Cuisine. Culture. Commentary.
A good chunk of our Sunday was spent aboard the North River Lobster Company‘s vessel or, as I like to call it, “Lobstah Boat”. The downside is that there are no crazy food or drink specials so you can’t plan this as an all you can drink booze cruise unless you plan to shell out…

My meal at ABC Kitchen did not disappoint, so I had high hopes for ABC Cocina, the latest and greatest restaurant from the group. I am happy to report that Jean-Georges has done it again. And I should know because I ate half the menu. We started with two of the waiter’s recommendations, the spring…

Apparently I am the only person who works in Midtown West that didn’t know about the rooftop at Hudson Hotel. Not only does such a place exist, but it’s a gorgeous space. The roof looks alive with all the ivy growing through it and the furniture is substantial enough to be indoors so it doesn’t…

When I saw the low prices at Desi Galli I decided to order. it. up. I felt like a baller ordering item after item. I figured the portions would be small based on the prices, but even my $5.99 chicken tikka kathi roll (basically an Indian wrap sandwich) was enough to satisfy me. It came…

I had some great ideas about how I would spend the Derby on Saturday. I planned to gather all my fabulous friends, we’d wear fabulously dapper outfits, and we would have a fabulous party at a bar. Unfortunately, pretty much all my friends were busy and/or out of town so the fabulous-ness was put on…

After drinking all day we picked dinner on Saturday based on…more drinking. We stumbled into Kumo Sushi in the West Village for all you can eat sushi + all you can drink sake and beer. The price came to just over $40/person and the food and drinks kept flowing. I thought the giant pitchers they…

My friend Wendy is a fabulous foodie who also knows her way around a kitchen. If she says a restaurant is good, you can probably take her word for it. I reached out to her for suggestions for Jen’s visit because Jen wanted to be sure to check out the hottest spot on the NYC…

Sarah was always my ultimate Broadway buddy so we take in a show every time she’s back in town. After seeing Aladdin (fun for the whole family!) we wanted to grab a bite to eat but didn’t want to be hemmed into the overpriced and underflavored restaurants of Times Square. We hopped the 2 one…
