Oro Bakery and Bar Review

By Tina Phounsavath on February 25, 2013 · Add Comment · In Dine
Tweet

Whenever I hear the words desserts, pastries, and booze in the same sentence, I get excited. Very excited. For a sweet and unique happy hour, head down to Oro Bakery and Bar on Manhattan’s Lower East Side.

Oro Bakery and Bar is not your ordinary coffee shop. Located on Broome Street, on the edge of the LES bordering Chinatown/Little Italy, this unassuming and welcoming spot came into view last summer, on a hot July day.…

STK Midtown Review

On February 12, 2013 By Gerard Boucher

Last week, we ventured over to New York City’s resident steakhouse-meets-nightclub STK Midtown for lunch. In a city where another steakhouse looms on just about every corner, we were intrigued by the prospect of a uniquely hybrid steakhouse. Entering the steakhouse, we had one big question on our mind: would it balance the conceptual with the cuisine and serve up great steak?

We arrived for our 1:15 PM reservation slightly early, and were seated immediately.…

Philippe NYC Review – Elegant & Chic Chinese Cuisine in the Big Apple

On February 7, 2013 By POKERprimaDIVAS

The food at Philippe is unique and delicious – In no way is it your traditional Chinese cuisine. Born out of Mr Chows in Manhattan the restaurant holds its own and has a good crowd and energy. If you have a chance try the outpost in Miami too. A little tamer but the food is just as good.

But I digress. On the evening we dined at Phillipe we were relegated to the upstairs – the equivalent of Siberia but it was prime dinning time and we did not feel like waiting for a better table downstairs.…

Patek Philippe Calatrava Review – Time Keeping Excellence

On February 7, 2013 By Warda Khan

The Patek Philippe Calatrava series of exquisite watches is a culmination of a long journey of elegance perfection in watch making. The Patek Philippe Company which started as the Patek, Czatek and Cie way back in 1839, has maintained the extremely the high level of precision that the Swiss are so well known for. The skills honed for close to two hundred years, and gathered from diverse countries such as Poland, France, and Switzerland, are evident in these watches that are more of art masterpieces than anything else.…

Three Must-Do Activities Not Listed In NYC Tour Books

On February 7, 2013 By Li M

Figuring out what to do in New York City is a tough one. After my friend and I agree on the same day to meet up, we toss the responsibility of making plans to each other. There are places I want to go — but then it turns up she’s been there. Or, worse, it happens the other way around. I can spend a whole day in the MOMA, but she sticks to Macy’s.…

Rubirosa NYC Review

On February 5, 2013 By Gerard Boucher

It’s time we pay tribute to Rubirosa, a little Italian eatery tucked away on Mulberry Street in the Nolita neighborhood of Manhattan. We visited the hidden gem last week for lunch, and left happy once again.

We entered the restaurant a little around 1 PM and found it to be pretty empty. Where were the crowds in this sometimes overcrowded and packed restaurant? We wondered, all but shrugging the question off as we were sat at a cozy table towards the back of the restaurant.…

Chow down on a hot dog from a street vendor in the middle of Central Park, cheer on the Yankees on homeground, or catch a show on Broadway to get the all American experience in the city that never sleeps.…
