Sorry mom and dad, but I’m willing to bet that after tonight’s New Year’s festivities, I will be severely hungover most of tomorrow. And while it may not cure my hangover, I really enjoy laying on the couch, holding my stomach with aspirin in hand, screaming that “I’m not 100%” and watching a movie.

I went to Tree earlier in December for a nicer night out with a good friend from out of town. We decided on Tree because it was part of my beloved Diner’s Deck which was about to run out at the end of the month. Although the description sounded more romantic than platonic, we were [...]

The one thing I miss about college is free wings and half priced drinks at Noah’s on Friday nights. Luckily, our friend Jason at NYC Daily Deals informed us about some great wing specials that take place in the city. While the wings aren’t free, they certainly come close.

Working during the holiday weeks certainly has some advantages. Not only is the workload a little bit lighter, but it’s one of the few times where you can actually take a full hour lunch.
Wondering where to go on the cheap? Check out Havana Central, a Cuban restaurant which has locations in Union Square, [...]

I am probably the stingiest person I’ve ever met. I’m also probably the hungriest. I could eat 24 hours a day and I rarely turn down an offer to grab dinner. In order to avoid shelling out $20 for these dinners, I’m constantly [...]

After attending Cook. Eat. Drink. Live last month, I added a trip to Spanish Harlem to eat at Ricardo Steak House to my to-do list. So when my roommate Al and I decided that we’d grab a steak dinner as our Christmas gift to each other, we decided to head uptown.
Now, before we [...]

Looking for a free lunch on Saturday? Check out Macbar down in Soho. Starting at noon on Saturday (12/19), the first 300 people will receive a free small mac & cheese. The flavors include the classic, margarita mac and cheeseburger mac. Thanks to Sarah for alerting us to this deal!

Editor’s note: We just learned from one of our readers, Susan, that this museum actually offers suggested admission (shows you how much we get to BK sometimes). So, basically, that means you pay what you want, as long as you don’t feel guilty about it. Looking for other museums with suggested admission? Check [...]
