"Where is the Fabulous Foodie going tonight?" "Hope you do something indulgent!" These are just some of the phrases I heard regarding my birthday plans yesterday; everyone assumed I would be going somewhere fancypants. Now don't get me wrong, I love a nice petit filet and tarte tatin as much as […]

Monday Smorgasbord – April 11th
This week in food looks like…MY BIRTHDAY! Ok, I don't get the whole week, but I do get today. What does this particular foodie have in store for her birthday dinner?? David Burke? Le Bernardin? I guess you'll just have to stay tuned for that one tomorrow. In the meantime.. […]
Happy Friday From The Little Cheese Pub
It's lazy time! Check out some pics from my dinner at The Little Cheese Pub – bringing barnyard-chic to Chelsea. If you can OD on cheese and wine and NOT get sick, this is something you definitely should check out. The lactose intolerant may want to stay away; practically everything […]
Loreley
My first taste of Loreley was actually at the Get Real NY Craft Beer & Food Festival, but it had been on my list for a while for a few reasons: it's just a short walk from my apt, it's a beer garden (these are popular in the Burg), and […]
Biscuits, Butter and More at Hill Country Chicken
Lots of "good things in the middle" for Wednesday! A little taste of Hill Country Chicken followed by Girl Scout Cookies?! Damn. Straight. Yesterday, my cube-mate friend Gil and I put aside some time on our work calendars to go for lunch at Hill Country Chicken and then go […]
Girl Scout Cookies in Chelsea Until May 5th!

Dinner at Mr. Robata
How long do you think it will be before I make a Styx reference? I give it…a few more sentences. I visited Mr. Robata last Friday night for dinner with my friend (and fellow half-Greek) Alex, and we nearly closed the place down because we had such a good time. […]
Monday Smorgasbord – April 4th
Mondays are so depressing…but knowing that chocolate and booze are on the way makes it a little better… Open Vai Spuntino Bar: New spot in Soho that serves up appetizers that are "meant for sharing". The menu consists of many different categories such as "Crudo" (Arctic char), "Lightly Cooked" […]
Baked By Melissa’s Birthday Cupcake
Well well. Happy Birthday to ME. I don't know who told the fine folks at Baked By Melissa, but April just happens to be my birthday month, and they are helping me celebrate with their Birthday Cupcake, which just so happens to be the Mini of the Month. I feel […]
