What To Eat Wednesday! Brother Jimmy’s PRESS’D BOURBON BRISKET SANDWICH

Good afternoon,

I hope everyone has been well. Happy Hump Day Wednesday! Today’s post is about a wonderful sandwich combo that I had recently at Brother Jimmy’s BBQ Restaurant. This restaurant is located in Midtown Manhattan, right next to Madison Square Garden in New York City. This outstanding sandwich is one of my favorite go to sandwiches after a long visit at the camera shop, B & H Photo.

The Sandwich

This sandwich freshly slice smoked brisket, pressed in cheddar cheese; each bite, the gooey cheese pulls and elopes from your grasp. Then there is a complimenting bowl of crisp sweet potato tots! Delicious with every chew. You slap on some of their spicy ketchup on each bite, it enhances your chew.

The Service

Brother Jimmy’s is a stand-up BBQ spot. You get your money’s worth. The waiters and waitresses have outstanding character and very quick to serve. BRIGHT SMILE and will keep you laughing.

Recommendation

If you’re visiting NYC, stop by one of Brother Jimmy’s restaurants and enjoy some nice BBQ food and have a great time! Ohh, tell Rachel that Eric sent you, you might get a surprise. haha

Stay tuned! Will be posting more from my NYC excursions and other various restaurants I visit. I’m going to put you guys on good food for your buck!

MGM – Mean Green Machine Smoothie

Good afternoon,

Hope last night wasn’t too hard on you. This is a simple smoothie I usually make to get the day brewing.

Ingredients:

• Kale (good stuff guys)
• Carrots
• Pears
• Honey
• Cucumbers
• 1/2 Cup Apple Juice
• Mint Leaves

Throw all of those ingredients in the Nutribullet Rx system and make sure I get all of the fruits and vegetables. When making smoothies, I find it great to try different ingredients that would have a synergistic effect on our bodies; for example, did you know garlic is a natural blood pressure reliever? Research and try things. It’s pretty cool. Oh yeah, I took this shoot with my new 50 mm 1.8G. Lets see how it works out!

“Nothing To Eat In The Fridge” Tomato Soup!

Good afternoon my friends!

It’s a lovely Friday afternoon, shoes are off, your work shirt is getting unbuttoned and you’re trying to figure out what to do this action packed weekend. You can watch the Floyd Mayweather, Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao. You can probably watch the immense game seven match-up between the Clippers and Spurs playoff nail-bitter. Or you can sit here and try to make a simple tomato soup when you feel sick after all that drinking and partying you’ve doing haha. This recipe is something I created from a developing palate and pure innovation with what was in my fridge.

Ingredients

• 3-4 tomatoes
• 2 cups of water
• Dashes of cayenne, salt and pepper
• Fresh Parsley and Oregano
• Roasted Garlic (2-3 cloves) and Shallots
• Croutons (Homemade wheat bread or whatever bread is at your disposal)
• Secret Ingredient (7 seedless sweet grapes) Gives a hint of sweetness

Finished Product

Not bad for my first ever tomato soup huh! I must add, I used the Nutribullet System to converge this flavor packed soup and it’s so amazing. I hope you guys love this post and please share it and enjoy your weekend!

Portrait Tuesday!

Hello Friends,

Hope your Tuesday is going well and smoothly. Today I’m going to showcase some business portraits I took for a colleague of mine, Douglas Lomonaco. Douglas is a dean at Rutgers University in Newark, New Jersey. He told me we wanted to acquire some professional business portraits. I brought my “portable studio” to the office of student affairs and took some professional portraits for him and the staff. They came out awesome and just wanted to share a few. If you would like to make any professional portraits inquires, please contact me

WPPI PART 2

Good day to you all. TGIF. Aren’t you glad it’s Friday? Today’s post is part two of the WPPI, seminars, expos and pictures from Hakkasan where Rev Run killed it. During the time at the expo, I stopped by awesome stations; however, I liked the Nikon School the most. The focused on the basics in portrait photography and gave the little hits help increase our qualities. During the conference I attended various seminars but the one that intrigued me most was from Rob Greer. He was a knowledgeable, down to earth photographer; consequently, his insight has given me a boost. Sometimes all we need is boost to get things going again. I’m also thankful for all the presenters and inspirational speakers at the Photo Ignite session; there, photographers had 5 minutes to ignite us and they that gracefully. Here are some more iphone 4s shots of my time there. Oh yeah, did I mention I love sushi? haha

If you would like to receive words of wisdom from Captain Logan, the full report is available on the Jungle Gym Magazine. Till then, stay thirsty my friends. And Special Thank You to G-Shock for the media gifts (minus the limited edition g-shock)

Last Thursday, I took my last final for the spring semester. To give myself a break, I attended a private heineken star bottle event at the Brooklyn Naval Yard. The whole set up was amazing! Black carpet roll up, tall green goddess siring ice cold beverages with a smile and private boats scooping people up every 20 minutes to keep the place flowing. The Naval warehouse was decked out with a greenery wall in the front where i used my new macro lens. The place was packed and had some celebrities as well; Wilmer Valderrama (Fez from That 70s Show below) Overall, and surprise performance by the band FUN. Enjoy the photos, more to come soon.

GOOD EATS

This past week I have making my physical life better. Slowed down on the drinking and now focusing on the healthy aspects of life. Nothing better than some first. So made myself a homemade strawberry-lime ice tea.

 

Today, I decided to hit up the beach with my friend Andres. We first had to try this awesome Sushi place called Sawa Steakhouse. Couple steps from the beach and we are in there. Awesome spot, try the food. All pictures are taken from my iphone and instagram.
