I’m a little late in reporting this one, but I could not forget about it altogether because my dinner at One if by Land, Two if by Sea was truly unforgettable. Make sure you’ve got deep pockets for this one because it will set you back a small mortgage, but it was delicious. We were…

Dovetail
I have a very good reason for not blogging recently: my parents were in town!!! Not sure if you know this, but my parents are incredibly cool, so when they’re here, they receive every ounce of my attention. We pretty much did everything there was to do, so let me start at the beginning. Friday…

Abe and Arthur’s
Last night was another great dining experience with coworkers. It was a Thursday night, and we were 4 hot mamas, so the only logical dinner location was Meatpacking. Didn’t you know? I’m one of the beautiful people. We went wild on the menu: Appetizers: Tuna Tartar Tacos Hamachi Sashimi (Pictured below, top row, far right):…

I am happy to say that I crossed another restaurant off my list on Saturday night! I am always intrigued by a restaurant that specializes in something. I think it is because I like the idea that they are throwing themselves into something 100%, nothing half-assed about it. The latest restaurant to catch my eye…

After some last minute changes in plans on Saturday night, we found ourselves walking into Kellari Taverna for dinner. We didn’t have a reservation but were seated immediately.

Death & Company
Saturday was a great day, start to finish. Ess-a-Bagel was a smart way to start the day and fill up on carbs before heading to The Village Pourhouse for some day drinking while watching the Masters. Golf may not be the typical sport companion for day drinking, but we seemed to make it work. By the time the…

How fast can I eat a burger? My speed will astonish and amaze you. If I am hungry and the burger is good, I am a BEAST. I’m pretty sure I inhaled my Burger Joint masterpiece in less than 2 minutes. Walk into one of the swankiest hotels in New York and the last thing you’d expect…

I was so happy to have Carlen in the city all weekend! After a yummy dinner at The Smith on Friday and a great lunch at Nanoosh (a hummus restaurant near my apartment) on Saturday, we had to finish off the weekend with a great Sunday brunch (the trifecta). Since the weather gods decided to…

Here’s a tip, fellow diners: if you walk into an ethnic restaurant and every patron is of that ethnicity and speaking a language other than English, you’ve likely hit the jackpot. That was my experience this past Saturday night at Saravana. Hearing only foreign sounds was music to my ears because I knew I was…

Last night I hit up Landmarc in Tribeca with some co-workers, and I was happy I did. Although it has been a short work week, we were thoroughly stressed by the end of Thursday and ready for some good food and wine. Landmarc picks up flavors from all over Europe, but I kind of liked…
