Flavor Tripping
miracle fruit parties and sundry grub fests
mad flavor science
Flavor Tripping is an ongoing series of Bacchanalian food tasting smackdowns that occur about once a month, beginning in February ‘08 in NYC and SF. Our events are smallish affairs held in an undisclosed location - not (only) because we’re wanted international criminals, but because we dig switching things up and matching the spaces to the events we’re hosting. The first series of tastings center on miracle fruit (Sideroxylon dulcificum if you want to get all scientific about it), a cranberry-sized West African berry that that numbs your sour and bitter tastebuds for a couple of hours after eating it. That means that everything that used to taste sour now tastes sweet. Fo’ reals. It’s like a candy Willy Wonka would have invented - after eating one stout beers taste like chocolate milkshakes, grapefruits taste like pixie sticks, cheeses taste like frosting, it will make even the crappiest tequila taste like lemonade (and strangely enough, it will make all wine taste like Manischewitz).
So if you’d like to sign-up for the miracle fruit parties — there’ll be a banquet of food, beer, liquor, and beats provided by our resident DJ, plus damn good company — drop us a line at supreme@flavortripping.com. We’ll send out an email informing you of the next party.
…and or those of you who can’t make the parties, or just wanna experience the deliciousness on yer own, we’re also selling ye olde miracle fruit. Hit us up for more details and pricing.

Flavor Tripping is a ruthlessly-badass bastion of good taste. We throw parties w/ food. These parties are in NYC and SF. The parties are monkey loads of fun. These parties often include rare and exotic foods you ain’t gonna find in no dumpy bodega. The parties are run by a loose-knit-but-also-badass group of friends with much experience organizing large events in the states and abroad.
To receive e-mail updates on our next Miracle Fruit party, drop us a line at supreme@flavortripping.com. It’s worth it. Promise.
((what do you drink, what does it do to wine??))

this looks nexflixable - paris, je t'aime.
I would like to believe this is self parody, only I don't think it is. Gawker.com says--"if Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah's couch was an 8 on the scale of scary, this is a 10." (I think the couch thing was a 6, I give this a 12.)
This is old news, but new to me, and I'm sorry but If you think I can resist posting this, you've got another think coming.

Recommended:East 15. Homemade tofu was excellent (better than Megu I thought) and the cod special with miso and mushrooms was amazing. Nice quiet room. Started by the owners of Tocqueville, which is right next door. Next time though I want to sit at the sushi bar.
Got to hand it to this bank robber.
the other night coward fineman could not stop gushing about tim russerts skill and fearsomeness as an interviewer and that hillary was brave to submit to an hour in his presence. judge for yourself right now but dont look directly into his eyes or you may not live to comment again.
