As if you haven’t heard it a million times already, Happy New Year! No New Year resolutions for me this year. I decided resolutions are bullsh*t (c’mon, you all know it’s true), so without further ado, let’s talk food! MORE »

Not sure what took me so long to try L’Artusi, but I’m glad I finally did. David and I went two weekends ago, and everything was excellent; not just the food, but also the wine and the service. It was the holy dining trifecta. Need proof? Take a look. MORE »

Coleslaw and potato chips come on the side. MORE »

Korean tacos were the craze last year because of the Kogi truck in L.A., but if you’re looking for Korean-Mexican fusion in New York, don’t go looking for it at New York Hotdog & Coffee on Bleecker, the first American outpost of the fast food chain in Korea. The tacos there are more of a Korean person’s loose interpretation of Mexican food with Korean ingredients, but it’s still tasty, and a great spot if you’re babysitting or happen to be drunk. MORE »
