Celebrate Spring At Gotham West Market

Strolling up and down the city streets is one of my favorite things to do on my day off…or any day I’m not at the office! So when I stumbled across a place my friends have been raving about on the west side of town called Gotham West Market, it was a must to prance [...]

Italia In Each Bite

I’m always on the hunt to find new boutique-like restaurants filled with devoted locals + the owner present sharing the love of what their place is all about, and how it’s different from other competitors. So when I heard about a new addition to the up + coming 8th street called La Panineria, it was [...]

A Tea Taste of Springtime

After ending up in the boondocks of Brooklyn, catching the first subway back to the city and looking for the perfect place to escape the freezing wind blowing in my face, I looked no further than The Crosby Hotel.

Oh, yes. Why? You make ask? Well hunny, Ladurée has brought a new type of European [...]

UES Has Turned To The East Pole

Although I absolutely love eating all things healthy via Angela’s Kitchen, Dirt Candy and Candle 79, especially to get all “clean” before the big VDAY, there’s a new spot I’ve been frequently seen at since its recent opening just a few months ago. And honestly, I can’t believe I am just now posting about my [...]

Tweet Over Like An Early Bird

After moving up by Central Park, it’s pretty rare that this señorita will make the trek below West Houston Street just for a dinner. But after reading and hearing raving reviews on how fabulous {and an absolute must!} it was to try Charlie Bird, I thought “why not tweet tweet on down and decide for [...]

Mannerly Monday: Housing A Staff Full Of Givers

Since it’s Mannerly Monday and all, I couldn’t think of a better way to start off a plethora of gift guide posts than one about the gift of giving in itself. This past weekend while I was visiting my gracious family in Nashville, I had put at the top of my to-do list to hit [...]

A Spicy Kick To Nix The Cold Bit

With the cold air brewing on in, the last drink I want to be sippin’ post work is one that makes me feel, well, even colder! But, after getting to know David, a fabulous bartender over at ABC Kitchen, I totally found my new go-to {not to mention healthy!} cocktail to sip right on through [...]

Tie The Knot With Ron Ben-Israel Cakes

Some brides splurge on their dress. Some brides splurge on their venue. Others, splurge on their cake! And I’m all over that sugary detail. Hola.
