Alternatively, I would pay good money to talk Schnipper’s Quality Soups with Brad Lander. The curry crab and corn bisque is an inspired choice and also one of MY favorites there.
From Brad Lander’s Grub Street Diet: I eat the bagel in the car on the way to the interview, and then I have a bit of time before a visit to Zohran's campaign office, so I stop by Schnipper's for some soup. I love a good soup, and Schnipper's is one of my favorite places. Curry crab and corn bisque is one of their soups of the day, and it's great. All city officials have to travel with a security detail, and my officer, Syd, is sometimes skeptical of my culinary enthusiasms - but even he approved.

There is an actually great piece in today’s @vittles.bsky.social about this, centered on immigrant-run restaurants in New York! www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/how-did-zo...
Singh also points out that Mamdani has a nuanced appreciation of entrepreneurship that is centred equally on the social and economic aspects of business. Many young white socialists in New York are suspicious of enterprise and capital on an ideological level, but Mamdani's socialism stems 'not from ideology' as Singh says, but from an appreciation of lived experience 'within our communities! The evening of our interview, Singh invited me to Jackson Heights, one of the most culturally and economically diverse neighbourhoods in the world, where Mamdani handed out Diwali sweets. Food has often been used in political campaigning to help candidates appear more authentic, but this focus on small, immigrant-run restaurants during the Mamdani campaign is unprecedented within American politics. Before the 2020 presidential election in the US, Eater observed that ‘the optics of what politicians eat, and how they eat it, have never been more carefully considered.’ For Mamdani, however, eating – and living – in a joyful and collective way is more than a political posture; it is inextricable from the social and political values of cohabitating in New York (which is all the more significant, given that his primary opponents are well known for their hatred of the city). His campaign shifts the focus away from relatability and towards how policy can support the small businesses that keep those values alive.
