Oh where to eat where to eat? I've got 3 hungries just looking at all the places I want to go while in NYC! I suppose I will have plenty of time to explore once I move there, so maybe this weekend will be an opportunity to visit some "old haunts" and some I've been curious about for a while. On my list so far...
Breakfast/Brunch at Balthazar. I still dream about the Frisee Aux Lardons with the runny egg on top. Sadly it's not available on the breakfast or brunch menus, but at this point I'll settle for anything, like the basket of pastries or duck confit. Oh wait, we're talking breakfast here. Maybe we'll have to do lunch. :) Yummmm, the world needs more places like Balthazar.
Spanish wine and snacks at Bar Jamon. I have some good memories here that I don't necessarily intend to recreate, I just want some good Spanish wines and ham ham ham! It's such a cozy place to hang out with your lover. Last time I was there, they were playing Arcade Fire too. Can't go wrong with that.
Tapas at Pipa in ABC Carpet & Home. I remember this place being good, but can probably skip it this time around. We'll see...too many others to choose from!
Italian at Lupa Osteria Romana. I've never been to a Batali restaurant despite it being on my list everytime I go to NYC. This one is actually somewhat affordable and still gets decent reviews so a definite maybe.
Nook in Hell's Kitchen. Haven't been here, but I've read it's inexpensive, tiny/cozy/romantic, and BYOB. I have really really high hopes for Nook.
Casellula Wine & Cheese for wine, cheese, and other snacks. Haven't been here either but very excited for this one!
Momofuku Ssam Bar for superdeliciousness that defies definition and a shout out to a UT alum. I think B will like this place even if it looks all trendster and chichi.
Okay that's a good start I think. I'll keep adding to the list as I come across restos I want to try!
