Day 465 : The Philadelphia Cheese Experiment

If you're involved in the NYC foodie world, then you've probably heard of Theo Peck and Nick Suarez, the masterminds behind The Food Experiments -- a series of amateur cooking competitions that primarily have taken place in Brooklyn. Tried the tacos at the Brooklyn Taco experiment or the bread puddings at the Brooklyn Booze Experiment?  But for those of you who do not live in Brooklyn, this year they have launched what they are calling their national tour, with cooking competition all across the country -- Austin, Boston, New Orleans, Washington DC, and finally Philadelphia where they've decided to put on a cheese experiment. I wonder if they chose cheese for Philadelphia because of the well known cream cheese, hmmm....

So if you're looking to revive your competitive spirit or just looking for a road trip down to Philly and an excuse to do so or looking to try all sorts of inventive, unique, and wacky cheese based recipes, then I recommend planning to head down to Philly for the Cheese Experiment!

Check out their website for more details, to attend and enjoy the delicacies or enter into the competition! http://www.thefoodexperiments.com/

In other news, I must mention a new restaurant I went to last night, granted there was no cheese on the menu, but it surely was a distinct culinary point of view -- fusion Thai, Malaysian, Indian, and Singapore cuisines, tucked away on a little side street off of Union Square. Laut offers clean, fresh, delish food with a lively atmosphere. So the next time you're looking for a reliable, affordable joint in Union Square area, try it -- 15 East 17th Street, NYC.
