I’m headed back home today from my first-ever trip to NYC. Wanted to share my dining experiences, ranked from best to worst just in case anyone ever needs dining recommendations! (Long post, so be forewarned.)
#1: Nami Nori Safety: 10/10. Felt absolutely confident eating here. Everything is GF. Some non GF drinks but all food is GF.
Food: 20/10. Literally the best food I’ve ever had in my life. I ate so much sushi.
#2: Friedman’s Safety: 10/10. No separate GF menu, but server knew what celiac was and they modify for food allergies/celiac and I felt totally safe eating here. They have Glutenberg beer!
Food: 10/10. Had a cobb salad. Wanted to eat 5 more.
#3: Modern Bread & Bagel Safety: 10/10. Everything is GF.
Food: Delicious. Had latke tots and a Jerusalem egg salad bagel sandwich. Incredible.
#4: The Little Beet Safety: 10/10. Everything is GF. Was a tiny bit skeptical at first because it was a quick-serve type place (think build your own style like a Qdoba) but they assured me everything is GF.
Food: 9/10. Really good, not as high quality as Friedman’s or Nami Nori but it was super tasty. Had rice, cold spicy noodles, chicken, charred broccoli. Would eat again.
#5: Macao Trading Company Safety: 7/10. This one was a bit of gamble. I met up with colleagues and wasn’t going to eat, but by the time we got there I was hungry. I informed the server that I had celiac and she handed me an allergen menu. Everything was marked to what was GF and what could be made GF. Problem was, one thing that was marked GF ended up NOT being. The pork I wanted was marinated in soy, not tamari. It was labeled as GF, though. But thankfully the server knew enough about the menu to tell me not to order it. Server took everything very seriously and even told the manager. Asked the bartender if the drink I wanted was safe.
Food: 10/10. I ordered skirt steak with roasted potatoes, and a Drunken Dragon’s Milk cocktail. Absolutely delicious meal, awesome place, but I did feel like it was a gamble. Ended up being fine and I didn’t get sick. But as far as food goes it was probably the 2nd best meal I ate on my trip.
#6: Tap NYC Safety: 10/10. Dedicated GF, even checked and made sure their oat milk was made with certified GF oats.
Food: 8/10. Had an avo & egg sandwich and a smoothie. Enjoyed it.
#7: By the Way Bakery Safety: 10/10. Dedicated GF.
Food: 10/10. This one is low on the list because I only had a coffee and a pumpkin muffin, but the pumpkin muf
... keep reading on reddit ➡I was watching a documentary about Jewish delis and realized something.
I grew up on Eastern European deli food to some extent bc we had at least 2 delis in our neighborhood.
The documentary pointed out that Eastern European Jews who arrived in America in the early 1900s copied the deli concept from the German Jews already here.
German Jews tended to be wealthier and their deli food was meats, fish, fermented foods like sauerkraut and red cabbage (all lowcarb foods).
Eastern European Jews were very poor, and like today, poor ppl tend to rely on starchy carbs sugar bc they're cheap. They added to the deli foods highcarb things like noodle, potato, etc kugels, bagels, desserts, matzoball soup, potato latkes, etc.
Annnd....many Jews of those backgrounds ended up with health related issues which we now know are caused by starchy carbs/sugar and not meats/fats.
Same can be said of Italians. Southern Italian diets are carbheavy...they're traditionally poor and often develop t2. Northern Italians are wealthier, their diets were always heavier on meats/cheeses/vegs, and less t2.
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!

They’re on standbi
Pilot on me!!
Nothing, he was gladiator.
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
When I got home, they were still there.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
I won't be doing that today!

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.
Daughter: I'm hungry
Me: nerves building, smile widening
Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.
She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.
Thank you all for listening.

So that I could frequently say, "I am going to walk 5 miles now."

Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...
Notices there's only 2;
Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."
I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.
I was just sitting there doing nothing.
