Companies like The Farmer’s Dog, Ollie and others are marketing their fresh pet food as less processed and more closely resembling human diets. Veterinarians and animal nutritionists say many of these new brands are targeting wealthier consumers who treat their animals as if they were children — so-called fur babies — and want to match…
All these old friends, all this nostalgia — I think it’s an age thing. Not mine, but the age of Team Ottolenghi, the company whose 20th birthday we are celebrating this month (around a year late, but with no less excitement). We opened our first deli on a small street in London’s Notting Hill just…
I have a bit of a reputation: If you’re planning on going to Philadelphia, talk to Nikita. I’m by no means an expert, but I visit our sister city (brother city?) three or four times a year — and I think you should, too! The mental block that seems to keep many New Yorkers from…

He has operations in New Jersey, Florida, Georgia and three countries outside the United States. At home in New York, though, Mr. Samuelsson’s footprint was limited to Red Rooster in Harlem and…

Papaya King, the Upper East Side fixture known for its hot dogs and tropical fruit juices, is moving to a new location, across the street from its longstanding spot on the corner of 86th Street and Third Avenue. The manager, Mohammed Alam, said that there is no firm opening date, but they hope to open…
ANAHEIM, Calif. — The strawberry Dole Whip sundae at Disneyland, in its first minute or so of life, looks perfect. Billowed with fresh fruit and a syrupy drizzle, veiled with tender cake crumbs, it has the dazzling color and softly drooping tip of a cartoon dessert. By the time you pick up a spoon and…
“These are good times for tofu lovers,” Andrea Nguyen writes in The New York Times this week, for her smart tofu primer that considers three categories: basic, chewy and intensely flavored. She reports that America’s tofu consumption has roughly doubled in recent years, fueled in part by a growing interest in plant-based cooking. Whether smoked,…
Mimi Sheraton’s greatest innovation as a restaurant critic is still the only thing people want to talk about. The question comes up in interviews, casual conversations and any other time I get within close range of anybody who knows what I do for a living: “Do you wear disguises?” I don’t, I tell them, and…
