What food has the same texture as oil pastels?
Someone I know has told me that the texture of high quality oil pastels (unctuous, creamy(?)) sparks something of a desire to EAT them.
They are quite rational and sensible and don't want to *actually* eat their oil pastels, but want to know if there's any genuine foodstuff that has a similar texture and (potential) mouth-feel.
I can't think of a single thing. Can anyone help?

Barcelona restaurant recommendations
My wife and I are going to Barcelona in early March. We've got the sightseeing stuff well in hand, but would like some restaurant recommendations, especially for at least one higher-end place. I am sure we will get our fill of tapas, paella, and other typical Spanish/Catalonian stuff for tourists, so I want to know what are some of the better places in the city for fine dining. Doesn't have to be El Bulli level, but we do want at least one memorable dining experience. I am a VERY adventurous eater (my wife less so, but usually game to try things).
Potluck: farm community edition

Make it easy while I'm in the Big Easy!
The girlfriend and I are getting ready to go to New Orleans next week for the first time.
We are not big partiers but would call ourselves foodies.
What spots so we make sure we hit keeping away from the touristy stuff?
Outside of great restaurants, what else are must sees in New Orleans?
Thanks in advance
Explain Napa Valley to me

When in Boston eat the Lobstah Roll?
Over the course of the summer I have a couple fairly long lay overs in Boston. My intention is to use this time to explore the Freedom Trail and the MFA (over the course of several trips). I would also like to try out a couple of lobster rolls during these adventures. [more inside]
What should I put in a vegan food gift basket?
Recipients are kind of foodies and items will probably be purchased at Whole Foods. Also, they drink...so I won't be including alcohol, but related food items (or other small gifty items) are ok.

Gimme that Honey Mustard
Easy question, I hope: my wife loves Burger King's honey mustard. You know, the dipping kind that comes in the little square 'tubs' when you get chicken strips. However, we cannot find a comparable flavor at the grocery store. I have to admit we haven't taste-tested every kind yet -- but I'm hoping one of you has. [more inside]

Interesting, intelligent, cultural, or culinary activities in NYC
My partner will be in NYC for the next month for medical treatment, with varying energy levels, and I will be visiting her over the long weekends. Looking for people's favorite diversions that would be appropriate for a non-athletic, museum-interested, grad-school-educated, foodie couple based on the Upper East Side (70th St.)
We're 40-somethings who've done a lot of the NY standard stuff in the past, including the big UES museums and MOMA -- although I have to admit a lot of my experience is nearly 20 years ago at this point -- but we're both comfortable using the Metrocard to take subways and buses around town. Partner will probably not be up to walks over 20-30 minutes. Just looking for cool stuff locals might recommend for weekend activities that wouldn't be in travel guides or major web sites or mobbed with typical tourists.
Thanks in advance!

Can anyone recommend a Japanese restaurant with equally strong sushi and non-sushi menus for a sushi first-timer?
NYC-foodie-filter: A friend of mine wants to try sushi for the very first time. The game plan is to order a couple of pieces as an appetizer and either proceed to a full entree if she enjoys it or bail and order something different if it turns out that raw fish is not to her liking. Can anyone recommend a Japanese restaurant with equally strong sushi and non-sushi menus for this culinary adventure? I'd prefer a place in Manhattan or Queens, easily accessible from Midtown Manhattan and reasonably priced. Not too fancy. [more inside]
