Emporio’s New Years Eve 2010 Prix Fixe Menu: Felice Anno Nuovo!
New Years Eve in NYC: the cause of 67% of all migraine cases and stress-related illnesses in the city. Ok, perhaps I made up those numbers, but it is one of those nights that makes my head spin. So many choices, so many different people to please – why can't […]
Peanut Butter & Co.’s Sandwich of the Week and Holiday Coupons
One of my great loves besides chocolate is peanut butter, and more specifically, Peanut Butter & Co. in the West Village. I was just browsing around their site yesterday when I saw that they have a new "Sandwich of the Week" and it sounds scrumptious: Honey 'n' Nut Crunch: The […]
Chocolate Pinkberry: Pudding or Frozen Yogurt?
Thanks to my lack of consciousness for most of the past week, I completely spaced and forgot to share my thoughts on the new Pinkberry Chocolate. So here it is in a nutshell: really good, but doesn't taste like frozen yogurt..or Pinkberry for that matter. The thing I love about […]
Dominos Feeds All of Your Needs…Really
Sorry for the lack of posts recently – I had surgery last week and it took me literally 5 hours to write that short post about my Thanksgiving and frankly I don't remember what I wrote. Thanks Vicodin and Valium. Anyway – since I'm laid up in bed and have […]

A Trip to Turkey Via Sahara’s
Rarely do I stumble upon a place in the city (and in Kips Bay, no less) that offers a meal that is delicious from beginning to end, but that's what this place does. Sahara's, a turkish/middle-eastern restaurant located just a few blocks from the Kips Bay movie theater and NYU […]
Sweet and Savory Dinner at OBAO
As posted previously, I may not have gotten to OBAO for lunch, but I certainly made my way over there for dinner. Turns out they don't take reservations, but it really wasn't packed at all. There were more orders being placed for delivery, from what I could tell. Either way, […]
