Dan Rosen follows a no-bad-meals policy and feels haunted by any bad meal. He is spending the summer co-writing a rom-com with his brother, recording a culture podcast in borrowed design showrooms, and performing at the Comedy Cellar. He grew up in Yorkville and now eats mostly downtown at spots like Dimes and S&P, while occasionally dining outside the congestion-pricing zone at places like Le Veau d'Or and Caf 9 Sabarsky. His daily routine includes iced cold brews from Birch, intermittent fasting tendencies, quick workout snacks, and biweekly avocado deliveries from Da Avocado Guy.
"I have a no-bad-meals policy," says comedian and Middlebrow co-host Dan Rosen. "If I've had a bad meal, it haunts me for the rest of the day. It's a very dumb and expensive rule, but it's something to look forward to. Maybe the only thing to look forward to."
I usually start my day with a large iced cold brew at Birch by my apartment. In the winter, I make my own coffee, but I don't do well with hot beverages, so for now I spend $6 twice a day. I don't really eat anything before noon, probably because of some half-thought-out attempt at intermittent fasting I tried a few years ago and never grew out of. If I'm working out, I'll grab a banana or half an avocado. I get biweekly deliveries of avocados from Da Avocado Guy, which sounds like something that should send me to the gulag but ends up being less expensive than the grocery store. These are the most buttery, platonic-ideal avocados; they never seem to turn.
