Jul 04, 3:00AM

The Lonesome Independence Day Of Kobayashi, Eater In Exile
Jul 03, 10:28PM
On a May evening, in a cramped biergarten behind a German restaurant off the Bowery in Manhattan, Takeru Kobayashi sat down to a plate of Rheinischer Sauerbraten mit Kartoffelklößen und Rotkraut. First, he produced a small camera and began photographing the sauerbraten for his blog, where he catalogs his personal gustatory experiences. He was dressed in yellow pants, a summer scarf, and a blazer with multicolored markings resembling graffiti. Some nearby diners looked up when the camera flashed, but Kobayashi, the great Kobayashi, went unrecognized, in the city where he became a celebrity.

Jul 03, 7:00PM
The fine folks at B&H Photo are heavily discounting the Canon EOS M 18MP Mirrorless Camera for a limited time. $300 gets you the camera body with the EF-M 22mm f/2 STM Lens, and you also have the option of bumping it up to $350 to get a 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM Lens instead.
