Jalepeno Mac n cheese was the bomb. com.... It looks small but it's plenty big.. the picture does not justify the awesomeness this dish has... I need to replicate this dish at home

The calamari was okay... I could have done without it....

My friend had the mushroom Mac n cheese and she too loved it...

I would go back for the drinks as well as try other dishes (and get my mac n cheese to go so I can indulge like the skinny fat girl that I am) LOL

These Truffle fries were really good!!

Went here with a few people whom never tried the stuff and they all bough their own order of this crack!!

I told them that it would be good and they didn't believe me!

These Crabcake sliders were beyond belief

OMG

I shared this order but best believe I ordered another one to go!

I also will admit this little tidbit... If you park in the garage next door, they will give you a voucher for it! how cool is that!!

I would def go back here, the vibe was good, the Drinks were cool and everything else was awesome!

Lobster tails @ Fernandez Steakhouse

4:30 PM by jpdazleNo comments

Company Dinner!!!

Rabo de Lagosta (16oz) Grelhado

Grilled Lobster Tail (16oz)

This has got to be one of the freshest Lobster tails I've ever had in my life.

The Rice was delicious, the Clarified butter was amazing and the home fried potato chips were out of this world!!!

The veggies tasted like they came from a fresh garden, I mean common it was just an excellent dish

My co-workers ate all of the Meat that was passed around. I can't vouch for any of it but they looked good. The place got packed really quickly!

I would Highly recommend this place to any one for any occasion!!!

Nice Sunday Brunch !

Happy Hour Sangrias

These were nice and refreshing to drink and pared well with anything as per the waiter we had suggested

Shrimp Oreganato

The pizza I think we both fought one another for the last two slices

It was flavorful, delicious and so welcoming

I will most lightly try and recreate this at home one day

Lobster Sliders

These were cool but It had more filler than Lobster and could have been better

I would highly recommend this place to any one who is in the area!

BELGIAN WAFFLE$14.00meyer lemon ricotta, candied orange

Nice and Light and fluffy Pancakes! OMG this was delicious... The candied oranges weren't too sweet and left a nice tangy taste to the maple syrup. I loved this dish a lot

I am making waffles this weekend I need to make this on my own and enjoy!!

Complimentary Belini!

The Belini was delicious, it was a peach one, but the juices tasted like grapefruit... I was not complaining, it was free and it kept coming!

CALIFORNICATION$13.00crab, shrimp, cucumber, avocado, mango sauce

Normally I would not write about a California roll, but these had REAL crab chunks in there. I mean Holy molly Really Crab in a California roll! I was in heaven... and we should have gotten another order!

This was a great Lobster roll. Extremely Big and I was really happy with the seasoning. Enough to share or big enough if your really hungry!

Van Diemen Experience

1:00 PM by jpdazleNo comments

OH how i love visiting friends in the city on my off days, And today was the best visit yet. Being a Pescatarian has it's down sides when it comes to eating out but when you find new items on the menu, you remember what it means to be a foodie!!1

They added Fish Tacos on the menu and boy oh boy were these bad boys good!!!!!. At $14 these bad boys packed a whopping flavor punch all in my taste buds! The tangy sauce, the great spice on the actual fish right down to the mango salsa on top! Now this wasn't my only order... I sure did order another one to goo... Couldn't keep this great experience to myself, I had to share it with my Boo of course!!!

Their Truffle fries are to die for! I don;t ever have to ask what else I need/ want with anything I order, the Truffle fries are mandatory at all cost. They have a really good truffle oil in that kitchen, so good I went looking for it and found a decent one to make these amaze-ball fries at home my damn self!!!

WELL Well WELL I highly suggest going here, and tipping the bartenders really well You hear!!! Never disappointing when I travel here! Till then

Harlem at fifth (Coupon)

5:30 PM by jpdazleNo comments

$40 or $80 to Spend at Harlem on Fifth Bar & Grill Harlem on Fifth Bar & Grill

What a great Coupon to utilize in an interesting location. At first I was a little skeptical because I rather coupons that have a set amount of items to choose from but that defeats the purpose of trying new things I guess, Any who ( no more rambling) I really enjoyed my time here with my boo and let me show you why!!

