2nd Annual Taste Of 7th St. Recap
I love my city, New York. I love my neighborhood, the East Village. And even more & more I love my street, 7th Street (before there’s an uproar, I do realize that some of the restaurants are not on 7th Street). I reported earlier about the 2011 Taste of 7th St. I went this year […]

Dessert at Vandaag (Closed)
I was searching Googling for a place to bring a few family members for a late coffee & dessert around New Year’s & Vandaag ended up at the top of the pile. I’ve been there for lunch & dinner before, but I was worried that they’d be packed. It was still busy but luckily for […]

Butter Lane Cupcakes
Wanting something sweet after a recent meal with my brother & sister, we went to Butter Lane (123 East 7th Street between Avenue A & 1st Ave.) It’s a small space with a few seats indoors & the service area & bakery in the back. It was a warm day so we decided to order […]
Paradiso
After spending a lot of time going to 9th Street Espresso for my daily coffee, I’ve decided that Paradiso (105 Avenue B at 7th Street) is a much better option. Open since Feb. 2009 it’s a small space (formerly Bang-On) with a few seats & tables, but it is generally never crowded & offers free […]
De Robertis Pasticceria
I had a chance to stop by De Robertis Pasticceria (176 1st Avenue @ 11th Street), a neighborhood staple since 1904, to pick up some dessert for a family dinner. I’ve passed by this place, with it’s bright signage, hundreds of times but never gone in. The place has an old school feel & is […]
