WELCOME TO MY LA-BORRRR-A-TORY...O? It was a Dexter's Lab reference, if you didn't catch it. I should probably just move on. If you're a New Yorker, odds are you've heard of Aria Wine Bar. There's a location in the West Village and there's actually a location right near my apartment in Hell's Kitchen. Aria is … Continue reading Food Grind: Laboratorio329
Ben and I decided to wipe the cobwebs off our MoviePasses and spend Friday night seeing a flick. Naturally it was a ridiculously frustrating situation in terms of planning because as soon as we made it to Union Square to pick up our tickets for 'Simple Favor,' MoviePass stopped offering it. HOORAY! I guess it … Continue reading Food grind: Houseman
I usually don't eat too much ice cream, but when it comes soft-serve style and in a fish shaped waffle cone filled with red bean paste, I can reconsider. Meet Taiyaki. It's a Chinatown gem that's bringing the Japanese treat "taiyaki" to the streets of New York. It's recognizable by it's freshly baked fish-shaped ice … Continue reading Taiyaki Takeover
Full disclosure: This should be last week's Restaurant Pick of the Week! I've been falling a little behind over the past couple of days! But fear not: I'm alive, well and back with your daily dose of NYC's best food! (I have another pick for you that's actually for THIS week, so stay tuned!) Christine … Continue reading RPOTW: A.G. Kitchen
I've wanted to check out Vandal for a while now and since we were in the area, it was a perfect opportunity to give it a shot! Check out these pictures! I've never seen a space that looks like this! It's all inspired by street-art culture and the owners (same as the Tao Group) truly captured … Continue reading Brunch at Vandal
If there is one thing Montreal truly does right, it's food. I am in desperate need of a detox after exploring the mouth-watering Montreal food scene (no, but seriously-- since we've gotten back I've bought a ton of fresh fruit and I'm working on eating as raw as possible to recharge my insides!) I've always been a … Continue reading Montreal: Eats
Well maybe you do, but I usually do not. Chocolate, cookies, brownies, cake: count me in! Ice cream's simply just the one sweet treat I've never been able to completely indulge in. That being said, I'm always down to give it a try-- especially if it looks like this cone from Morgenstern's Finest Ice Cream! … Continue reading We all scream for ice cream! (Morgenstern’s)
Last night Ben got his first taste of Parm! I've actually been there before (the Upper West Side location), but last night we went to the Parm on Mulberry Street in Nolita. Chicken parm hero lovers of the world, you NEED to head to Parm to get your cheesey chicken parm fix! They also have … Continue reading Parm Perfection
The ambiance of Sotto 13 alone should be enough to get this West Village pizza haven on your radar. Thankfully, the food and wine selection are AMAZING as well! Tucked away on 13th street, Sotto 13 looks like a cozy little restaurant with outdoor seating, a bar and a few high top tables; however, venture … Continue reading Satisfied at Sotto 13
I've actually never made it down to New York City's historic Stone Street. Part of me has always felt that it's just SO far out of the way being that it's incredibly far downtown. Now that I've actually seen it for myself, I understand why people like it so much! How cute is this place?! … Continue reading Stone Street on Sunday
