My name is Niran Almog. Passionate about many things, none more than food.

Restaurant Review – Pineapple & Pearls (Washington D.C.)

Washington D.C. has always been a good food town. As a Baltimore native, I constantly hear about intriguing restaurants that would never work or exist in my hometown. As with all big cities, the residents are constantly on the prowl for something interesting, something beyond a touristy steakhouse or “fusion spot”, despite what NY Magazine […]Read Post ›

Restaurant Review – Le Mousso (Montreal, Canada)

Every so called ‘foodie’ is in constant pursuit of that next level meal. The search for that ingredient, dish, or experience that just transcends what you already perceive as good food. It could be a hole-in-the-wall with incredible Szechuan cuisine (like Mission Chinese), a food truck that serves up the best doner kebab, or a […]Read Post ›

Restaurant Review – Azumi (Baltimore, MD)

When Pabu closed in June 2014, Baltimore lost its premiere Japanese and sushi restaurant. Sure, there are several places in both the county and city to get very delicious sushi, but most lack that certain authenticity that Pabu brought. Not to be outdone by the Michael Mina Restaurant Group, the Atlas Restaurant Group opened Azumi […]Read Post ›

Restaurant Review – Momofuku CCDC (D.C.)

David Chang might be one of America’s most recognized chefs not on the Food Network. Despite reaching celebrity status, Chang isn’t a sellout – and you certainly won’t find him coaching “The Worst Cooks in America.” Instead of jumping at any TV appearance he can get, Chang hosted season 1 of the insightful show “Mind […]Read Post ›

2015: A Year in Review

2015 was a good year for me, especially from a culinary point of view. Per usual, I discovered new Baltimore restaurants, but also fell back in love with some old ones. As we saw from the very kind words of Zagat, the Baltimore food scene exploded in 2015, with the city coming in at number […]Read Post ›

Restaurant Review – Annisa (New York City)

New York’s dining scene is daunting to say the least, especially for an outsider just trying to keep up with the culinary mecca that is New York City. Anyone without a budget can easily settle on places like Eleven Madison Park or Le Bernardin for some of the best food in the world. But if […]Read Post ›

Restaurant Review – mk (Chicago, IL)

Chicago is nothing short of a foodie’s dream city. With so many offerings in both casual and fine dining, and everything in between, it’s easy to get immersed in Chicago’s food scene. After a lot of research prior to my recent trip, I came across mk The Restaurant (MK). Named after chef/owner Michael Kornick, MK […]Read Post ›

Restaurant Review – Mission Chinese (San Francisco, CA)

Ever since Alan Richman raved about Mission Chinese (MC) a few years back, I knew I needed to add this to my foodie destination bucket list. Since then, Mission Chinese has received tons of positive accolades and write ups in various publications, including the Bon Appetit Magazine. For better or worse, this unassuming restaurant is […]Read Post ›

Restaurant Review – REDD (Yountville, CA)

Touring Napa Valley and dining in Yountville, CA is something every foodie should do at least once in their life. The concentration of critically acclaimed and Michelin starred restaurants in such a small geographic location, Yountville, is almost unlike any other place in the world. Based on short notice table availability and also a recommendation […]Read Post ›

Restaurant Review – Aggio (Baltimore, MD)

I normally don’t care for Italian food and unfortunately, Baltimore does very little to instill confidence about this particular food genre. Sure, there is a bounty of options both in the county and city, but dishes covered red sauce or alfredo sauce are a lame excuse for Italian food. When Aggio opened up last summer […]Read Post ›
