Heartland
We were on our way to take a boat tour of the Manhattan skyline when we stumbled upon this watering hole by Pier 16. They have a good selection of hand-crafted ales and beers and their wings were outstanding! We had a tasting of 7 beers and an order of...

Thai Son – review

By: | 0 Comments | On: July 30, 2012 | Category : Reviews, Vietnamese

Thai Son
  For our last meal in NY, we chose Vietnamese. Thai Son is the number one choice on Yelp and it didn’t disappoint. The pho was much more flavourful than Pho 88′s and the meat/soup ratio was more than acceptable. The noodles weren’t al dente enough though. What is it...

Nixtamal
Having see Guy Fieri on his show Diners, Drive-ins and Dives gave the nod to this joint, we just had to come here even though it’s in Corona! We were at the resto on a Thursday afternoon around 2:30p.m. and we had to wait 10 minutes for a table. The...

Pho 88 – review

By: | 0 Comments | On: July 28, 2012 | Category : Reviews, Vietnamese

We were starving when we got here at around 2p.m. on a Wednesday. Even though it was after the lunch rush, the resto was 1/3 full and there was constant traffic into the resto. The prices here are dirt cheap! 5.50 for a pho tai, or beef noodle soup with...

Chinatown Icecream Factory
We were recommended this place by our friend Lindsey and it didn’t disappoint! Right smack in the heart of Chinatown is this little gem that serves ice cream with Asian flavours. The scoops were very generous and the tastes the BOMB! We had one pandan and one black sesame. The...

Joe’s pizza – review

Joe's pizza
One word – WOW!!! I’ve said before (Keste’s review) that 2 things make a good pizza – sauce and crust! Joe’s fulfilled these criteria to the max! The sauce was tangy and flavourful while the crust was thin, crispy and chewy at the same time. I had the mozzarella while...

Mile End – review

Mile End
We first heard about this joint that serves Montreal smoked meat from Rahm Fama’s show on the food Network, Meat & potatoes. It’s run by an expat Canuck. It’s supposed to be the only place in NY where you can find Montreal smoked meat! Yes, you heard right! Because we...
