Sweet Afton
On Sunday, my beau and I went to help Matt and Karina with their move. Manual labor works up an appetite, so after unpacking some boxes and installing AC units, we headed to Sweet Afton for some brunch. After doing some research, I learned Sweet Afton is owned by the same folks as Wilfie and…

The Marshal
So I had no idea about The Marshal‘s commitment to sustainability when I went to brunch there on Sunday. All I knew was that Rebekah and Alex asked if we could come to their Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood, and I simply chose the restaurant out of their four suggestions that I thought had the best looking…

I had tried Little Beet when it was near my old office and really enjoyed their healthy, seasonal concept. When Brutus suggested meeting at their sit down restaurant, Little Beet Table, I was interested to see how they would translate the idea to a more formal experience. Little Beet Table serves farm to table food…

Ruby’s
Ok so we all agree SoHo is a cool part of town. And since Ruby’s – a cool, SoHo restaurant – chose Murray Hill as the neighborhood for their second location, that makes us cool, too, right? The Ruby’s menu has some Aussie vibes (fish and chips, vegemite) with the bulk of the menu falling…

Crooked Knife
A boozy brunch felt like it was necessary, so Rebekah, Lindsay, and I hit up Crooked Knife (14th Street location, between 7th and 8th) for some mimosas and good convo over the weekend. There’s a mish mash of furniture at Crooked Knife. There are Victorian couches in the front, burlap covered banquettes in the back,…
