If you’re like me, you’re a fan of wine but not quite educated on the topic yet. That’s why I love wine tastings and courses. This Saturday (if you’re not at Hoboken’s St. Patrick’s Day) you can take a Wines of Argentina and Chile course at Vero Midtown or Uptown for $65, with proceeds going [...]

Earlier this week, Laura (thoughts in italics) and I were lucky enough to visit West 3rd Common (full disclosure: we were invited to dine there. We are ethical bloggers!).

Like day drinking? So do we. That’s why we’re eagerly anticipating this year’s St. Patrick’s Day Pub Crawl taking place Saturday, March 13th. We’ve done the Cinco de Mayo pub crawl in the past and last year’s St. Patrick’s Day pub crawl, and trust me, they never disappoint.
Cheap drinking? Check
Drunk by 1 pm? [...]

After much deliberation, Laura, Doug, McKenna and I headed over to Andreas’ in Gramercy for dinner and a few drinks last night. I had been there once before with my mom for brunch and I was pleased with the delicious bread basket served and my chicken Caesar salad, so I was happy to try it again [...]

We’ve written about various events around town for singles during this Valentine’s Day weekend, so it’s only fitting that we end the week with a few more ideas.

On Sunday starting at noon, there will be a singles 5K, called Love Cubed, along the Hudson River. Following the run, there will be an open bar, [...]
