📚 the tragedy of heterosexuality. required reading! a fascinating look at the history of how/when/why heterosexuality came to be (spoiler alert its a social construct!)
🍜 ha's dac biet is a vietnamese food cart that im OBSESSED with. once, i drove upstate to eat at one of their pop ups (usually they're in brooklyn). they have about 5 dishes per pop up, avail until they sell out. follow their ig to see where/when you can get it on
💨 THE vaporizer of all vapes. first of all, thank you medly for bringing this vaporizer to my attention! this vape pen is PERFECT- i have never tasted an oil vaporizer this good. ITS TASTY. there's 2 heat settings, a cover for the actual cartridge (so the mouth piece is easy to clean --i mean maybe im gross but with vape always in my bag/pocket, the cartridge mouth piece gets grimy), it vibrates so you know it's working allowing you to have more of an understanding on the amount you're intaking. its not the cutest and maybe not the most discreet but the function, and its affordable ($25). it doesn't come with an oil cartridge, but my friends at medly can help with that! (dm for more info)
🍗 make your night and order in MALA FRIED CHICKEN from my friend Eric Huang. Eric hails from from Michelin kitchens, when covid hit he and his parents converted their chinese restaurant in flushing, queens into Pecking House, where he makes delivery chicken dinners. literally the crispiest fried chicken i have ever eaten. and the sides are super seasonal! he's been selling out so get on that waitlist!
🎧 i've been listening to Point of Origin - a podcast about the world of food. covering cultures, countries, culinary tradition, and food activism
📚 fledgling- the vampire book i didn't know i needed. how did it take me so long to discover this incredible book by Octavia Butler?!?! i dunno, but whew i'm glad to know now. read it
🐟 calling all pescatarians. i HIGHLY recommend buying fish from fish.nyc - they ship anywhere! like chefs in japan order from here. do a bulk order and fill up your freezer. you can reuse the styrofoam :( as a cooler or break it up and place it on the bottom of planters.
