Like Ships in the Night...

An interesting blip in the cosmos has occurred. I'm not sure if everyone remembers our ex-resident sherpa and journalist extraordinaire Sasha Davies. We miss her horribly. Lucky for us she is on her way across this vast country to visit.

This past winter our dear Sasha, along with Mark, Andrew, Caroline, Travis and I stood in the sleet at the Fulton Fish Market in support of the New Amsterdam Market. What proved to be a lovely and freezing afternoon is soon to be reincarnated.

This summer issue of the Journal has an article about shell fish tags by Sasha and another on the history of the seaport by Robert LaValva who is the Director of the Market. Sunday, the 29th of June, will be a summer market featuring wild foods, fruits of the farm, milk and honey, pastured meats, local source producers, purveyors, distributors, advocates, chefs, and authors. A true meeting point for taste and intellect!

Strangely enough at that very same bat time in Brooklyn at the East River bar Sasha and Tom, our meat man, will be hosting the second annual UnFancy Food Show. The UnFancy Food Show is the imaginative, thoughtful, joyful, Sid and Nancy answer to the Fancy Food Show. This year will be bigger, better, and inevitably drunker faster! We are looking forward to all shapes and sizes, from Zippy Bee to Hot Bread Kitchen!

How will Marlow and Diner be in two places at one time? Stay tuned.

Same bat-channel.
