About Me
About Me
I live with my best friend, a culinary goddess, in the heart of the West Village in NYC. I am in love with food and love exploring the culinary world, primarily through all of the awesome restaurants in this city!
Interests
With regards to food: Fatty Crab. the Little Owl. (my two NYC favorites) along with sushi which is more of an addiction than a favorite. Overall I enjoy continuing to find new restaurants to explore + experience.
I get excited by innovative food, cozy, unpretentious environments, and by anyone following a dream (be it culinary or not) who is willing to go out on a limb and take a chance.
What I'm Listening to
I love music, even more than food...so this is tough. Favorites include: Ray LaMontagne, Z Trip, Robin Thicke, old school rap, JT, John Mayer, Matisyahu, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, the Fray, Snoop Dogg...
Favorite Foods
see above. The veggie buns & duck @ Fatty Crab are to die for. Other favorites: brunch @ Little Owl, hamburger at Lure fishbar, tapas at Boqueria, sandwiches from Columbine, dates at La Esquina, sushi @ hmmm...no true NYC favorites that beat Uchi in Austin which still is my #1 (although trying sushi in LA is on the horizon)...and the list goes on and on and on.
What I'm Watching
the Aleeza Gordon show on Food Network, it will be there one day :) On the negative side--I HATE everything that has to do with Rachael Ray. Outside food world: Prison Break, Rome, Entourage, Weeds, Dexter, the Hills (yep I'm a fan), Sportscenter, Jon Stewart.
Tastiest Libations
Employee's Only---everything there is amazing.
Always enjoy a good glass of red wine (and learning about wine).
Old standby drink: vodka + soda (zero calories, you can't go wrong.)
Favorite Restaurants
The best dining experiences have been mostly to do with the company. The other standouts all happen at Fatty Crab on Friday or Saturday sometime between 3:30 and 4:00 a.m.
Favorite Website Online
myspace.com, tmz.com, shopbop.com (the best fashion site---ever!), blog.ruhlman.com -- he's the best, and of course EATER.com--who could survive without eater?
Most coveted item
Hard to Get Reservation....come on now, this is nyc! (Still hoping for Per Se this spring...)

From PAGE SIX TODAY (THIS IS WAYYYYY TOOOO GOOD!) GO BOURDAIN!!!
October 11, 2007 -- RACHAEL Ray is getting a royal dunkin' from Anthony Bourdain for her big-bucks endorsement deal with Dunkin' Donuts. The prickly chef and "Kitchen Confidential" author says of the Food Network cutie in next month's Outside magazine: "She's got a magazine, a TV empire, all these best-selling books - I'm guessing she's not hurting for money. She's hugely influential, particularly with children. And she's endorsing Dunkin' Donuts. It's like endorsing crack for kids." Bourdain adds: "I'm not a very ethical guy. I don't have a lot of principles. But somehow that seems to me over the line. Juvenile diabetes has exploded. Half of Americans don't have necks. And she's up there saying, 'Eat some [bleeping] Dunkin' Donuts. You look great in that swimsuit - eat another doughnut!' That's evil." Ray's rep shot back: "Anyone who knows Rachael and watches her on TV is aware she promotes balance and moderation, instead of living life in extremes. Her work addressing kids' and families' nutritional needs speaks for itself so we respectfully disagree with Anthony's opinion."

not for nothing but anthony bourdain has too many skeletons in his closet to be preaching like he is. i think his comments are more based on jealousy than anything else, that or he's trying to draw some more publicity to himself since his show was cancelled and his restaurants aren't causing much buzz in the industry.
