Where I Go Out
Fish & grits
$$$, Outdoor Seating, Full Bar, Happy Hour, Modern, Southern / Soul, Harlem
"You just can’t go wrong with this flavor combination, and with the polenta underneath, it’s the ideal comfort food: interesting, comforting, and fulfilling."
French toast with seasonal fruit
$$$, Happy Hour, Full Bar, Modern, New American, Midtown Manhattan
"It’s crispy on the exterior and palatable in the interior. It is truly the best French toast I’ve ever had!"
Truffle chawanmushi
$$$, Full Bar, Japanese, Sake Bar, West Village
"I love the texture and flavor of the custard. It’s cooked perfectly with a backdrop of black truffle essence and a subtle perfume of dashi."
Ricotta panella
$$, Italian, Columbia Street Waterfront
"Ferdinando's is a rare Carroll Gardens treat that's been there for a hundred years. There's a great ricotta panella as well as a pasta con sarde (with fennel and pine nuts). If you can stomach it, the Sicilian baked spleen sandwich with ricotta is a simple delicacy."
Black Label burger
$$$, Burgers, Modern, American, Steakhouse, Greenwich Village
"Of all the burgers I've eaten, this one, made with different cuts of prime dry-aged beef and caramelized onions (and no cheese), is tops and worth the expense. They should call it the 'truth' burger."
At My Venues
Creamy polenta
$$$$, Italian, Midtown
"Perfect pastas with the best polenta in New York, all served with immaculate service and a well-rounded wine list. The creamy polenta with fricassée of truffled mushrooms is a must-order. Its rich mushroom sauce is great to dip bread into once the polenta is gone. Also, the short rib and bone marrow agnolotti, with crisp garlic chips and fresh horseradish, is not to be missed."
Zucchini Pizza with goat cheese, chili & pesto
$$, Outdoor Seating, Reservations, Full Bar, Modern, Italian, Camelback East Village
"Zucchini Pizza with goat cheese, fresno chili & pesto @azfoodie"
