You may have noticed the lack of posts recently, but I’ve been in the process from moving from the WordPress.com platform, to the self-hosted WordPress.org. This will allow me to use Javascript, add videos & use other, more robust features. All in all, this should improve the experience here at East Village Eats. Hopefully I’ll […]
Casa Adela Shuttered by DOH
The Department of Health has continued their ‘onslaught’ of the East Village & shuttered Pueroto Rican mainstay Casa Adela (66 Avenue C near 5th Street) two days ago. As the sign indicates, the fridges were not at the proper temperature. Hopefully they’ll sort this out soon & return to do what they do best; serving […]
Marco Polo Cafe (Closed)
After the folks @SaintDelivery mentioned the amazing $1 Sliders at Marco Polo Cafe (102 St. Marks, near 1st Avenue) I decided that I had to try them out for myself. Needless to say, I’ve been there 3 times in the last 4 days; AMAZING. Named after the famed Venetian explorer that opened up the Chinese […]

6th Street Kitchen (507 East 6th Street between Avenue A & B) has unvieled their fall dinner menu (click picture to enlarge) & it’s looking pretty damn tasty!

Arcane Turns 2!
Arcane, the French-Caribbean restaurant, is celebrating it’s second birthday today. I just passed by & it looked pretty packed, with party-goers sharing the sidewalk with people drinking at Zum Schneider next door. I did review the brunch there back in May (not very favorably), but I have as yet to have dinner. Anyway; Happy Birthday […]

Back Forty
I reviewed the brunch at Back Forty (190 Avenue B @ 12th Street) back in March, so I decided that it was time for me to get some dinner there. I went with my Mom midweek, so we luckily didn’t have to wait for a table even though the place was busy. We got the […]
Esperanto Revisited
So after my last review of brunch at Esperanto (review here) where I complained about the Huevos Loisada, I decided to post about the great brunch food there, namely the cheeseburger. It was my birthday (Yay Me!) so I went with my mother & brother & got a pretty choice seat by the entrance.
More Content Coming Soon
With NYU students coming back to the hood in massive throngs (have you seen Third Avenue? It’s a gigantic clusterfuck! No, really…), I’ve decided to start reviewing bars as well. What goes better with food than booze? If there’s anything I know better than where to eat, it’s where to get hammered. Obviously this is […]
Petite Abeille
The family (well 4 out of 6 of us) got together last night for dinner at a Belgian restaurant that we pass frequently. Petite Abeille (401 East 20th Street) is a pretty bustling restaurant with plenty of outdoor seating right on the corner of 1st Avenue. It being Belgian, we were immediately thinking Moules Frite, […]
