Matt and Karina have embarked on the incredible journey of house ownership. They were homeowners before, but this is different. This is a full house. In Queens. That they’re gutting. This is no small undertaking. I went by the new place on Saturday to observe the construction and afterward, Matt and I took Leo to…

Flammekeuche, or tarte flambée, is a French dish that’s basically flatbread pizza with a cracker thin crust. It’s typical of the Alsace region and something I ate all the time when I lived in France but haven’t had since…until now. La Tarte Flambée is a cute little restaurant in my Murray Hill neighborhood. In the year…

Help! The hipsters are invading Queens! That’s certainly what it feels like when you walk up to Rippers at the end of Rockaway Beach. It’s a throwback style surf shack with lots of neon. The clientele with their ironic Flock of Seagulls haircuts look straight out of Brooklyn. And that’s because they are. Apparently there’s…

Last week the weather really began to turn into something nice so when me and a group of coworkers had Wednesday night drink plans, we made sure to pick someplace outside. We may have jumped the gun a bit because after about 45 minutes, the cool breezes from the South Street Seaport started to get…

I’m a fan of beer halls and their long tables, huge beers, and lederhosen. You pretty much know what you’re gonna get and there’s some comfort in that. I will say, however, that Reichenbach Hall does it just a bit better because they have more options. The additional choices don’t make it any less German…there’s just…
