Win49: excellent steamed dumplings, rolled cabbage, other stuff ok, tasted only 6 dishes.....love the side with each item of cabbage, radish, etc (health with the fry!!)....
In 2004 I will get even more anal and only give scores to meals over 90 out of 100 points, otherwise just babble on....
I hope to get to my top 3 from 2003 this January, plus Casa Mono (fav from December), than its off to new spots plus a few I want to re-try.
The list is long but its Sugiyama, Trotter/Kunz/Keller, Sumile, Megu, Ariyoshi, Biltmore Room, Spice Market, Asiate (take #2), Ping's, Kurima Zushi, Geisha,
Boi, Soba Nippon, etc
Times today talks about the Japanese revolution, yahoo!!
Wylie showed me Japanese "food porno mags" back in 2001 that woke me up,
I sadly missed great meals in Japan cause me broke and booze was more important in the 80's.
Kai did and I assume will continue rocking my world and charts, I am so excited about this year of eating, so much is happening in NY.
Not exciting is the Aquavit chef new spot, to me Aquavit is overrated and look at the Times, "...foie gras nori and short ribs and applesauce, and sushi..." this is cutting edge?? NOT!! And another no thanks looks like Matsuri, the La Caravelle chef leaves cause as the Times sez "...do I really have to work so hard?"
Well Mr Lazy, I am too tired to make it to your new spot!!
But so much to try!!

Our pal Matt McCaslin drifts into
Feigen Contemporary in Chelsea. Opening Thursday, January 8th.
Alias gets a
much needed rave in New York Magazine.
There is a fantastic opportunity to see a 5-day festival devoted to
films on John Cage at The Anthology Film Archive in New York City:
VARIATIONS: A JOHN CAGE FILM VIDEO & MUSIC FESTIVAL
Anthology Film Archives, 32 Second Avenue New York, NY 10003
(212) 505-5181 Fax (212) 477-2714
It will take place between January 21-25, 2004 and will be the largest
collection of Cage films shown in one place at one time to my knowledge.
Many of these films are quite obscure and have never been seen in New
York. For a full schedule of the events, please see:
http://www.mode.com/news.html#varjan
or
http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/index2.html (scroll way down to
the bottom)
Also, at the 7:30 showing of FRM ZERO on January 22, there will be a
concert of Cage's CARTRIDGE MUSIC, FOUR6, and other pieces. Performers
will include Jim O'Rourke, Okkyung Lee, Alan Licht, and Tim Barnes.
Organized by Okkyung Lee in conjunction with Mode Records
The festival also coordinates with the first commercial release of the
Frank Scheffer/Andrew Culver film on Cage, FROM ZERO: 4 Films on John
Cage (mode 130, DVD only, for release on January 9th), on Mode records.
Dutch director Frank Scheffer is known for his creative films on a
number of 20th century composers, from Stravinsky and Schoenberg, to
Carter and Boulez, to Eno and Zappa. Mode will be releasing a number of
Scheffer's composer films on DVD over the next few years. Andrew Culver
worked as Cage's assistant (and designed the computerized I-Ching
program for Cage) from the early 1980s until Cage's death in 1992.
Scheffer and Culver will be present at the premiere showing of FROM
ZERO.
For more information on the release and the directors, please see:

Isnt the
demonization of books an early step toward 1984 ?
"The FBI noted that use of almanacs or maps may be innocent, "the product of legitimate recreational or commercial activities." But it warned that when combined with suspicious behavior - such as apparent surveillance - a person with an almanac "may point to possible terrorist planning."
Is this an ANTI-information policy. (For our own good of course.)

prereviews.
