Superiority Burger is the best restaurant in New York City. It has a passionate and punk spirit, and their flavors are unmatched. Something about the food and the ethos reminds me of the food I grew up eating in the Bay Area. Creative, seasonal, fresh as fuck… it’s very grounded and connected to the source but still playful. You can literally taste the magic! I’ve been going there so long and so often that I’ve become a known regular and am now friends with the iconic owner Brooks. I have been in spiritual pain while they’ve been on hiatus for the last few months preparing to re-open in the old Odessa diner space. When they finally open you will probably find me and Nancy there 5 days out of the week (if not 7…lol). See you there! P.S. Their cookbook also has the world’s best banana bread recipe- TRUST ME.

Superiority Burger is a restaurant in NYC right across the street from Thompson Square Park and the creative force behind the foodstuffs served there is Brooks Headly, who can feed you nutritiously but seems to thrive on super-charging your sweet tooth like really nobody's business. for NY, it's affordable, but you should go with a little extra money so that you may try everything on the menu. it's pretty fairly completely vegetarian and even heaps vegan. it's a big reality in a tiny universe.

here are some of my NYC tops thus far (i am still looking for my favorite...)
-Ear Inn 7/10 (patty's got a good kick, i asked gary the owner if they add an excessive amount of black pepper as the secret, he didn't confirm. buns were dry last time though)
-Superiority Burger 8/10 (i have yet to try a whole one by myself bc friends always insist on SHARING but that won't happen next time)
-Raouls 6.5/10 (way too fucking messy for that price... felt feral... yet tasty)
Thai Diner 7/10 (i love going to asian restaurants just for american-style burgers)
-Burger Joint 6/10 (great spot for selfies in the hotel hallway before/after)
Shake Shack 8/10 (how can you not)
Corner Bistro 5/10 (it was fine)
-J.G. Melon 5/10 (overrated)
-White Mana in NJ 8/10 (maybe doesn't count)
i'm partial to smash style and prefer sandwiches with structure sans the bulky patty BS... people have also suggested burgs from Long Island Bar, Minetta, Bernie's, and Lexington Candy Shop (thank you/you're welcome)

then reinventing the wheel, and then taking a trip to Southeast Asia.
After that, your table will be ready.

If you know anything about anything… you know that gut health is the ultimate wealth. It is literally the foundation of everything related to health and wellness. Mental health, physical health.. if you don’t have a robust gut microbiome you will be suffering somehow. I have probably taken upwards of 100 courses of antibiotics in my life which is not only insane but also super bad for you / your gut. I’ve been trying to go hard re-populating my gut with the good stuff and Bio-k is one of my favorite ways to do so. It’s expensive as fuck but it’s super powerful and I’m addicted to the taste. I want them to sponsor me. The best flavor is the vegan blueberry made with rice.

Everywhere I go I’m looking for treasure. Sometimes it's just a nice looking rock or radiant shell, other times I find a gold chain or wad of cash on the sidewalk. I have always had a collectors spirit and can’t help but to keep my eyes peeled at all moments for something shiny or blessed. You can get so much joy and life force from charmed objects. I can see myself ending up as the cliche eccentric person on the beach with the metal detector looking for precious objects in the sand. Your trash is probably my treasure. For example, I have a beautiful blue plastic bottle I have kept for 5-6 years and have brought all around the world with me.

Best underwear ever. 100% organic cotton and super soft. Understated but still sexy. I love the string bikini. I’m trying to replace all of my underwear and most of my clothes with natural fibers.
