Dinner out - what do you wear? Ask Shopaholics Anonymous ...
Tonight I went to my girlfriends' monthly Fru-Fru Dinner. The group has many get togethers, but Fru-Fru night is when we get to dress up a bit (b/c every girl needs an excuse to dress up once in awhile) and go to a nice restaurant and treat ourselves a bit. Tonight I had prime rib with au jus, garlic mashed potatoes, and a glass...

Some great first date destinations in New York from The Gothamist...
We were recently asked about recommendations for good first date spots: 'she's allergic to shellfish, I hate TexMex - any thoughts?' We have plenty of thoughts.

This one's from the Amateur Gourmet...
Brunch, more than any other meal, celebrates abundance. We don't want one pancake when we go to brunch, we want a stack of glistening, syrup-coated chocolate-stuffed pancakes. Yet one pancake--a solitary, singular pancake--is one of the peculiarities you'll find...

The man didn't know what he was doing. I was at a Brooklyn coffee shop whose name is synonymous with donkey and I ordered an iced latte. The man (I'd call him a barista, but he clearly wasn't) took a glass...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI'd been hearing about this place for a while and finally got a chance to check it out.
