There’s nothing more satisfying than a delicious meal at a great price. Sorry snickers you don’t cut it, but dinner at an established New York restaurant during restaurant week sure does! My doting husband surprised me with a birthday dinner at the Tribeca Grill. I’m embarrassed to say that I had never heard of it [...]

My husband and I sleep in a cave. Unlike many New York City apartments with a view of the next building we are fortunate enough to have a beautiful view of the East River…Oh, and a well lit hospital parking lot. Thanks to this parking lot’s mammoth on-24-hour a day halogen lights, my husband and [...]

It’s another mild Turkey Day in the Big Apple! Thinking about heading to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade are we? Well, it wouldn’t be a bad idea! In 2007 the hubs and I were watching the parade on TV. We figured we’re young, we’re in the city, and it’s a perfect day to be outside, [...]

Now, this is my first attempt (on paper, eer web page) at being a food critic, so forgive me for using adjectives such as wonderful and delicious, but our meal was indeed wonderful and delicious! Everyone’s [...]
