It’s rare to have such a perfect dining experience, where everything fits into place – the ambiance, the music, the service, the wine, and the food. It happened last night. It happened at Jules Bistro. Last night, as the village erupted with ghosts and goblins, we found a excellent refuge at Jules Bistro. Not that […]
My apologies for the gratuitous photo here, but LOOK AT THAT DELICIOUSNESS! I finally decided to try the (relatively) new joint, Stocked at 635 Vanderbilt Avenue in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. They have a selection of sandwiches, salads, prepared foods, rotisserie chicken, among other things. From what I can tell, this place is extremely kid-friendly, […]
Casellula ranks as my favorite cheese and wine bar, by a landslide. Located on the corner of 52nd Street and 9th Avenue, I often come here for a quick bite and glass of wine before seeing a show. They serve a menu of small, medium, and large plates, and have an exceptional Fromager. I adore the […]
It’s been a very long time since I’ve been in the mood to post. Maybe it’s the nice weather, the fact that I am engaged in a 9-5 work-like activity again (and therefore less scatterbrained), or perhaps it was fabulous company of my brooklynite girly pals the other night, but here I am! After about a year of scheduling […]
Went to James in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn (605 Carlton Avenue) for brunch last Sunday. Love this place! While it can get a little pricey for dinner, brunch is very reasonable. They also just started serving lunch from 11:30 AM – 3 PM Tuesday through Friday, which I look forward to trying. Some other great […]
I’m ashamed of myself that last night was the first time I’ve ever been to Joe’s Pub after having lived in the city for over six years. I have clearly been overlooking an entertainment gem. Those of you who have been for a concert, know what a comfortable, intimate, and accoustically gorgeous venue it is. Granted, […]
Recently, I spent a lazy Sunday afternoon at Brooklyn Brewery during Smorgasbrewey and got to taste the most divine tiny pork bun, made by Connie Sun of Bite Size Kitchen. All I can say is that it was amazing. You should check out her site and visit her table at the Brooklyn Flea […]
Last night, I went to Tree Bistro, located a 190 1st ave (between 11th and 12th Sts.) with a Bloomspot coupon ($20 for $40 worth of food and drink). Overall, the experience was great. I loved the atmosphere and our waiter (who may have been one of the owners) was perfect. We ordered two glasses […]
That’s right folks – this is a little piece of heaven on a Sunday morning – almost. Recently a friend and I decided to try out Amity Hall (80 West 3rd Street, Manhattan) for brunch. I go there for happy hour on occasion (decent, and a good space for parties), but this was my […]
Milk Bar (located at 620 Vanderbilt Ave at the corner of Prospect Place in Brooklyn) is a great place to go for a small bite to eat and a decent cup of coffee. My favorite things on menu are the Full Eggs with Avocado (optional) and the cinnamon toast (scrumptious). Pictured above is my […]
