either. Read more about the Brooklyn store opening here.

Crawfish Round Two - City House, Nashville, TN

We get excited once crawfish start popping up on menus - last week City House's special starter was a pound of 'em - it didn't take much to sell us on that one. We followed it up with our standard order - the belly ham pizza with chili oil.

Big thanks to the folks at One Eared Stag for serving us our first plate of crawfish this year. The April Fool's Day boil was one of the best Sundays we've had in a while.

Nu-Way Weiners - Macon, GA

We're always excited when work brings us to Macon, Georgia, as it means a mandatory stop at the legendary Nu-Way Weiners. Our order never changes - always the chili cheese slaw dog. And check out that classic sign:

The Beagle - New York, NY

Our current favorite for cocktails in New York - The Beagle. Low-key atmosphere, great staff, and right around the corner from Lakeside Lounge. What more could you want?

Sushi Yasuda - New York, NY

Sushi Yasuda was probably our best meal of last year...and it looks like we already have a contender for this year's best. Sit in front of this guy at the sushi bar, and just let him cook for you.

The signage at Tad's Steaks never disappoints:
