A randomly found restaurant where you like the food is the best kind of food exploring. This happened when me and a friend were walking around East Village. Taquitoria is a quick bite before/after drinks spot that has a menu of Tacquitos and delicious sauces. Rolled, flute-shaped, tacos filled with beans fried, topped with meating…

Co-owned by TV personality Joe Bastianich (Restaurant Startup & Master Chef), Eataly is a popular New York stop. Finally going there, I was confused. It was crowded, people walking all around, servers in between people shopping/tasting or standing in line to pay. It was like a market in India. Anyhow, we found a vegetarian friendly…

Restaurant: Mistral, Boston Lambs Lettuce with Soft Goats Cheese & Pecan Melba, Apple Cider Vinaigrette: I did not know there was a lettuce called lamb’s lettuce. The presentation was good. Artisanal Cheese Assiette with House Made Jams & Native Honey, Toasted Baguette I don’t get it. 4 pecans, 4 pieces of cheese and some jam for…

A new Mediterranean quick bite restaurant opened near our house and turns out their food is pretty good. Mimi’s Hummus on 14th & 2nd. For appetizers we got: Hummus (mediocre – it was probably the entire can of chickpeas) Labneh (delicious!) My main course was a falfel pocket with onions, cucumbers & yogurt (serving these…

Restaurant: Veselka Potato Pancakes pan-fried served with sour cream & apple sauce These were heavy! Pierogi: Ukrainian-Style Dumplings: Fried with sauteed onions, apple sauce & sour cream. Fillings : potato & cheese.  These would’ve tasted great if I wasn’t stuffed on those potato pancakes.

Restaurant: Campo Enoteca, NH They call it Eggplant Rollatini which look like Eggplant Sushi. Grilled, thinly sliced eggplant stuffed with herbed ricotta with San Marzano pomodoro. Very interesting. I’m not a big fan of eggplants, still not.

If we ever have a third date, this will be what I prepare for you. Pan tomatè veggie balls with herbed goat cheese and sourdough bread (Yes, I have a secret sauce) Guac and chips Non-alcoholic sparkling fruit drink (you can have wine if you prefer)

Those green colored grreen pepper like objects on the taco are pieces of cactus. They taste like green beans, that means not good.  At Empellón Al Pastor NYC
