I went back for a work lunch and tried the Vegetable Enchiladas with Mole Sauce ($15). Definitely better than anything I had eaten there before. The sauce was nutty and layered, and I liked the vegetables inside the enchiladas – spring onion, zucchini, lots of green. My only complaint was that I wish there had [...]

I finally went to Il Laboratorio del Gelato. We went around 5 pm on Saturday and they were out of many flavors. We tried the avocado (it has celebrity status apparently, but who really likes to eat Avocado ice cream?). It was fine, creamy and a beautiful pea-green, but not unlike the avocado ice-cream at [...]

I went to Chinese Mirch last Saturday with my cousins who were in town from Chicago. The concept of Indian-Chinese food in America was exciting, since its tastes vary so dramatically from regular Chinese food in America- food that to the Indian palate often seems to be overwhelming in sweetness and syrup. Indian-Chinese draws on [...]

After work on Friday, Susan, Allison and I went to Ceci-Cela Patisserie for some cake and coffee. It was kind of a miserable Friday… ice poop was pouring from the sky and hitting our faces and it was windy and unfriendly. Susan and Allison were going to see The Namesake and needed to kill some [...]

I’ve been eating out a lot! So there is this place near my job called Soho Park and they have the best onion rings I’ve had in a REALLY LONG TIME. And I love onion rings and usually order them wherever they are served because I cannot resist them. And they usually suck. But these [...]

We went to Brick Cafe for brunch this morning. It was a struggle to get out of bed… I was so sleepy (and I slept till 11:30!). But fortunately, Brick isn’t far…just a few blocks down from me at 33rd st and 31st avenue. I’ve passed it a few times and been tempted to check [...]

Last night, I went to Artisanal, a French cheese restaurant. Really nice inside, very classy, red walls, full of people and chatter. I went because I wanted fondue and I heard that in New York, Artisanal was the place to go. It was a really nice evening- we got wine at the bar while we [...]
