Ovenly NYC: The Best Baked Goods in NYC?
We've just tasted some of the best baked goods in NYC at Books of Wonder Bookstore, and speaking of amazing baked goods, consider the insanely delicious creations coming out of the kitchens at Ovenly. Ovenly NYC has been supplying area taverns (with bar snacks) and NYC coffee shops (with pastries) for about a year and a […]
Books of Wonder Kid’s Bookstore: Now With More Cookies! And Bacon!
Is Books of Wonder NYC's best children's book store? Possibly. Probably. Yes, ok: definitely. Because although it's been a bunch of years since we last brought our children to this pretty, airy Chelsea bookstore–it's both New York City's oldest and largest independent children's bookstore–as soon as we walked in the door last week nothing but […]
Fulton Fish Market Neighbor New Amsterdam Market Now Open for the Summer
The New Amsterdam Market, located right by the old Fulton Fish Market in the South Street Seaport area, reopened last Sunday for the season, which is good news indeed for all New Yorkers, but especially for downtown Glenwood residents (in both the Barclay Tower and Tribeca Bridge Tower), and especially ESPECIALLY for Glenwoodians fortunate enough […]
Perla NYC Restaurant: New West Village Restaurant from Gabe Stulman
Gabe Stulman is something of a genius when it comes to creating West Village restaurants that combine exciting, excellent food with pretty, convivial surroundings with welcoming, total-pro service. First at Joseph Leonard and across-the-street Jeffrey's Grocery NYC near Sheridan Square, then at Fedora on West 4th Street–and before those at nearby Little Owl with former partner […]
Barbarini Alimentari: Great Italian at South Street Seaport NYC
Downtown Glenwood residents–especially you, in the luxury highrise Manhattan apartments Barclay Tower and Liberty Plaza–may we please introduce you to your new favorite neighborhood restaurant: the simple, pretty, consistently terrific Barbarini. Of course, you might already be well acquainted with Claudio Marini (formerly of Caffe Linda) and Stefano Barbagallo's (out of Paprika) casual Italian spot […]
Smorgasburg Brooklyn Flea Food Market 2012
The next time you're making plans with friends to meet for brunch, here's an alternative suggestion to the usual 45-minute-wait to eat the same old eggs benedict/French toast: Smorgasburg Brooklyn, the huge, all-food-all-the-time market in Williamsburg, which launched its 2012 season last Saturday in its usual spot right by the water (and, incidentally, by the […]
Dinner and a Movie NYC Guide: IFC Center NYC Edition
Because we love nothing more than the classic dinner and a movie night on the town, here’s is part two of Glenwood’s Dinner and a Movie Guide, each installment featuring a movie theater we frequent and an array of personally recommended, close-by dining options, from quick-bite places to more serious NYC dining. Last week we […]
Dinner and a Movie NYC Guide: Landmark Sunshine Theater Edition
It’s the classic night out, going for dinner and a movie (or reverse it: a movie, then dinner). Even here in New York City, where there’s always 20 million things happening, it’s still one of our favorite date-night plans… or when the kids are willing to hang out with us on a Saturday night… or […]
Restaurants in Tribeca NYC: Edward’s NYC
It's not like downtown Glenwood luxury highrise Manhattan apartment residents –at Tribeca Bridge Tower, or Liberty Plaza, or Barclay Tower–are exactly hurting for good places to eat… There are a ton of great restaurants in Downtown NYC. Heck, even Battery Park City, long a culinary wasteland, has suddenly become fertile restaurant-opening territory, what with Danny […]
Italian Restaurant NYC: Sauce Restaurant Lower East Side
Who doesn't like Frank Prisinzano's restaurants, that mini-empire of East Village Italian restaurants that include Frank, Lil Frankies, and Supper? The answer is: no one. No one doesn't like these places. And with good reason: they're intimate, cheap, tasty, welcoming. Can't-miss date spots; perfect for fun friends-night-out. Now add Frank Prisinzano's newest to the list, […]
