adventures of mascarah.

I've just begun a new decade. Sigh.

I have always wanted to be "a writer" but I'm lost somewhere in the prologue...whittling away at a story I may never tell.

Likes: pop culture. my chihuahua. architecture. modern art. elizabeth street. contemporary designer apparel. food. travel. foreign films. speakeasys. live music. politics. hot sauce. surprises. running in the rain. strangers. wednesdays. fearlessness...and 100s of other random things... maybe even you.

A southerner by birth, northerner by the grace of God, I'm simply a nyc gal who is lost somewhere on my constant exploration of the city and the life,love, and pursuit found within it.

This morning, Chef Joey Campanaro made an appearance on CBS News “The Early Show,” during which he shared his recipe for the infamous Little Owl Bacon Cheeseburger on The Dish. He prepared the burgers with a Little Owl classic, the bibb & beets, & a new arrival to The Little Owl menu, our new cocktail, “El Levante.”


Enjoy the bacon cheeseburger at home, visit CBS News “Early Show” for Joey’s recipe.

Just ate this entire block of the most amazing cheese from Switzerland from Benjamin. Thank you. SO DELICIOUS.

My favorite culinary city got bestowed its annual foodie oscars aka Michelin stars today.

I don’t agree with all of their snubs and selections (I’d have totally given a star to Next, MK, Le Titi de Paris, Sprout, Avec and Girl & the Goat) but food is such a personal experience and I’m far from an expert.

Overall if you live in or visit Chicago I highly recommend you eat through the stars and bib gourmands in this book. I’ve been to all (yes all) and they are delicious.
