New York I ♡ you #5

2011-09-29T12:45:00.030+02:00

These are a few spots that I liked in New York & Brooklyn:

• GROTTO • A super romantic Italian restaurant. We dined in the lovely backyard. Amazing risotto. Very good wine too. 100 Forsyth Street NYC
• TARALUCCI & VINO • A nice bar/restaurant. Colombus Ave. NYC
• JOE'S PIZZA • A grab-a-quick-slice joint. Light crispy crust. Carmine Street NYC
• ANTIQUE GARAGE • Mercer Street NYC

• CUBANA SOCIAL • Very good sandwiches - 70 North 6th St Brooklyn
• FIVE LEAVES • Cozy restaurant. The "Five Leaves burger" is delicious. 18 Bedford Ave. Brooklyn
• CHAVELLA'S • Tasty Mexican food. We were lucky to have a table, it was really crowded. 732 Classon Ave. Brooklyn
• THE BLUE STOVE • Super cozy bar where we had breakfast a couple of time, on the sunny bench outside. They have delicious orange zest scones! Friendly staff too. 415 Graham Ave. Brooklyn
• VAN LEEUWEN • Probably the best cappucino and artisanal icecream ever. 632 Manhattan Ave. Brooklyn

Disappointed with...
• THE SMILE • Nice old-fashioned decor. The food was ok but I wasn't impressed, it was very simple, like sandwiches you make at home when you are in a rush. I had read great things, but it didn't live up to expectations. The crowd was exclusively hipster and when I looked to the staff I though the place should be renamed The Grumpy...

Humour grinçant, débit de mitraillette et vision éclairée de la mode sont les composantes des films made by Prigent.
J'ai manqué la diffusion de cette série de reportages, ce coffret sera donc mon prochain achat.

Ross Ching, a graduate from the Sand Diego State University's film program takes us in a journey that fulfills that empty vision of Los Angeles. He created this time lapse environment by shooting a series of still images on the same position and then masking the layers until the environments were fully empty of cars. Beautiful, isn't it?

(pic by me)

The Food for Thought's recipe book is the nice surprise I found in my mail box this morning (thank you love!). Since I enjoy cooking more and more lately, this new inspiration source is very welcome.
A good friend of mine recommended this place to me last time I went to London and ever since I can't wait to go back there. After experiencing their delicious and tasty dishes -all freshly prepared on the day- I could easily understand why this vegetarian restaurant, based in the heart of Covent Garden, exists for nearly 30 years. I warn you, it is very popular so quite crowded too. The tiny basement is packed with pine tables and stools, it is basic but very charming and cosy. Stop by if you go to London!
