They say New York is the city that never sleeps. You can find some New Yorkers out dancing until the wee hours of the morning. And now you can find quite a few New Yorkers dancing before they go to work. I was invited to New York City’s Daybreaker Week. Daybreaker is an event created by General Assembly co-founder Matthew Brimer and Super […]

Having dined at Le Village not too long ago, where my taste buds had a dance party from all of the wonderful flavors, it’s safe to say that I was happily looking forward to checking out another restaurant helmed by Chef Didier Pawlicki. La Siréne, another classic French restaurant, is located in SoHo, and is a charming, intimate space with […]

Recently voted #20 out of Grub Street’s 50 Most Important Burgers in New York, we had the fabulous opportunity to visit Church Street Tavern, a classic Tribeca pub with a chic, opulent flair to sample the famous meat snack. Dark and cozy but simultaneously welcoming, Church Street is the kind of place we can see ourselves running to in the […]

Recently having had to cancel a much-anticipated trip to the New Orleans Jazz Festival, I was feeling a little bummed out. I had just envisioned myself, a nice bourbon on the rocks in hand, eyes closed, nodding along to the sweet sounds of the saxophones and trumpets, as the music flowed into my ears and through my brain, right down […]

Stunning acrobatics, a feast fit for a king and an air of mystery surround the hype around New York City’s interactive dinner theater Queen of the Night. Well worth the hefty price tag akin to some of the hottest Broadway shows, Queen of the Night serves up hours of drinks, fun, mystery, intrigue…and even a little seduction. Your evening begins […]

  Whether you are looking for a vibrant outdoor food spot to catch the rays of summer or a place to hole up and pretend you’re in a faraway land during the seemingly never-ending rainstorms, Lolo’s Seafood Shack delivers on both counts. Co-owner Leticia (Skai) Young-Mohan and Chef Raymond Mohan sought to mesh a seaside “lolo,” or outdoor Caribbean restaurant, […]

I was running late for dinner. Not by much, but the M train had other ideas. I arrived at Angus Club Steakhouse, which recently celebrated its one-year anniversary, a bit flustered and perturbed from underground delays knowing that my dinning companion was 20 minutes into a Buillet Old Fashioned at the bar. The bartender had excellent suggestions, enthusiastic recommendations for us […]

Though it has been quite the treat for us downtown kids to be courted and catered to by the food gliteratti, it is also lovely to re-visit neighborhoods one may not set out to visit very often.  One of the most exciting things about living in New York City is the opportunity for re-discovery, in and outside of your comfort […]

May is like January, a gate into so much of the year. Summer is about to start. The big blockbusters start coming out in the movie theaters and we willingly pay around $18 a ticket. Pools, parks, restaurants are about to start blossoming out of nowhere. Tourists start flooding our streets on a more regular basis, being somehow more lost than […]
