About
Eating Alone is a website for those of us who have found themselves fed up with having peanut butter on a spoon or a can of soup for dinner and/or who hate to be stared at by couples in restaurants with looks which mix equal parts pity and scorn.Following
Taiwan Pizza Hut’s spread is not identical to the U.S.’s. They certainly have a few of the American standards - your pepperonis, your sausages, what have you. However, many of the available configurations may make Chicago-style and New York-style purists’ heads explode.
I opted for the Osaka Taco Pizza, a Japanese-style pizza with the following toppings:
- octopus
- mashed potatoes
- seaweed powder
- okonomiyaki sauce
- mayonnaise
- onions

Since Tumblr does not allow people to switch “primary blogs”— for those of you who have recently started following me. All updates are being done on the above-mentioned “imgreer” blog.
Helen Keller once said, “Life is either a great adventure or nothing.”
I don’t really understand what she meant by that, but I think I tend to disagree with her. Life is often a real pain in the @#$ and filled with boredom and minutia.
But, be that as it may, I am heading to Taiwan on May 26th for three months.
I smell an adventure…
Or maybe that’s just the Soft Scrub I used to clean the kitchen…
Maybe you eat alone by choice; maybe you eat alone out of habit; or maybe you eat alone because you’re an insufferable a**hole and no one can even spend an hour of their night with you…
Or perhaps you’re not “alone” in the technical sense of the word — maybe you find yourself eating alone because your signifcant other is on a business trip; is on assignment somehwere; or maybe you’re in one of those dreaded “long distance relationships” — whatever your reason is for eating alone, I’m here to tell you…
YOU’RE NOT ALONE!
Stay tuned for my first restaurant review later tonight… at that point I will unveil my “Eating Alone-ability” rating scale.
For those of you living in Greenpoint, Brooklyn and/or Williamsburg, Brooklyn, or for those of you who aren’t scared of the G train (and honestly it’s ok to be scared of the G train) please visit one of the coolest places I’ve been to recently, Rooftop Farms.
Not only is it a 6000 square foot organic farm located on top of an industrial building on Eagle Street with a beautiful view of the East River and Manhattan, but it’s the perfect place to shop for everything from chives to tarragon, lettuce to tomatoes. And if you only need a 1/4 pound of mixed greens for a salad for one… no problem. Ben Flanner, farmer extraordinnaire, will hook you up.
And if you want to learn how to compost your own “single person” shit… well, I think you can do that too.
