When a friend sent me these to taste, she warned me that they are addicting. True fact. The newest product from this line of well-portioned, healthy food company tastes an updated cinnamon toast crunch - less saccharine, puffier, and crunchier....

After more than a few sessions at speakeasy-inspired bars like PDT and Drink, I've come to know my Old Fashioned from my Sidecar. But the other night, I discovered a new classic that I might need to add to my regular drink repertoire.
In the country’s most restaurant-obsessed city, Cathy Erway did the unthinkable: she opted out.
We've heard of two-for-one drafts, but half-priced Old Fashioneds? That's what Bryant's Cocktail Lounge serves during happy hour, and that sounds to me like a very happy hour, indeed.
From hidden izakayas to top-dollar sushi counters, Honolulu is mad about Japanese food.
New Haven has three major pizza players—Pepe's, Sally's, and Modern—vying for people’s hearts, but who says you have to be monogamous?
During my unofficial tour of Vancouver's bars, I found that the city's bartenders are a modest bunch. Even the best were quick to say that the cocktail scene in New York and LA would trounce them any day. I don't think they're giving themselves enough credit.
Luckily, for those stricken with cabin fever in the DC area (and those with four-wheel drive), Trummer's On Main in nearby Clifton, VA remained open—and cocktail wunderkind Stefan Trummer served spicy hot (rum-spiked) cocoa, among other wintery creations.
“[We seek] Americana in its most current and real form—at the dinner table,” says Melissa Schilling, one half of the Sip Snap Savor team (the other is photographer Jamie Lloyd), by driving all over the country and cooking with strangers.
I had heard Vancouver was a serious food town and I wasn't disappointed on my recent trip—it was one great meal after another, one talented bartender after another, and everyone we met was nicer than the last. Here are my personal gold medal winners.
First, there were the Airstream trailers, then came the Bustaurants, and now: a coffee shop in a shipping container. Jesse Griffiths of Austin's Dai Due Supper Club just clued us into La Boîte ("the box"), a 160 square foot café that opened in November.
Italians have their spaghetti and meatballs, Americans eat them swimming in broth among hunks of chicken and celery, the Thai people have what seems like a gazillion stir-fried variations; many cultures have a version of this comforting pile of carbs. In Japan, my favorite way to eat ramen was cold with a warm dipping sauce companion.
Los Angeles food alert! Quinn and Karen Hatfield, the fabulously talented husband-and-wife cooking duo, have finally opened their new restaurant.
It was in early October, when I sat down with the guys from Seattle's Matt's in the Market, that I first heard the word "snit." "Do you mean a tattletale?" I asked them. No, owner Dan Bugge told me, it's a shot of beer served alongside a Bloody Mary.
Restaurants across the country are resurrecting house accounts as a way of rewarding loyal customers.
Want whiskey-spiked fondue with your mountain view in Park City? No problem—and no need to take off your boots, says Tasting Table. Here's a round-up of great ski-in hot spots.
Alexa Andrzejewski and Ted Grubb have parlayed their experiences in tech start-ups into Foodspotting, which catalogues the most drool-worthy dishes from around the country.
Leave it to the Brits. Food trucks be damned, they’ve upped the ante with their RootMaster, a vegan Bustaurant.
Kickstarter has an ingenious take on micro-finance: people post projects that they’re trying to get off the ground, from cookbooks to documentaries, and set a financial target. It’s the voyeur’s way of participating in start-ups, and the poor man’s way to be a patron of the arts.
We read San Francisco Chronicle critic Michael Bauer's Sunday review of Frances restaurant last night, and are happy to report that he thinks "not a dish disappoints."
These days, Peoria, Illinois is emblematic of the nation's economic state, with major layoffs at the Caterpillar plant and other businesses. But there is a major bright spot in the town: chef Josh Adams’s June restaurant.
During my short time in Laos two years ago, I grew to love pho in the morning. Granted, in southern Laos, there wasn't much of a choice, but even in touristy Luang Prabang, where eggs and toast were easy to find, I chose to eat noodles and broth for breakfast.
