So my friend and blogger Lisa kindly invited me to celebrate my birthday at this newly opened Chinese restaurant: Hunan Slurp. At first glance, it was a great choice as Pete Wells, famous restaurant critic at the New York Times, wrote highly about it. And at second glance, it was still a great choice!
The brunch at Fausto is great! They have this huge French toast topped with seasonal compote and mascarpone. It’s so big you wonder how you’ll finish it, but it’s so good that in the blink of an eye the dish is empty!
Getting a reservation during decent hours at Carbone is no easy task. But I read on Eater dining guide that it gets much easier if your name is Barak Obama!
Danish chef Ronny Emborg, the executive chef of the two Michelin-starred restaurant Atera, is an architect, a designer, and a true artist!
Colonia Verde features Latino American cuisine in a charming and softly lit atmosphere located in Brooklyn. The brick-like tile floor is reminiscent of a farmhouse interior. The table, chairs, benches, and bar at the entrance are made of wood, lending a rustic flavor to the decor. The back of the restaurant has a different feel due to its glass roof; it’s a bright winter garden and the open-air patio is an oasis on a warm day. It’s especially pleasant for weekend brunches.
abcV is heaven for Vegans, Vegetarians, and all the Vs that go with it. Seriously, the place looks like heaven – white, clean, and beautiful. This is what it looks like in the movies at least!
I don’t need to introduce you anymore to Enrique Olvera, the chef-owner of Pujol in Mexico City, who partnered with chef Daniela Soto-Innes at Cosme and Atla. He is the world-renowned chef who is redefining Mexican cuisine!
One day, a young man rode the subway from Morningside Heights all the way down to Soho (for those who are not familiar with Manhattan, this is about a 45min trip). He then walked to Rubirosa, ordered a take-out pizza, returned to the Upper West Side to surprise his sweetheart with her favorite pizza in NYC! Ah, l’amour!
Did you know the East Village is considered the San Sebastián of NYC? I personally didn’t, but that is what the sign in front of Huertas claims. I doubt that this is an accurate statement, but I definitely ate pintxos (Basque version of tapas) … or certainly something close to it.
If Heaven is a place, then a bite of Lady M’s Mille Crêpes is a part of the neighborhood!
