Fictional Hipster Restaurant Names, Illustrated

January 9, 2015 by Chris Durso

Hawthorne & Cleaver

If you’re unfamiliar with the restaurant-naming convention inspired by hipsters, I’ll break it down for you. It’s pretentious, tired, and there are many vintage tools and ampersands involved.

Brewmaster at Brooklyn Brewery, Garrett Oliver, having the benefit of experience and geographic location to make such observations, has been having a little fun with the hipster-naming trend. The best part, besides the hipster-bashing, is how easy it is to use this branding-technique with whatever you may have laying around the house.

Try it with a few random items you have around and send a pic and name over. The best one will receive a vintage cleaver and a year’s supply of mustache wax.*

Space Sushi Launches Raw Fish and Rice Into The Hemispheres and Beyond

October 30, 2014 by Chris Durso

Space Sushi is a Twitter account that appears to exist for no other reason, other than to show raw fish and rice dangling in space.

The fictional government agency displays all kinds of makis and hand rolls above the stratosphere. No mention of what the point of all this is… but it does make me want a sushi lunch while watching 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Twitter vs. Facebook: Foodiggity’s Race to 2000 Giveaway

June 1, 2012 by Chris Durso

Anyone who follows Foodiggity on a regular basis, knows that when we’re not supplying the best in food culture on our blog, we’re wasting time on social media platforms such as Twitter and Facebook.

Now that it’s all knotted up, we’re racing to get to 2000 followers on Twitter and Facebook. And people are going to win stuff.

So, fans of Foodiggity, it’s simple… The first platform to hit 2000 will host a monster giveaway. Suggest us to your friends and followers, and fans who mention this giveaway (hashtag #foodiggity2k on Twitter, like or share our Facebook post) will be entered to win stuff from The Foodiggity Shop.
