Oh Bruni Don't It Feel Like Heaven Right Now
In tomorrow's Times food critic Frank Bruni will take a look at Freemans, the recently-expanded LES hotspot where hipsters rub elbows with the thrill-seeking UESers who read about it in New York. William Tigertt, the proprietor of Freeman's has been doing a bit of blogging over at Eater, and he graciously recounts the experience of having the city's most powerful reviewer enter his establishment. We're not prone to gushing at Gawker, but we've got to say that Tigertt may actually be a better writer than restaurateur, and this comes from folks who can't get enough devils-on-horseback. If you've ever wondered what it feels like to get Brunied (and not in the fumbling, drunk-at 3 A.M.-in-the-back-of-Bottino way), you need to read this piece.
