Hudson Opera House by Liesl Pfeffer

Hudson Opera House, NY
November 2014

The Hudson Opera House is New York state's oldest surviving theatre. Built in 1855, and currently in a pretty tired (but beautiful) state of decline, funds are being raised for its restoration. 

More tacos, this time in Bushwick by Liesl Pfeffer

Bushwick NY
October 2014

Our second Taquistadores taco tour took us across to Bushwick. Since it's my old neighborhood I mapped our journey based on a mixture of old haunts, recommendations and positive Yelp reviews. We tried tacos at five different spots:

Tortilleria Mexicana Los Hermanos
Taqueria Sofia 
Taqueria El Paisa (both locations)
Taquerias Izucar Inc

The El Paisa on Myrtle Ave was hands down the best, with their amazing condiments and little extras like fried onions (see the top photo in this post).
