Sexy Food: tomatoes are sexy

Do you think tomatoes are not sexy? You've never tried slow roasting! Eat as you are, like the side dishes of mutton, chicken and turkey, or make them into perfect ingredients for pasta and homemade pizza.

Slowly baked tomatoes are juicy, stimulating and light. Well, they're really a tempting dish!

Best Dating Apps for New Yorkers

New York has 8.5 million inhabitants. The person who suits you tonight or the rest of your life is out there. Maybe you saw your husband/lady on the Brooklyn Bridge yesterday, or sat next to him/her in a cafe on the east side this afternoon.

Big Apple has no problem with interesting singles. But for New Yorkers, knowing them has become a real challenge. We are too busy, too busy with other things, too eager to spend a lot of time in bars and parks, waiting for a definite blow. That's why dating apps have become part of New York dating culture. It's just an episode between you and your exciting date. Of course, if you're using the right application, search for and meet real New Yorkers in your local New York city.

To help you find an application that works for you, we studied the most interesting mobile dating services and listed the pros and cons of the most suitable dating applications for New Yorkers.

• Align
• 

Pros: Made exclusively for NYC and L.A., so you don’t go wasting your time on someone you’ll never be able to meet in real life

Cons: Users are matched based on the horoscope compatibility. Taurus for Capricorn and Gemini for Libra. Or is it all the other way around? A questionable matchmaking algorithm. But fun though.

• Secret Desire

Pros: An app featuring good local-based search. But the best part is anonymity. No wearing masks, no pretending someone you are not. Speak up your desires and find other New Yorkers who are up for the exact same thing. It might be just a sexy chat, a one night stand adventure or a beginning of true love.

Cons: The app is not for New Yorkers only. You can chat with your neighbor next door or find someone on the other coast. It’s not a con actually, but you have to be specific on your goals and search parameters.

• Sweatt
• 
• Pros: A purely NYC app focused on gyms, fitness and yoga classes. A nice mobile spot to meet someone like-minded, if you are all into sports.
  Cons: No sport in your life and not a single thought about it? Then you won’t see any good matches on this one. Sorry.
• Happn
• Pros: An app designed to find that same stranger you liked on the aboveground train or in the Central Park last week. We are not sure, if the idea is good for small towns somewhere in Midwest, bur it surely works for the Big Apple.
  Cons: Your matches are people rushing along the same daily routs and the same streets as you are. And what if your soulmate is usually taking another train? Oops. Happn is of no help for you two
• TinderPros: An app that has changed the field of mobile dating and introduced swiping into the world of matchmaking. Right-swipe is a yes, lift-swipe is a no. Liked someone who right-swiped you too? Congrats, you are a match! It’s all easy. And the local NYC search is quite good too.
  Cons: Swiping is fun for the first two days or so. Then it becomes real exhausting. There are zillions of users in New York alone and you are very likely to miss or ‘mis-swipe’ your Mr./Ms. Right because of all the crowd.
• OkCupid
• Pros: Another easy-to-use and very popular dating app in New York and all over the world. The matchmaking algorithm is simple, just hit or miss, but many users registered and good search-customizing tools make OkCupid quite efficient.
  
  Cons: The app shares Tinder problems. It’s nice to know you have zillions of users in New York City to choose from. But it might get quite disappointing and exhausting as it gets to real matchmaking.
  As you can see, the apps above have their pros and cons. But all of them do work and help singles in New York City meet each other. Mobile dating is a real catch for our fast lifestyles and busy schedules. Your date is already there waiting for you to download an app, so go for it!