This is one side of their draft beer selection, and being a beer lover, I was able to select all of the lovely beers they has on tap and enjoyed!

TASTING STROLL ON 5TH

5 oz SAMPLING OF OUR SIX CRAFT BEERS$14.95

My Favorite Beers would have to be the Speakeasy, Harlem At fifth (hahahaha), and the Nutty neighbor. The drinks are lined up just the way they are listed, and taste oh so good.

RIESLING DR. HANS VON MULLER 2011

fruity aroma and semi-dry finish. Mosel, Germany

My boo had a few glasses of this really light and crisp wine. It was a good choice with the meal we had.

Here is a a side of some veggies to indulge in.

LEMON GLAZED SALMON

lemon, butter, white wine, herbs$22

CANDIED YAMS and Rice on the Side

This dish was interestingly good, but we were advised to get the teriyaki, and I wish we did. The Salmon needed a little Umph or something. It lacked something on int he seasoning but it was edible.

GRILLED SHRIMP MAC-N-CHEESE

shrimp, cilantro, parsley$12

This was a a cool dish, I wasn't too fond of it. I rather the Crab instead, more flavorful and delicious!!!

BLUE CRAB MAC-N-CHEESE

crab, parsley, panko bread crumbs$12

Here's what I really enjoyed!!!!

The bits and pieces of the blue crab and the mac and cheese here was a real treat! I really enjoyed this a lot

I would highly suggest going here! The staff is great, the food is good/great depending on what flavor you choose lol... All in all a great dinner was had here!

NIOS happy hour

2:16 PM by jpdazleNo comments

Wow What a great place to find and spot good food...and guess what! Complimentary WINE for an hour.... I'd say it's a gold Mine!

Here we have Truffle fries, they were okay...the aoli on the side was good, could have used a little bit more truffle though.

And the Complimentary Wine guys!!! Yes free wine from 5 pm-6 pm. They do a rotation of a red and a white during the week. Great way to Sample a new wine a week I'd say. Inside of a snazzy hotel, I bet the rooms are as amazing as the lobby is. I would Love to go back and just watch the fire place and a have a few wines along with it.

I would recommend this place and have people try their dishes. i', not sure how the Lunch is set up... I might go in on a pay day to see what my Dollar can get me.... Till next time... Stay snazzy!

Babylon Carriage Prefix/ Happy Hour

10:48 AM by jpdazleNo comments

Creamy Shrimp Pasta linguini...

This Dish was requested by both my niece and sister who didn't really want to partake in the free buffet that was going on this Friday evening. When it came out my niece immediately said eww green... Then she tasted it and was like oh yummy this is so good.

I Tried it and was really amazed at how rich in flavor it was. Unfortunately there was a hair in the mix.... Then we got the manager to bring out a new one... which unbelievably tasted better than the first one! Go figure...

Truffle Mac & Cheese

By far... the best mac and cheese I ever had with truffle in it! Everyone at the table wanted some! I was like No no no no no!!! But the I gave in and let everyone same a bit... I will def get this one again when I have a chance!

Lobster Ravioli

Now for the Restaurant week part of the meal! This was the entree... the Appetizer didn't make the shot because it was gone before it hit the table... We had Thai Calamari which is really good and it's only 5 bucks on the Happy hour menu.

The lobster ravioli's were like little pillows of happiness. My BF and I share this meal because I didn't want anything else on the menu...Boy did we want to get another bowl!!

Pumpkin Bread Pudding

I'm not a fan of bread pudding... so my review might be biased... but my niece who is so cute and smart tried it... and said " oh that taste like pumpkin toast from school". I said yes that's exactly what it is... she and my bf enjoyed it... I had another cocktail...

I would totally recommend this place because I've invited countless amount of friends for a round or two of drink here on Fridays. If your in town I would def check this place out!!
