If you have a little extra cash on you for lunch and you like your food with a side of technology, then make the trip over to Foodparc. I'm not going to lie I think it's pricey, but it's a cool concept and most of the food I had was […]

Bites from Rickshaw Dumplings
I dropped in to Rickshaw Dumplings on 23rd st last week for lunch…and it was just ok. Interestingly enough, we had catered a party once with Rickshaw's food and I thought it was much better. Isn't that weird? I like their dumpling fillings, but I thought the dough had that […]
Spanakopita aka Spinach Pie
As promised, I will be sharing some recipes from my big fat Greek Easter. First up? Spanakopita. I don't know too many people who don't love spanakopita. Greek or not, it's a delicious combination of spinach, onions, feta cheese and flaky, buttery, phyllo dough. I put my own spin on it […]
Dinner (But Most Importantly Dessert) at Lavo
I have been to Lavo before for drinks, but I have never had the opportunity to sit down for dinner. One such opportunity presented itself last week with the addition of two words to their menu: Samoa Zeppoles. The Girl Scout cookie-craze has hit Lavo, and they ran with […]
Happy Friday and Happy Easter!
If you have off from work today for Good Friday – I don't like you. That said, it's still Friday, it's still cold, and there is a pastel-colored holiday upon us. In the words of Meatloaf: 2 out of 3 ain't bad. I will be cooking basically this entire weekend with […]
Easter Cupcakes from Baked By Melissa
I have to promote these again because they're just too damn cute. And now they come in Easter colors. I'm so weak… Available for only a short time (Apr 22-24) are these adorable Easter cupcakes from Baked By Melissa. Vanilla cake with a sweet cotton candy crunch on top – […]
Spring Has Arrived At Vai Spuntino Bar
At least Spring has arrived SOMEWHERE, because it surely hasn't hit the rest of NYC yet. My dinner at Vai Spuntino Bar last week was full of fresh fish, bright herbs, and clean flavors. Chef Vincent Chirico does a wonderful job of incorporating this seasons ingredients into the menu, […]
Lunch at Ajisen Ramen
This isn't your flavor-packet, college dormroom ramen. This is the real deal. I've been on a ramen kick lately and I had to hit up the new Ajisen Ramen in Chelsea. A few of my coworkers and I hopped on over there for lunch and picked up the spicy […]
Disturbing Content Below: Shake Shack Nutritional Info
Happy Friday! Despite the fact that I'm battling massive allergy attacks, I'm glad the weather is FINALLY starting to turn around. As I was walking home last night, it really hit me when I saw the Van Leeuwen ice cream truck parked on Bedford Ave, then it made me think of […]
Lunch at Hill Country
What's up with my HC kick lately? Well I work a few blocks away from both of them, so the commute is easy. And um, it's delicious. Most people in NYC have been to Hill Country and know what it's all about: BBQ meat by the pound and sides heavy […]
