As a contributor to hyperlocal news site Nearsay, I’m invited to check out different events that are part of the site’s concierge program where they reward contributors. When I saw an opportunity to dine at Nanoosh, a Mediterranean establishment in the East Village, I decided to take advantage of this offer.
I headed over [...]

Caryn and I enjoy prosecco, so when we found this deal, we knew it’d be up our alley too. Tonight, four different bars are offering a complimentary glass of sparkling white wine, courtesyof Asti D.O.C.G. Swing by Beauty Bar or Galway Hooker (Village location) from 6-9 pm for your free glass. If that’s too early, [...]

Last week we told you about today’s $1 Smoothie event going on at Red Mango in Union Square. If you can’t make it to Union Square today, you may like this other deal that Red Mango has going on. Red Mango has launched a new flavor, key lime pie, and to celebrate, they have [...]

So remember last week when we told you about free lunch and then it got cancelled? Well that lunch was rescheduled for today. Head to the new Nanoosh location at 111 University Place. Today is the hummus bar’s grand opening, and as a result, they will be offering a free main course and [...]

I absolutely love falafels. If you are a fan of this chickpea treat too, check out the Falafel Crawl, organized by NYC Food Crawl. On Wednesday, January 20, at 6:30 p.m., attendees will meet at the southern steps of Union Square, across from Whole Foods. If you arrive on time, you’ll receive a map [...]

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 [...]

Last week I tried a Thai place, Kati, near Stuy Town with an old co-worker (no, not Laura). We decided on Kati because I previously bought a $25 Restaurant.com certificate for it at 80% off (totaling $2), and a financial incentive never hurts.
The place is small and pretty brightly lit, so it’s not an [...]
