...that I was going to love Birds & Bubbles! Lie, they did not. April and I headed down to the Lower East Side today to nom on some fried chicken and biscuits. (Are you seeing a trend here? My insides are. They are not happy, but my tastebuds say otherwise.) Tucked away on the basement … Continue reading A little bird told me…

”…and in the morning, I’m makin’ (chicken +) waffles!”
Donkey from "Shrek", get it? My tastebuds were jumping for joy today thanks to Sweet Chick! If the title of this post didn't give it away... it was a majorly filling (and fulfilling) chicken and waffles extravaganza. I adored this rustic Williamsburg joint and I'm sure that after checking out the pictures, you'll understand why. … Continue reading ”…and in the morning, I’m makin’ (chicken +) waffles!”
Jack’s Wife Who?
I've been wanting to try Jack's Wife Freda for so long because... Instagram? Kidding. I've seriously wanted to try the food and having seen the restaurant, it definitely has a quaint vibe. We tried the Nolita location and I left with a broken heart and empty stomach because the wait was an hour and a … Continue reading Jack’s Wife Who?
Labor Day at Pinks
Ben and I ended up saying so long to summer at Pinks in the East Village. Neither of us had ever been, but I think it's safe to say we'll be back. The ambiance is super cool: there's a laid back, grungy-rock, somewhat industrial theme going on. Make sure you check out the pictures below. … Continue reading Labor Day at Pinks
A different kind of bar…
Stumbled into Macbar down on Prince St. today for a quick late afternoon bite. We were wandering around in the area and noticed it from across the street. Who could possibly resist a restaurant with a menu full of different kinds of mac and cheese?! Clearly, not us. It's a really tiny spot (only three … Continue reading A different kind of bar…
Good vibes at Palma
It's always fun to wander off the street and into a new great dinner spot-- discovering new places (without the help of social media) is one of my favorite things to do. It's even better to get the chance to do it with a childhood friend who literally brings to the table not just fun, … Continue reading Good vibes at Palma
Just because it’s easy to overlook…
Uncle Marios on the corner of 50th and 9th. Great pizza and with all the restaurants in Hell's Kitchen, it's easy to miss. I will say, however, if you're looking for a fine dining experience, this place isn't for you. The service is chaotic (it's a one-woman show and she's constantly yelling out orders as … Continue reading Just because it’s easy to overlook…
Two thumbs up for Two Hands
Headed down to Two Hands for some healthy goodness today. My budget-peasant-diet this week has consisted primarily of pizza and four days worth of pasta, so it was nice to get my hands on some fresh avocado toast! So yummy. I was dead set on getting an acai bowl, but I'm glad I ended up … Continue reading Two thumbs up for Two Hands
Beating the heat at Kith Treats
Ben has been a longtime Ronnie Fieg fan, which is how I found out about Kith. I definitely owe my discovery of the "street wear" style to Ben and Kith is a major leader in the niche industry. We've been to both the Soho store and the Brooklyn store various times and we've had Kith … Continue reading Beating the heat at Kith Treats
Pasta at Bar Pitti
I've been wanting to try Bar Pitti in the West Village for a while now, so I'm happy that we finally made it over there this weekend! I've heard a mix of reviews about it in terms of food and service, which made me slightly hesitant to suggest it to the group, but I'm really … Continue reading Pasta at Bar Pitti
