Alex Delany is a Lower East Side based food, beverage, and hospitality consultant with scary good taste in pretty much everything this newsletter covers. He’s turned us on to all kinds of shit over the years whether it’s coffee, music, booze, clothes, books, art, or food, so it only made sense for us to have him on Perfectly Imperfect to drop some hot recs. If you follow Alex on IG you probably already know he has a series of frequently updated (and fantastic) playlists on his Spotify, but did you know that next week he’s dropping a brand new radio show called “Sound Radio”? Yup! And on this show you can expect to find artists, designers, writers, chefs, winemakers, architects, photographers, and musicians sharing songs they love— you can check out the show on Anchor, Spotify, or Apple Music! Alex clearly has great taste and lucky for us, he’s here to talk about what he’s been into.

There are crackers that cool, young, brand-savvy, culinary enthusiasts eat. And then there are crackers that old Southern Italian Grandpas eat. I’m fine with the former, but I prefer the latter. Taralli, If you’re not familiar, are the latter. They’re a style of cracker that is essentially a bread stick (made with a slightly denser dough) curled in on itself to form a circle, usually with a shiny, smooth exterior. A lot of taralli have things like fennel seeds, pepper flakes, or dried herbs folded into the dough, but these rosemary and sea salt ones from Bello Rustico are the best I’ve found stateside. The exterior is more textural, and the cracker itself is buttery and extremely flaky, right at home with some roasted red peppers, a hunk of piave, or a slice of mortadella.
