Who wouldn’t love to travel over to Greece and relax on their beautiful islands? Just to mingle with the locals, buy some of their Evil Eye jewelry pieces, and my personal favorite: devour their amazingly fresh and delicious dishes. But to make the trip over to Greece from Manhattan multiple times a year just to

Before you cross over the Williamsburg Bridge and lean right around the corner to approach the well-known Peter Luger restaurant, I highly suggest to not eat a thing at least three hours before. Unfortunately, I made that mistake by lunching on a white truffled sausage uptown a few hours prior. I also made a boo

And guess what? It’s here until this Sunday, so scootchie tootsie on over! Francois Pralus {owner and chef of Pralus}.

This year, I have lived by the words: expect the unexpected. So when my friend, Katie, emailed me last week asking if I was willing to take a trip “somewhere up the Hudson,” I thought… “why not?” I’m a very spontaneous and open for anything kind of girl, so I responded, “It’s on!” Little did

I recently read an article in Travel & Leisure referring to the Catskills as “the new Hamptons” with its stylish restaurants, boutiques, and galleries. Right in our NYC backyard, you can quickly escape from anyone and everyone to this secluded jewel of New York State. Around the time the hurricane passed through Manhattan, my parents

His precise mix of flavors and accuracy is seen on every plate presented whether it be from the fabulous Upper East Side restaurant, Daniel, all the way down to his hipster East Village spot, DBGB Kitchen &

I know, I know. You have heard countless reviews about how fabulous The Dutch is…why would you want to hear anymore? You don’t have to listen, but I’m just telling you that this hot spot is the place to be right now. Did I mention it’s almost Fashion Week? Catch my drift? Chef Andrew Carmellini

Hallejuah! After a weekend of no power in New Jersey this past weekend, Bonjour + Hola is back in action and Irene has officially blown away. Starting this gorgeous week off with one of my absolute favorite restaurants in the West Village seemed to be a perfect fit. I’ve mentioned Kingswood in a few posts in the

With their retail locations already settled into countries like Switzerland, Turkey, France, and the UK {oh, the list could go on!}, it is only suiting for the well-known, Laduree, to finally make it’s way into New York City. And guess what? We don’t have to wait any longer…Laduree officially open it’s doors

We’ve all heard of Momofuku in the city. How can you not? There’s four restaurants {Noodle Bar, Ssam Bar, Ko, and Ma Peche} that will satisfy any craving you may have. But, my favorite is to grab just a really delicious snack on the go. That’s why I fell in love with their Milk Bar!

Like anyone else who lives amongst the hustle and bustle of New York City, it is understandable as to why escaping for a few days to breath is essential. My recent escape was to East Hampton where I was spoiled to be around amazing friends, my favorite ice cream from Scoop du Jour, perfectly bloomed

There’s something intriguing about the Ace Hotel… Maybe it’s the dark, phantom-like lobby…or maybe it’s the pigs who have bombarded the dark Breslin walls to whom you glance in between bites of the juiciest burger…maybe it’s just the hipster crowd that frequently flocks there for their Stumptown Coffee fix? One will never know…but now, there’s
