Restaurant Reviews

Now that I am completely overwhelmed with so many great places I've been to eat, too many to review all at once, I have decided to start anew. I will instead be posting on a weekly (bi- tri-... ?) basis and reviewing places I have been, meals I have eaten, booze I drank. This usually will include a Friday night dinner, Saturday brunch and dinner, Sunday brunch and dinner. Yes, I eat out too much. And please, feel free to bear with me as I eat my way through all of Manhattan (while trying not to look like I am doing so)...

The Ratings

Highly Recommended: I would break my try-not-to-go-to-the-same-restaurant-twice rule for this place any day and time.

Recommended: I would send my best friends or family and they would enjoy it and be impressed and likely go back myself

Try it: Not for everyone, not my favorite, but definitely worth a shot if you’re in the neighborhood

For Serious?: I feel as though I wasted my money and likely calories on this experience

The people

The girls: My friends from college (we are loud and there are many of us) who covet round tables

My parents: John and Joanie. John is a veritable cook and Joanie is a picky eater

Michael: My boyfriend who puts up with my arguably unhealthy obsession with restaurant hopping

Martha: John and Joanie’s friend from NYC back in the day. Like my othermother, a true foodie.

Other friends: Feel free to request to have your name added, otherwise you shall remain anonymous. Especially if the restaurant was your suggestion and it was bad.
