One of my go-to restaurants in Astoria is Bareburger. Now before you roll your eyes and think this is another Astoria review, Bareburger also just launched a location in Greenwich Village. Now as you can probably tell, Bareburger is a burger joint. The Astoria location is always packed, so best if you have a [...] When I moved to the Upper East Side, I knew I had to scout out a few staples: my new pizzeria, bagel shop, Thai restaurant and sushi restaurant. Those are my “must haves.” While it took a few tries for me to find my new Thai spot (posts on that journey to come), I [...] Last night my roommate and I headed to El Parador Cafe, which is right by our apartment on 34th between 1st and 2nd. El Parador is the oldest Mexican restaurant in NYC and in fact, my roommate’s parents dined there 35 years ago. We were starving after a day of moving, so we [...] Recently two of my favorite coworkers (actually, we’ve all since given our two weeks notice, so now they’re simply two of my favorite friends), decided to have a ladies-only dinner to catch up. Since two of the three (myself included) quit our jobs to go back school (hello poverty!), we let price dictate our [...] With Restaurant Week extended until Labor Day, a few of my friends and I decided to check out Michael Jordan’s Steakhouse for lunch on Sunday. As I’ve said before, I think a steakhouse is an incredible value for Restaurant Week, especially for lunch, simply because steak can be at least $30 or more, and [...] To kick off Restaurant Week, I headed to Park Ave Summer on Monday with a few of my girlfriends. I’ve raved about Park Ave Winter before and have claimed that it was one of my better Restaurant Week experiences. As a result, I was looking forward to trying their summer menu, since the menu [...] Yesterday, my friends Katharine, Yael and I decided it’d be the perfect day to visit several bars and drink Riesling as part of the Riesling Bar Crawl. Problem was, we forgot the World Cup was on, so every time we went to check out a bar, it was either crowded or closed, since it [...] Over two months ago now (yikes!), my mom took me out to La Boqueria in Soho for my birthday dinner. Choosing a birthday dinner spot can be stressful, but thankfully the bargain-hunter inside of me made it easy. I had a BlackBoardEats code that was going to expire that day and I simply could not [...] Guest Post and Photography by Katie Miervaldis, Red Headed Correspondent I have never found this statement more relevant than a recent Sunday when my two lady friends and I decided to venture across the Brooklyn Bridge towards two full scoops of paradise. The sunshine played a key role in our enjoyment of the day. [...] A few weeks back my former intern Elle told me about a new sushi restaurant that had opened in Murray Hill. As soon as the words BYOB were out of her mouth, I had plans with my roommate for Saturday night. My roommate Al and I headed over to Nana Sushi on a Saturday [...] |
