OK, Here we go..... I think it only fair to start with this photo as this trip to Tokyo, and the inspiration of these two guys with me in the photo, really kicked off my interest in exploring food, photographing said eats, and sharing/explaining my impressions of my experiences. So, to you David Chang and Anthony Bourdain, Cheers, and thanks. As I begin I think it only fair to explain a bit of what my purpose with this blog is. As you know, I do not participate in Facebook, and I wont go into why here, but I NEEDED a vehicle to communicate and connect with those in my life, both near and far. As the name implies, this will primarily be a blog about pizza. However, as this is mine, I will feel free to do and say as I damn well please, as it pleases me. So I hope to not offend or tiptoe too far over the line of appropriateness, but if I do, that's just too fucken bad. Enjoy. Pizza, food, life experiences, thoughts, feelings, rants, and more food. This is what you will find here. Please feel free to share and pass along to anyone you think might have an interest, as I hope you will as well. Sincerely yours, DVA

M Noodle Shop - Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NYC

Now that I'm a Williamsburg local I'd like to introduce you to my favorite local restaurant.



Fresh, delicious, handmade food.

Need anything else?  

You don't.

I found this place by simply walking by after coming off the L heading back to the hotel.  It's very cose to the Lorimer/Metropolitan stop.  And to be honest, before I went I checked Yelp to try to get an idea of what to order, what's awesome.  And to my surprise the Yelp reviews were terrible.  Pretty much a slam, stating that if you were drunk and it was late and you were hungry then you might want to check it out, otherwise don't bother.

Yelp is dumb.  I hate Yelp.  

This place is great!  But you need to know that you are headed into a noodle shop.  Chinese fast food, not fine dining.  They also do a huge take-out and delivery service, so if the place doesn't look packed then it's still not kosher to assume that it's dead and they should be totally focused on you.  Come in, sit down, they'll be over soon.

Another cool thing?  Open SUPER late.  Check this out:


Open till 6am?  WTF?!?!?!?!?!?  Wowza!!!!


There are no photos of the first visit, it was just enjoyed, not documented.  And it was completely enjoyed!!!

The second stop is detailed here-after.  I happened to be lucky enough to arrive when two of the owners were making vegetable dumplings.  Here's that piece of art for you:













I also had the Ho-fun noodles with beef and bean sprouts.  SOOOO good!!!



If you're ever near this place you HAVE TO check it out.  Great, delicious, fast, fresh, did I say delicious?  



Eat more noodles
