The Minamoto Kitchoan shop near Rockefeller Center closed a few weeks ago and they have relocated to 509 Madison Ave.
Some of the seasonal wagashi available now are blueberry gelée and peach cakes.

Chef Yuji has captured the flavors of Andalusian gazpacho and made them his own in this new mazemen, which will be available for only a limited time. I loved the chopped shiso on top!

Some of my absolute favorite artisan cheeses are made by Cowgirl Creamery in Pt. Reyes, California. You can find these excellent cheeses in New York City at almost every Whole Foods location.
A few weeks ago I entered a contest on the creamery’s Facebook page to win some of their cheeses! I had to submit a video of myself singing a song about cheese to the tune of Sweet Dreams by the Eurythmics.
It goes like this: “Sweet dreams are made of cheese, who am I to diss a Brie? I cheddar the world and the feta cheese, everybody’s looking for Stilton.”
Here is my video:
I guess people on Facebook liked the video because I just found out that I won the contest! I am so excited to try the cheeses that they’re going to send! I will post pictures of the package when it arrives!
Thanks, Cowgirl Creamery!
