The Little Cheese Pub NYC, New in Chelsea
Granted, it wouldn't take much to convince us to dine somewhere that's being billed as a "cheese restaurant"… but throw in the care and attention of Chef Daniel Angerer, who also runs Chelsea's solid neighborhood spot Klee, and the place instantly jumps to the top of our list. The Little Cheese Pub in NYC is […]
The Little Cupcake Bakeshop in NYC Is a Surprise Winner
We greeted the opening last fall of The Little Cupcake Bakeshop in NYC with, we think, justifiable skepticism. Not that we don't love baked goodies of all sorts–trust us, we do–including the unfairly maligned cupcake. It's just that, with its cartoony logo, and silly-food offerings (Fruity Pebbles Treats! Cookie Dough Cupcakes! etc.), and false-nostalgia decor, […]
Finding the Best Burgers in NYC
We're not ones to bemoan the "burgerfication" of the New York City cuisine scene. There will always be plenty of superb high- and upper-middle-end restaurants in this town, and we will always enjoy dining in them. BUT we (and our wallets) also appreciate the now decade-long trend of talented chefs and well-conceived specialty joints serving […]
Zak Pelaccio’s Pop-Up Ham Restaurant: Fatty Johnson’s
We're huge Zak Pelaccio fans, whether he's laying out the funky Malaysian flavors at the Fatty Crab Restaurant (either location; they're both great), or serving us plates of smoky delights at the excellent Fatty 'Cue in Brooklyn, or throwing a tongue-taco party (also: other Mexican dishes) every night at Cabrito. The sad news: Pelaccio closed […]
Chef Marcus Samuelsson Opens Red Rooster in Harlem
Superstar Chef Marcus Samuelsson–the youngest ever to earn two three-star reviews from the New York Times, for his creations in the kitchen at Aquavit–has long wanted to open a first-class restaurant in his neighborhood up in Harlem. And, once Samuelsson announced last spring that the dream was becoming a reality in the form of Red […]
Porsena NYC: Sara Jenkins’s New Pasta Restaurant
Chef Sara Jenkins, of considerable East Village renown for her amazing sandwiches at tiny Porchetta, has opened a "real", multi-tabled pasta place near Cooper Square, Porsena NYC. So far, however–and despite serving one of the best plates of food we've had all year–there seems to be more growing pains than dining pleasures in her endeavors. […]
Mile End deli in Brooklyn, now serving dinner
Peter Pan Donuts–the best in NYC–now also at Brooklyn Farmacy
File under: fun and tasty Saturday family adventure. The Peter Pan Bakery in Greenpoint (on Manhattan Avenue; near the Nassau G-train stop) has been attracting donut lovers by the dozens (and dozens… and dozens) for a few years now, and especially after Tina Fey raved about them rather salaciously in Esquire. And this isn't empty […]
Rubirosa NYC
We had so long ago ceded Little Italy to the tourists that it seems almost counter-intuitive to head over to Mulberry Street to eat pasta and pizza and zeppole and the like. And yet, there we were, twice this past week, ordering up a storm from the old-school menu at Rubirosa NYC. Opened in early […]
Hung Ry Noodle Shop NYC
As we head into that big-bowls-of-steaming-meaty-noodle-soup time of year, our favorite discovery of the new fall restaurant season has to be Hung Ry, a lovely, almost shockingly soothing spot on what has become an ever-increasingly excellent though definitely frenetic dining scene on Bowery (think Peels, Hecho en Dumbo, DBGB, Pulino’s, etc.). Located on a quiet, […]
