The Best Thing I Ate Yesterday

Welcome to The Best Thing I Ate Yesterday, where we endeavor to remember the very best thing we stuffed down our gullets over the past 24 hours. Why? Because the only thing better than enjoying a meal is wallowing in the memory of one savored in the recent past.

Today's fond reminiscences ...

Robert Sietsema: Bacon cheeseburger at J.G. Melon (1291 Third Avenue, 212-650-1310).

Victoria Bekiempis: Meatless stuffed cabbage with tomato sauce and mushroom gravy at Veselka (144 Second Avenue, 212-228-9682).

Rebecca Marx: Roasted kabocha squash and brussels sprouts with walnuts, goat's milk feta, and farro, made at home.

Chantal Martineau: "North American" Rum Old Fashioned, made (and named) at home with Cruzan rum, maple syrup, and the Bitter Truth Bittermens Xocolatl Mole bitters.
