TAKING A BITE OUT OF THE

BIG APPLE

Local foodies sample, dine and nosh in the city that never sleeps.

Gourmet Attitude (laboutiquedelatruffe.com), a truffle importer, has a line of products that include among other things, truffle honey (4.23 oz/$19). It’s a strange combo but oddly compelling. I haven’t figured out what to do with it yet but for now, I’m eating it out of the jar with a spoon. They also make white truffle oil (3.38 oz/$21); truffle carpaccio, slices of black truffles in olive oil (2.82 oz/$35), and a white truffle cream (2.28 oz/$27). Just add a touch of butter and you have a very impressive—yes, I slaved for hours—pasta sauce.
