NY and Travel Food, Wine and Restaurants. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. It's fine but go easy.The idea is to make things salty and dry so you'll order more and more drinks. Easy on the pasta when doing the salad bar, you don't want to fill up. From the side dishes, only order the vinaigrette sauce to put on the steaks. The polenta fries and fried bananas are not worth it, actually almost everything on the side dishes is dry. No filet mignon, too salty and the meat is dry. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

NY and Travel Food, Wine and Restaurants. Thursday, June 5, 2014. L'Arpege Paris: Exhausting indulgence. Other dishes use the seasonal ingredients grown at the chef/owner to create delicious combinations of flavors (rhubarb and asparagus season? Hope you like rhubarb and asparagus). Just an incredible lunch afternoon. Another criticism, and it may just be me, but there was very little protein in the dishes; one small medallion of monkfish, two small nibbles of sweetbreads, one small piece of cheese. ...

NY and Travel Food, Wine and Restaurants. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. Annisa New York City: good but no fireworks. First the good parts: service was excellent, the setting comfortable, the whole atmosphere very welcoming. The wines by the glass were similar to the dishes, monolithic and lacking in complexity. Pinot Meunier? The cheese course was good but at $21 for seven small slices, not a grand bargain. The yogurt panna cotta again had an appealing tartness but its flavors were unbalanced. La Mangeoire Ne...

NY and Travel Food, Wine and Restaurants. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. The Modern New York City: Best meal in New York City for years. Could rival Per Se where we ate a few years ago, or Blue Hill at Stone Barns last year. Absolutely magnificent. Imaginative and appetizing trio of amuses. Every dish looked gorgeous on the plate, complex with multiple layers of flavor, never enough to make one feel full and just big enough to satisfy. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

NY and Travel Food, Wine and Restaurants. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. Gramercy Tavern New York City: Disappointing. So this is a great restaurant? For the price I expect:. A more imaginative amuse - we were given one small gougere (cheese puff)! A normal sized portion - I am not asking for huge Olive Garden style portions, but the fish dish we got had a fish the size of a crudo appetizer, one small fingerling potato (cut in 2) and some leeks and celery. Pathetic. The wine service was good. Back to Berlin: M...

NY and Travel Food, Wine and Restaurants. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. La Mangeoire New York City: Decent, but lower your expectations. One would go to La Mangeoire with high expectations considering the place is Christian Delouvrier's. Mr Delouvrier used to be in charge of Lespinasse, has once received a four star review from the NY Times and has written a terrific cookbook (which one should own if only for the risotto recipe).

NY and Travel Food, Wine and Restaurants. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. Babbo New York City; Beware, you are about to be scammed! It's difficult to talk about the experience at Babbo without feeling like a dope. I fell for some of the oldest tricks in the book; first - a smiling staff who speak with a bad accent pushing mediocre overpriced dishes, like strawberries with a 25 year old balsamic vinegar for $20 (are you kidding me? The food now; ok, it's good. But. Would i ever go again? Churrascaria Plataforma&...

NY and Travel Food, Wine and Restaurants. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. Tribeca Grill New York City: Dependable and good. Six of us and the place is as nice as ever. Excellent service, including excellent wine service with a very helpful and friendly sommelier. Imaginative and very tasty appetizers and entrees, nice selection of desserts, Cheese course a little pedestrian (Epoisse? Feels like the nineties) and lacks imagination.
