Sake Bar Satsko
I’m really surprised it’s taken me so long to write a review of Sake Bar Satsko (202 East 7th Street between Ave. B & C), particularly because I live across the street & seem to spend a lot of time eating & drinking there. It’s a tiny sliver of a place & it took me […]
Republic
I recently went to Republic with my Mom for an early dinner. I haven’t been there in a while, so I was really looking forward to the meal. It was pretty empty, so we were seated immediately. Normally I order the curried duck noodles (which are really tasty), but this time I decided to opt for […]
Zaitzeff
I had some coupons from InBundles so I took my parents to Zaitzeff (18 Avenue B between 2nd & 3rd streets). I had been there before & tried the BLT, but this was my first time checking out the burgers. It being a rainy Monday, the place really wasn’t busy. I opted for the Quarter […]
Pio Pio
I love chicken as much (if not more) than the next guy so I jumped at the chance for a free (belated birthday) meal at Pio Pio (210 East 34th Street between 2nd & 3rd). Pio Pio is a chain of Peruvian restaurants that do one thing; pollos a la brasa (rotisserie chicken) & boy […]
6th Street Kitchen offering up lunch
Good news foodies, 6th Street Kitchen (507 East 6th Street between Avenues A & B) & their new chef Greg Torrech will be offering up lunch starting August 23rd. I’ve been here for dinner before, so I’m excited about a new lunch option in the ‘hood. Check ’em out: Lunch Menu & Summer Menu
Introducing The Hopsicle
This was just too choice to ignore. Diable Royale Este (167 Avenue A @ 11th Street) will begin serving up beer popsicles! Take a can of Tecate, add simple syrup, lime & a wooden stick then freeze for 4 days. Your bartender will cut the can in half with a serrated knife. BINGO, instant Hopsicle, […]
Ruby’s Bar & Grill
It took me about 22 years of living in NYC to finally make it out to Coney Island & when I did, I headed straight for Ruby’s (1213 Riegelmann Boardwalk). This place takes ‘Dive Bar’ to a whole new level & throws in a side of Coney Island Boardwalk & sea views. Mismatched furniture, a […]

Barbounia
This post is a few weeks late, but I’ll try to remember the meal as accurately as possible. Back in Early June, we took my Dad to dinner at Barbounia (250 Park Avenue South at 20th Street) for his birthday. I’d never been there before, but my brother knows one of the partners, Alon and […]
