Fake Dragon
I been operating last minute lately, and lately it’s been good. I got to grab a bite with some friends from school – I lied and said I’ll put them up – they know who they are though. We ate, walked the promenade, around DUMBO, and back to EHS housing. Today was a good day. Laidback.
Best Desserts: Bizy Dream’n x The Lamp NYC
Just recently I’d been working on a flyer design for The Lamp, a non-profit organization creating a movement to reform and improve media, & Always Order Dessert for Best Desserts at Double Windsor Bar. On June 9th New York City’s hottest food bloggers go at it in a dessert contest before a panel of celebrity judges…and you!
I’d been putting it off for a couple of days, you know how I do. Nevertheless, I everything was as promised – they approved. Chilly. I was going for a retro diner look with the typography. I wanted it to be homey, tasteful. If you look at the design, I kinda stole from Jim Jarmusch’s, a memo to a friend, layout +post. I really enjoyed that friendly feeling I got from it and I just wanted to use it. I’m a little hype about this because exposure is exposure, good or bad, people will know of you. In this case, it’s definitely good exposure.
Support The Lamp, hope to see y’all there.
Check out the flyer after the jump.

Panera!
Nic’ + I paired up for a late lunch at the other day. She thought it was long overdue since we hardly seen each other this semester. I suggested Panera since I wanted to try the ‘Napa Almond Chicken Salad Sandwich,’ which was bang’n, and for a drink, I ordered a ‘Green Tea’ to complete my meal. I think Nic’ ordered the ‘Asiago Roast Beef’.
Good Eats: Take One
(Pardon the cell phone pic) Initially I created “Good Eats,” the category, for times when I actually find good food. Obvious! I’m stuck in my ways when it comes to food, I eat what I know – I know what I eat. However, I knew it wouldn’t thrive for that long. Well, how could it? I don’t eat out often, if hardly, and the best food I eat, usually, is mom’s cooking. Any West Indians would already know whats on the dinner menu, those cultural delicacies. I’m trying to arouse my taste buds and get out more, eat different foods, experience different cultures, etc. This weekend I started off on a good foot. Friday, I made a second trip to the Publick Cup, in downtown New Haven, and enjoyed a toasted California Tuna: lemon and caper tuna salad (no mayo) with ripe avocado and fresh mozzarella on multigrain bread. With a Savannah… I’ll formally introduce the Savannah in a later post.

Cafe Habana
Also, stop by Cafe Habana if you happen to be around the SoHo/Lower East Side section of Manhattan for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner or take out. I’ll be planning a date over there sooner than later, I can be quiet the food/culinary enthusiast if you didn’t know [LOL]. Last Thursday, I tried fried calamari in Shelton, Connecticut. For those who know me well, I ONLY eat chicken and fish, with the exception of shrimp and crab.

Good Eats!
Chicken Tortilla Bread Bowl Soup
Lunch at Panera Bread, good eats! The Chicken Tortilla bread bowl soup was delicious – very filling on the consumers end, worker-friendly/work efficient on the workers end, and eco-friendly, if you want to take it that far. After you finish your soup, you can eat the bread bowl as well. Less work for the workers, crafty.

Keep It Surreal we can talk about what we want, when we want, how we want. Bloggers keeping it real. Our purpose is to touch on topics from art, design and musiq to life and habitat. We try to give a shining light on all creatives, especially folks with aspirations of growing viral, as well as, already established folk in pop-culture. We’ll use this blog to explore a thing or two. Hopefully you’ll contribute.
