One of my favorite places to eat in Astoria is 5 Napkin Burger. Now before you start thinking this is another Astoria post, there are locations in Hell’s Kitchen and the Upper West Side too! I’ve only eaten at the Astoria location, and I have to say, it is a great addition to the [...] This year, I decided to skip Restaurant Week. Yes, I know that for some people, that may be a sin. But for me, I figured I’d use the money I’d spend on dinner and go to Pearl Oyster Bar instead. My friend Tom and I had been trying tons of lobster rolls around the [...] As we’ve said time and time again, steakhouses are your best bet for a good Restaurant Week experience, and Rothmann’s Steakhouse and Grill was no exception. I went Monday night and had a great evening from start to finish. The decor was simple and sophisticated, similar to other big steakhouses, and they started us [...] Leftovers of my pesto pasta! A couple weeks back, my boyfriend and I were walking through Astoria, when I noticed a new little Italian restaurant that opened on the corner of 34th St and 31st Ave. The restaurant was cute and had an intimate atmosphere and once I read a review on Why [...] 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 [...] 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 [...] The day following All Jacked Up, my roommate and I thought we might be a bit sluggish, so we took the day off from work. With Restaurant Week going on, we figured we’d spend the afternoon taking in a nice lunch at a steakhouse, since steakhouses usually provide the best value during this week. [...] 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 [...] About two weeks ago, Caryn (thoughts in italics) and I were invited to try Le Perigord, a French restaurant in Midtown. While Le Perigord was a classy French establishment, I went in with the mindset that this is a place I’d take my parents (or have them take me) or go on an anniversary [...] |
