He is fresh from the four-star Radius in Boston,

Written by admin on October 30, 2008. Posted in Eat & Drink

While most people associate comfort foods with blandness, Pad Thai makes it into the comfort food pantheon with its incredible balance of sweet and tangy, crunchy and slippery. As recognizable to Americans as Chinese moo-shu pork, Pad Thai consists of stir-fried rice noodles, fish sauce, tamarind, peanuts, egg, bean curd and cilantro. Sura’s sprightly version,

SHAKE SHACK CREATES A STIR

Written by admin on October 30, 2008. Posted in Eat & Drink, News & Features West Side Spirit

It was 3 o’clock on a Saturday afternoon, and the normally placid corner of 77th Street and Columbus Avenue was thronged. Despite a driving rain, mothers with strollers jockeyed with twenty-somethings and retired folk in a line that extended around the corner and halfway down the block to Amsterdam Avenue. A Miley Cyrus album signing?

BBRRRING! BUTTERFIELD-ATE

Written by admin on October 23, 2008. Posted in Eat & Drink

Sitting on the median strip of Park Avenue, I felt slightly odd and derelict. There are artfully coiffed Begonia beds, but no benches as there are across town on the Upper West Side. There I sat and emptied my bag of provisions from Butterfield Market, the immaculate upscale grocery that’s been in business since 1915

LOUNGE-STYLE SUSHI

Written by admin on October 23, 2008. Posted in Eat & Drink

There’s plenty of great sushi in town, but there’s always room for more, especially if it’s as imaginatively prepared as it is at Rock-N-Sake. In fact, many of chef David Hoang’s handrolls are not available anywhere else. The restaurant is co-owner Joseph Ulloa’s third edition of Rock-N-Sake. He opened his first in the posh warehouse

REVIVED NORTHERN ITALIAN

Written by admin on October 16, 2008. Posted in Eat & Drink

There are so many good restaurants in Midtown that it’s all too easy to overlook the less showy ones, and there are so many good Italian restaurants in this city that the same is true of them. You seldom hear of Italian restaurants going under, and there are many good reasons for that, including the

HAVE A BLINTZ, BUBBELEH

Written by admin on October 16, 2008. Posted in Eat & Drink

I can think of no better place to bring a visitor to New York than Zabar’s café. Of course, the tourists head in droves to Zabar’s; but to get the real New York experience you need to sit in the adjacent café—really no more than a long table ringed by uncomfortably high bar chairs—and listen
