This is a bit overdue, but I have to write about it because it was awesome. So deal with it. I attended the NYC Culinary Experience this past weekend, and it was so exciting to be there watching and taking cooking classes with top-caliber chefs. My first class was with […]

Bored of Bordeaux? Discover the Wines of South America
Alsace, Tuscany, Bordeaux, and Napa. No, those aren't the latest celebrity baby names. They are some of the most popular wine regions in the world. I love a good glass of Chianti, however, some of the best wines I've tasted come from none other than Argentina and Chile. Slightly under the radar and overlooked by […]
What’s Left To Do at the New York City Wine & Food Festival This Weekend
Still pissed that you missed out on the New York City Wine & Food Festival last year? And even MORE pissed that you couldn't get your lazy ass off the couch long enough to buy tickets this year? Well, if you act now, you can still get some tickets to […]
Tanuki Tavern Opens Tonight in Gansevoort
The Meatpacking District gets some fish with Tanuki Tavern, a Japanese sushi/tapas spot opening tonight in the Gansevoort Hotel. I didn't even know the Japanese had tapas, but apparently they do, and it is known in Japan as "Izakaya." Izakaya roughly translates to: "a Japanese drinking establishment which also serves food to accompany the drinks." What […]

Hill Country is Opening Fried Chicken Joint
Thank GOD. I think one of the few things NYC is really lacking in terms of comfort food is a true fried chicken restaurant. There's only so much KFC and Popeye's a person can eat before fatal indigestion sets in. Hill Country will be opening a rather large fried chicken joint […]
Barros Luco is Open – Time for Tasting!
After months of walking back and forth in front of this place like some stalker ex-girlfriend, the doors have finally opened for Barros Luco, the Chilean sandwich shop in midtown. It was 5:20 pm, and I was having a bad case of the Mondays. The one thing I was looking forward to was […]
Madison Square Park’s Autumn Market
If you haven't read my post about pumpkin picking and wine tasting in Long Island, then you are clearly not in my immediate family or one of my close friends. But it also means that you don't know how much I love farmer's markets, which is why I'm excited for […]
International Pickle Day is Back This Sunday!
Last weekend was the Vendy's, next weekend is the NYC Food & Wine Festival, and this weekend has two things going on: The New York Culinary Experience (sold out) and International Pickle Day. My calendar is busier than the Village on Halloween. Ok maybe not THAT busy. The LES BID […]
Stuffed Artisan Cannolis Opens Tomorrow!
Stuffed Artisan Cannolis opens tomorrow on the LES at 1 pm! To celebrate the grand opening, there will be a party complete with tastings from 7 – 10 pm. A shindig with super sized cannolis up for grabs?? I am running out of excuses for not trying them. Once they start offering […]
