At first, a project called Taste of the New York Subway System doesn't sound that appetizing. The concept, however, is a good one: a stop-by-stop guide to restaurants within 200 meters of NYC subway stations. Just pick a line, the "G" for instance, and you get all the restaurants near each stop on that line. Restaurants are linked to their respective Yahoo! Local pages. Those of you with a daily subway routine probably know what's in your neighborhood, but I could see this being quite useful if you had to travel out of your way for some reason and wanted to know what your eating options were.Posts with tag lines

William Conway, the blogger at Never Trust a Skinny Chef, was able to
realize one of his foodie dreams this week: he met Alton Brown. Actually, he got
to be an extra on an episode of Good Eats. Unlike a high-budget
Hollywood-style production, Good Eats is low key and relatively low budget, William described it as a "school play
affair." That didn't make it any less fun, though. Alton is a down-to-earth, smart and very likable guy. He was
coming up with stories and lines for the script at the spur of the moment - even giving William himself a line to say
in the show: "'There ain't no barracuda round here!"
To see William on TV and hear his line, look for the episode, which is about scallops, to air throughout the week on the Food Network!
