Gelato. There’s a new player in town. Welcome A.B. Biagi and his incredible gelato to NYC’s Nolita neighborhood. I was lucky enough to travel to Italy with my family right after graduating from undergrad. Sorrento. Rome. Florence. Venice. Some little towns in between. We saw it all. And it was all phenomenal. I was much…
Sugar Sweet Sunshine, Puddin’, and PopBar
Three places to get some seriously delicious sweet treats in NYC. Cupcakes, pudding, and gelato on a stick. What else could a guy want? I have a tremendous sweet tooth, as my gut can surely attest. The good news is that my waistline is slowly waning. The bad news is that trying to eat healthier…
Lower East Side’s Taquitoria
Run by three Restaurant Marc Forgione alums, this Lower East Side eatery serves up amazing taquitos filled with top-notch, high quality ingredients. Can I tell you about one of my favorite new spots in the Lower East Side. It’s a gem. Raise your hand if you’ve heard of Iron Chef Marc Forgione? Raise your hand…
Ivan Ramen Slurp Shop at Gotham West Market
One of the most anticipated openings of the year, Ivan Orkin’s Ramen Slurp Shop in the new Gotham West Market delivers big on creativity and flavor. Ramen is to Japan like pizza is to New York. Iconic food. New Yorkers are highly critical of their pizza, just as the Japanese are to their ramen. Would…
Clinton St. Baking Company, City Bakery, and The Donut Pub
Three of NYC’s classic and extremely popular places to grab a sweet treat, including some of the best pancakes, cookies, hot chocolate, and donuts in the city. Sometimes I’m really excited to write a post intro. It comes naturally. I have something specific to share. A story. An anecdote. A memory. Today, I’ve got nothing….
Motorino Pizzeria, Tacos Morelos, Japadog, The Nugget Spot, and Dos Toros
A photo review of five popular East Village restaurants in New York City, including authentic wood-fired pizza at Motorino Pizzeria, tacos at Dos Toros and Tacos Morelos, a plethera of nuggets at The Nugget Spot, and eccentric Japanese-inspired hot dogs at Japadog. Having a week and a half off from work is a beautiful thing….
All Biscuits All Day at Empire Biscuit
In a country where more and bigger is often celebrated (have you seen the menu at The Cheesecake Factory lately), I’m totally down with micro-focused restaurants. Do one product…really well. Forget the 22-page menu and just focus on perfecting that one thing. Become known for that one morsel of goodness. Become legendary at your micro-focused craft. Empire…
Black Label Burger at Minetta Tavern
A look at one of the greatest burgers available in all of Manhattan. The one, the only, $28 Black Label Burger at Greenwich Village’s Minetta Tavern. If you are into the whole NYC dining scene at all, this is nothing new or revolutionary. People have been raving about the Black Label Burger at Greenwich Village’s…
First Look: Iron Chef Morimoto’s Bisutoro
A first look at the food and atmosphere at Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto’s new TriBeCa restaurant, Bisutoro. I miss my wife. We kind of work opposite schedules as of late. My week is full of after-school concerts and meetings, teaching private lessons during the evening, and spending a couple nights at the church for a…
Grand Tasting and Culinary Demonstrations at the NYCWFF
The people on over at the New York City Wine and Food Festival were nice enough to grant Shared Appetite (i.e. me) access to their annual signature event, the Grand Tasting and Culinary Demonstrations. Big thanks to you, NYCWFF. As you already know, Asheley and I are big fans of the festival. We go every year…
