Afternoon Snacks
Sweet news from Magpie, but can it offset the super salty vibe ringing through the food world right now?
Afternoon Snacks
On today's Afternoon Snacks: some sweet and delicious news before things turn suddenly, viciously sour.
As you may recall, Magpie (1622 South St.) has been running mini-pie specials every weekend, with a different trio of flavors each time at $10 for all three. (You can buy one for $4, but, come on.) This weekend's lineup looks especially good: they're all inspired by breakfast foods. Available on Saturday and Sunday only, you can sample vanilla bean yogurt cream pie with house-made granola and honey, spiced oatmeal pie with caramelized apples, and orange-scented cinnamon roll with a sweet glaze.
Girl Scout cookie season is winding down around here (March 3rd is the last day), but there's still time to get all curmudgeonly over them. LA Weekly's Squid Ink blog has plenty of reasons right here!
Speaking of curmudgeons, Andrew Knowlton's got some things to get off his chest.
And lest Guy Fieri catch all the flak nowadays over corporate swill tied to the Food Network brand, Eater tells us Ina Garten's got a line of frozen dinners coming out. Because when we think "Barefoot Contessa," the next words that come to mind are always "sack of jambalaya from the freezer case at Walmart."
