Practically an uptown vegan institution, Peacefood Cafe has a Upper West Side following that goes way back. Before the Organic Avenue moved across the street, before the Hampton Chutney set down roots a few doors down, and before the Steven Allen even, Peacefood Cafe was on the scene. The first time I went to Peacefood...

It will feature multiple selections of raw juices and innovative cocktails, as well as some vegetarian passed canapés. We will provide fun facts and nutritional education on the benefits of the raw juices and canapés,...
It’s no surprise Westville (West Village) is celebrating it’s 10th birthday this month. As New Yorkers know, in order to make it in this high rolling – high rent City, you gotta be serving something special. Or you gotta have excellent service. And Westville has both. They’ve got their method down and they have their...
Stealthly located on the 2nd floor of a plain ‘ole office building — just off of Union Square — is the OM cultivating, compassionate yumminess called Jivamuktea Cafe. Jivamuktea Cafe is not easy to find, especially for someone who hasn’t visited the yoga studio, but well worth the effort. If you make it past the...
This blog post is a special one for me. I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to write — because I essentially live at Snack Taverna. Ok, maybe that’s a stretch, but I do frequent there a lot, since it’s not far from my actual apartment. That’s neither here nor there, because even...
Beecher’s is one of our go to lunch places in the Flatiron/Gramercy Park area. We even wrote a review about it last year. I mean, you can’t go wrong with handmade cheese with milk from local farmers, delicious salads, and many other healthy options. YUM! If you’ve been to Beecher’s, you know exactly why we...
The brain child of Heather Tierney, mixologist and owner of Apotheke and Pulqueria, The Butcher’s Daughter is right on par. The carefully curated decor – white tiles, plants, vintage wood and metal – evokes a feeling of organic simplicity, brightness, and warmth. Not surprisingly, the food evokes the same. All within the context of a “butcher”...
Most people who live in the West Village or Nolita have fallen in love with Taim. The closet-sized Israeli street food joint synonymous for its amazing falafels, Israeli salad, and smoothies. It has been a go-to of mine since moving to the City. I’ve finally had a chance to eat at their sister restaurant...
We’ve been hearing the buzz about Egg for quite some time now. And after eating at and loving Parish Hall – Egg’s sister restaurant — we decided to give it a go. We headed there for a working lunch and despite the daunting line and rain, we scored a table fairly quickly. We hear Egg...
Wood, stone, sun, earth- HU Kitchen is bringing it back to basics. We loved the simple inviting aesthetic as well as the staff who matched the energy of the decor. Oh! Did we mention we met the owners, a brother-sister team, who were walking around greeting and connecting with customers. According to Jordan Brown (the...
Ahhhh, Williamsburg! It’s our first food blogging foray into this neighborhood, and it’s easy to see why Williamsburg has earned its reputation as the hippest kid in town. Williamsburg restaurants are giving Manhattan a run for their money. Which, frankly, I’m happy about because a little healthy competition always breeds inspiration! And Parish Hall is...
As we passed the opaque black glass door on 56th street it was the hint of neon that caught our eye. It said MILK and we wanted to know more. JACKPOT!! Little did we know, we had come upon one of the most exciting spots in mid-midtown’s restaurant scene- Ma Peche. Ma Peche is located...
