Vittles for the Week: Lambrusco, Top Chef, Hamburger Fun!


Drink:
Lambrusco is back in, less cloyingly sweet with a drier finish. Wonderful treat, if you aren't in the mood for something heavy. I've seen Lambrusco pop up on menus such at Per Bacco, Gusto, and Roberta's (Bushwick). Via Tasting Table

Diversion:
More Top Chef Nonsense, a preview of Season 6's chef-testants. Via Eater

Impulse Shopping:
Aren't hamburgers the cutest? Especially when they vacuum up table crumbs! Via Gizmodo

Local Shopping:
A list of the Greenmarkets and Farmer's Markets in New York State
Via New York State of Agriculture


Off-the Menu Fast Food:
Off- the menu hamburgers that aren't so cute--The McGang-Bang.
Via Eat Me Daily

Co-op Cooking:
I like the time-saving aspects and potential variety of meals over the course of a week, but sitting and eating together seems like a drag on agoraphobic days. Zip-locking should be an option. Via Bitten Blog; Also See Ethicurean
