TabeTomo celebrates 5 years in the East Village

East Village Ramen restaurant TabeTomo will be celebrating 5 years this weekend with $5 Ramen bowls all day on Friday & a Anniversary Part starting at 11pm on Saturday.  Although I haven’t been there for some time, I am a big fan of their ramen broth. There’s no mention of which of their ramen will […]

Get Rewarded For Dining Out With Seated

Normally I just post restaurant reviews and news, but I’ve been using Seated for a few months now and I thought that I’d put up a post to let everyone else know about the app. The premise is pretty simple: You make a reservation to any of the participating restaurants through the app. Send a […]

Tim Ho Wan

I’ve been excited to try this Dim Sum spot, labelled as the ‘cheapest Michelin-starred restaurant in the world‘, since it opened in December 2016.  Horror stories of insanely long lines kept me away till now.  I stopped by around 2pm on a Tuesday & was told that the wait would be 30 minutes.  You can […]

A look Inside Pardon My French

Pardon My French, formerly Casimir, has opened on Avenue B with a completely renovated bar in the previously under-used side room.  No word on the menu as yet, but it seems that that have taken a turn away from traditional French fare (see this NYPost article), as well as a revamped cocktail list.  I’ll admit […]

Free Meat Pie From Tuck Shop

The folks over at Tuck Shop are giving away a free savory pie (one per person) until March 2nd.  Go to their East Village shop, click on this link with your mobile device and show your server.  It’s a fairly easy process to get your hands on a delicious pie (I’m  big fan of the traditional […]

Jeepney Joins The Bottomless Brunch Crowd

Filipino gastropub, Jeepney, has introduced a bottomless brunch on weekends 2 hours of booze and an entree for $29.  I’m  big fan of Jeepney (as well as it’s sister restaurant, Maharlika) and I do love to get drunk, so this is a nice addition. It seems like a lot of East Village restaurants are offering […]

Yuji Ramen (Closed)

A friend had been telling me about this place for a while —  I rarely shop at Whole Foods & had never been to the food court upstairs, but it seems that I have been missing out on a whole lot. Started as a pop-up in the back of a brooklyn bar, Yuji has been […]
