Pesto, chermoula, chimichurri, green goddess dressing, Italian salsa verde, grune soße… herb sauces are all so good

Kind of randomly, we went to Frankfurt last year (first time in Germany) and learned about green sauce. Can confirm it’s very good! 💚

This sounds wonderful! The most impactful single class of my life was a literature seminar on cell division with Mike Lampson. It’s why I joined his lab. It was the most sustained, focused attention on primary literature I’d had in a class, and it was a pleasure

Thanks for the recs! No immediate plans for a trip in that area but I’m sure we’ll make it eventually

You’ll fry for this!

Exactly! My guess is many of those people are tourists with limited time in the city, and I feel really sad they’re losing an hour to that line. (And based on the sad faces in line, they’re questioning their choices) At the same time, it’s their only chance to try this famous pizza?!

L’Industrie is one of my local slice shops, and it is really really good (better than Joe’s down the street, and I love Joe’s) but I always feel so sorry for the people standing in line for 30 minutes or longer when it’s busy.

Just because you’re mentioning some southern/creole things I’m going to say a little e-prayer for Fat Ham, a really good New Southern spot in Philly that closed way too soon. Anyone else remember them?

I’m going the other way: 9:45 am lunch

Yes!!! I first saw it as staff rec at @mcnallyjackson.bsky.social. Kid thought the cover was too scary 🤷but as long as we kept it covered he very much enjoyed it. like Treasure Island, hidden gem is scene celebrating the power of a chunk of cheese.
