Reviews of my favorite type of cuisine. Steakhouses have steak, and I love a good steak
Carne Mare is… interesting. Gorgeous setting, right on Pier 17 with the water view and a perfect breeze. (Not the place you want to be in winter, but that’s another rant.)Now, let me get this out of the way: I’m petty. Like, world-class petty. I will hold a grudge for years—decades even.

Closing time—time for you to go somewhere else, but you can’t stay in New York. Isn’t that how the song goes? Either way, this marks the final chapter of Becca’s birthday bash. It’s been a blast, but let’s be honest: I probably gained nine pounds in the process and really need some rest.For the grand…

I think I’m going to start a whole series on birthday prix fixe meals—because honestly, everyone’s sick of the group dinner chaos. You know the drill: half the table wants one thing, the other half…

Reserve Cut Park Avenue has been trying to fill this gap and meet the needs of the non-Jewish and Jewish residents and workers looking for fine…
