I apologize, but you’re going to gain one hundred pounds just reading this entry. To justify myself, this was the only meal I went out for this past weekend. So I might as well make it count, right? 5 Napkin Burger has for some reason been on my list of restaurants to try for awhile. [...]

Yeah yeah, so I’ve talked about desserts at Blue Smoke before… but that was banana cream pie! This is different! So… Kelly and I went to dinner with D at Blue Smoke last night. Of course we had lots meat to begin with and I’m realizing I actually don’t eat a lot of red meat [...]

Well hello there, cake balls. Yep, that’s what they are. White cake in chocolate with sprinkles.

Hello, beautiful. This is a drink at the beautiful Union Square Cafe. When Robert was here, he wanted to go to as many Danny Meyer restaurants as possible, so I tagged along for some of them. Now don’t be fooled by the girlie colors of this drink because this beverage is not for the faint [...]

So when I was at Red Hook Lobster Pound with Kelly the other night, we did not get their homemade whoopie pies (Kelly goes, “They’re HUGE!”). Instead, we went on a little adventure afterward to downtown Brooklyn. I’ve walked around downtown Brooklyn… never. I always knew of its existence and that there was a Trader [...]

This is my friend Leah who I’ve known since we were little kids in church and we went to school together from fifth grade on and now she’s here in NYC for her first time ever! Our first stop (after a slice of pizza) was The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck, for my 800th time, [...]

I can talk about my professional life in my blog a little bit, right? Here’s the story: I’ve loved The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck for awhile now (Doug is awesome, for one) and when I started working with The Mermaid Inn, I thought, “Hey! Let’s do something together!” And so we did. :) BGICT [...]
