  • Back Forty West

    If you’ve ever walked around the east village, you probably know about Back Forty. They throw an awesome crab boil party every summer and boast an excellent burger. I’ve eaten at Back Forty a number of times and have walked away from the meals feeling quite satiated. But, sorry to say, that’s not the case Read more

  • Recipe Attempted: In-N-Out Burger, Double Double, Animal Style

  • Lucky’s Famous Burgers

    If you walk west down 52nd Street, you can’t miss Lucky’s Famous Burgers. It’s interior screams at you in yellow and orange tones and snares you in from the sidewalk. The tiny space boasts four tables and two counter spaces for your dining pleasure. So, what does any sentient being order at a place called Read more

  • The One and Only ShackField

    SHAKE SHACK AT CITI FIELD I know the Mets season may soon come to an end. Or it should. Put the people out of New York out of their misery, please. If you happen to intentionally attend a Mets game or take a ride on the 7 toward Flushing on a game day, I highly Read more

  • Fearless New Blog, y’all

    Welcome to Taylor’s Ham! Delight in musings on music and food from the five boroughs and beyond (meaning, like, New Jersey)! I’m starting this blog because I need a new writing project and am inspired by Taylor Swift and all-things-New-Jersey, but mostly Taylor Ham–the delicious breakfast meat also known as Pork Roll in public school Read more
