I almost forgot to blog about a cute little bar we went to on Friday night after the comedy show and dinner! That would have been a little sad because it was a good little find. With Susan’s direction, we left the West Village and took the E to TriBeCa to check out Bubble Lounge.…

Yerba Buena
Saturday night, we headed to Yerba Buena for what was to be a wonderful dinner. I’ve been to Yerba Buena before, but I’ve never gone after the menu the way I did this weekend. We discovered the maitre d’ used to live in Savannah and soon became BEST friends. Our new buddy hooked us up with…

The Commodore
Yesterday was all about eating in Williamsburg. We started the afternoon by going to 3rd Ward‘s 3rd Annual Pig Out! celebration. 3rd Ward is an artist collective that offers classes and workspace and apparently some pretty awesome events. Check it out if you’re artsy…or if you just like fun, porky events. The team from the…

I had a wild night on Friday night – very rare for me, which meant I woke up on Saturday morning remembering why I usually leave going out to Saturday nights. We were meeting friends in the East Village so we chose KGB Bar as a meeting spot after seeing it was a Critic’s Pick on…

Today, a few co-workers and I hit up Mexican restaurant Toloache for lunch. Since we were heading back to work, we skipped the margs, but in the past they have been quite enjoyable. Thankfully, I didn’t need to be drunk to enjoy the food. Since we had been there before, we knew the guacamole trio…

On Saturday night, Matt, Greg, Susan, Dave and I headed to the LES to celebrate Susan’s successful fundraising event for the Gulf Coast oil spill cleanup efforts. Susan put together a fabulous New Orleans themed event (think: bloody marys, hurricanes, king cake, Popeye’s, beads, and a great raffle) so a little afterparty was in order and…

As the last hoorah of my b-day celebration, I took yesterday off to celebrate it like the holiday it is. It was a perfect day: I caught up on my DVR’d shows, read/people-watched in the park, and enjoyed a burger. Burger spot brgr opened their 2nd outpost this weekend, and it is conveniently located around…

Dave knows how to keep me happy throughout my bday weekend – help me cross more restaurants off my list! I’m rarely in the UWS, but we had to run and errand and found ourselves hungry for lunch in an unfamiliar neighborhood. Since we were in the mood to explore, we decided to walk around…
Read MoreTamarind
I kicked off my birthday weekend (it’s a big birthday – I deserve a whole weekend) by crossing a restaurant off my list. After hearing Susan talk/blog about Tamarind, the Indian restaurant was added to my ever lengthening list of must-trys. I don’t usually connect Indian fare with fine dining, but Tamarind takes Indian food…

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…
