Serious Eats goes on a Soho eating binge with Andrew Carmellini, where they start at Dominique Ansel and end at Milady’s, with a lot of food and scoop in between. Over at Melvin’s Juice Bar, Carmellini says he was was iffy about the au courant juice obsession, “until John Cusack was staying at The Greenwich Hotel where he brought his juicer and started juicing for me. He made this pear-kale juice and it was then, then I started to understand.” Yup, Carm can say anything and we’ll listen. [Serious Eats]
