Grand Central Oyster Bar
There are only a handful of restaurants that bring out emotion like the Grand Central Oyster Bar. Maybe it’s the storied history, the beautiful vaulted ceilings of days gone by or the promise of delicious seafood. I’d been wanting to go here for quite some time & it didn’t take much of an effort to […]
Live Bait
Southern & Cajun cuisine ranks pretty high on my favorite food to eat, so I’ve been slowly trying to cross of as many restaurants in the city as I can. This week it was Live Bait’s turn. I’ve passed by the place a bunch of times, but never eaten there. While researching places for lunch, […]

Nam Son Vietnamese Restaurant
I don’t eat in Chinatown very often & when I do, it’s normally at a Chinese restaurant, but I’ve passed Nam Son so many times while shopping around Grand Street that I decided to finally give it a go. I’ve been to Vietnam once & admit that I don’t know much about the cuisine. I’ve […]
Kasadela
Honestly, when I think of I traditional Japanese food in the East Village, Avenue C doesn’t immediately come to mind. I’d been a regular at the restaurant years ago & pretty much forgotten about it until last week. Luckily the food is still as good as I remember. Nestled in an area where you’re more likely to […]
Wok+Wine
I had the extreme pleasure of bringing my Mom to a Foodspotting and Wok+Wine event held at the offices of Luminary Labs in Tribeca. I didn’t know anything about W+W, but I’m an avid Foodspotting user, so I wasn’t going to pass this opportunity up. After doing a bit of research online, I found out that W+W […]
Lunch At The Brindle Room
Lunch can be somewhat boring in the East Village since there aren’t really that many good places that open & serve food before 4pm (I often find myself returning to the same places over & over again) which is why I was excited that The Brindle Room is open for lunch. I had recently watched […]

Spina
I’ve been watching this space for quite some time so I finally decided to bite the bullet & went for dinner on my Dad’s birthday. It was a Wednesday at 8:30 and the place was already packed. We got a seat in the corner by the window & started studying the menu. It’s not particularly […]
