Nothing is more precious then cooking at home for your family. I was bored on Saturday and decided to make pizza (I was also hungry). 

Below is the store bough pizza dough, sauce that I made with fresh tomatoes, basil, oregano, thyme, parsley, sea salt, black pepper and a little bit of adobe. Now that was a small twist I came up with and I will explain why later. 

I sprinkled Parmesan cheese and placed it in the oven for 20 minuets 
 I took the pizza out to add my chicken that I had left over from the night before. It was a little spicy but not overwhelming. The reason for a little adobe in the sauce was to help balance the kick in the chicken. I thought it was a good idea. I added it and put the pizza back into the oven
 For added cheese I sliced fresh mozzarella cheese on top and placed the pie in the broiler for 5 minuets.
 It took about an hour to complete this pizza but It was worth it.
Every one loved the pizza and i wish I made a bigger pie. It was only 12 inches and we all got a big slice and were still hungry lol.

It was a great experience and i loved it. Till next time happy eating :) !

OMG I fell in love with this place and dreamed of the day I would go back and I did. This place is located in South Street Seaport before the docking area on you left. I could not find a website but I did find a couple Yelp-rs recommending this place like I am. 

Below we have my favorite thing that I was introduced to. I love ribs but these were ridiculously delicious that I ordered another one.... and I was not ashamed!. It's called Guinness_______ribs. That's how I describe it.  The fries are fresh, they don't taste like they were frozen, and the vegetables are seasons perfectly. And it's not with just salt and pepper. I taste a little cumin or something in there. 

Now why would someone go to a "Fish Market" and order ribs you might ask... Well We all know that the seas food would be great for crying out loud it's by the water. But what you don't expect is for the other dishes to be as decadent and rich in flavor. I would never try the ordinary culinary decisions at a restaurant because it's part of the norm. I like to dive into something extraordinary and be surprised. I have yet to be disappointed!

If your ever in the area I highly recommend trying this. You will not be disappointed. And for the gamers out there I believe on Tuesdays you are aloud to bring in your consoles and play other gamers alike. Till then happy eating!

Out on the town with my date and we stumble upon this bar/restaurant. We were hungry and wanted to try something local. It was nearing 11:30pm and we didn't know if they'd still be serving food. But low and behold they were until 12am. We walked in and the people we awesome and very welcoming.


We both had drinks that I forgot to take pictures of but hey they were good. 

Below was my sandwich that consisted of turkey cheese and the house sauce. And when I say the sauce was so good I almost bit my finger forgetting I was nearing my last bite. It was well seasoned and melt in your mouth goodness. I wanted another burger but thought quickly that it was gluttony and I couldn't do that around the Lent season!

 Below my date had a regular cheese burger with the sauce as well and he too said it was succulent and divine. It went well with his beer as well.


I wish I took a picture of my drink because it was the waiters suggested drink and he suggested right. I was really happy we found this place.

We also had a side of sweet potato fries and that picture could not have been taken due to the fact it was gone as soon as it hit the table.


I would recommend going here for lunch, dinner, date, get together, or even to watch the game. It was a really good dinning experience and hope others feel the same as well!

I love good deals and when i saw a deal for 2 drinks, 1 appetizer and 2 entrees for only $16 bucks i had to purchase!!! Below we have a very and strong coconut mojito. The girl behind the bar was extra nice to me and a friend of mine because we got more drinks after.

 Below we have Flautas...it's like a rolled taco with meat and guacamole on the side. it was really good. After it was done I wanted more.
 Here we have my friends entree which was some type of chicken in a spicy sauce. I forgot the name but it was really good. It came with soft tortillas on the side.
 To go with both our entrees was a side of rice and beans. I love rice and beans especially if the rice has corn in it.
 My Entree below was an enchilada ( something I always get in green sauce) that was really spicy. FYI do not eat a spicy dish and turn to a mojito...it just adds to the pain lol!
In all I had a good time and the deal was great. I would go back with or with out the deal. Oh and happy hour was on while we were there! $5 drinks were the bomb.com!!!!!

I love Thai food. I was one a date the other night and was treated to Spice (located in Brooklyn). Displayed below is the green curry with chicken. I love green curry but this was spicy. I coughed up a storm!

I was given this much rice to go with that big bowl of curry… I love rice but did not want to make a scene and ask where the rest was.

The star of the night had to be the mango strawberry vodka drink. I was in heaven after he first sip. I hate sweet drinks but it was just right.
image
In all not much to complain nor rave about with this place. I would go again but more or less to take out or for happy hour.

The lunch special was the way to go. I had curry rice with teriyaki chicken and it came with a big bowl of Udon noodles. For only $12 that was a steal. I’m usually not full after lunch but I was quite impressed that I was full from this meal. I would definitely recommend any one to visit this place for lunch time.




This is the first post on my blog and it was worth it. I went to lunch with a few co-workers to a place called Udon West. But it was on the East side… Kind of confusing if you ask me. Any who, the food Was great and CHEAP!

Hey guys,
I was extremely hungry one morning and I hate skipping breakfast. I walked into my Favorite restaurant in the world because the people and the food over there is beyond the word great.
They were having a special BOGO ( buy one get one). At a restaurant I thought it was weird but hey I was hungry and didn’t care. I ordered the Lobster Roll because it’s the freshest thing I’ve ever tasted in my life. And I had the Broiled Tilapia


                                             

When I say my mouth was in heaven I wanted to order both of them again… but that would have been gluttony. I inhaled both meals in less than 10 minuets because i had a train to catch. The next day I got the same thing again. Please check this place out. You will not regret it!

Omg let me start off by saying that this place is heaven!
I got a deal from Gilt City and thought it would be fun to try. For $68 you get two appetizers, two entrees, two desserts, one bottle of wine, and two glasses of Moscato at the end.

 
That was the bottle of wine. It was pretty good not to tart not too dry It was just right given the menu of things I was about to EAT! 

 
I had ^^^ for my appetizer. I would Like to say that this was Amazing. Pan seared duck breast, watercress, pineapple,  fresh avocado in a extra virgin olive oil dressing. OMG it was just well put together I wouldn’t mind if it was an entree.



My friend had the salad ^^^. Don’t really recall what it was called but I remember it having raw salmon and some type of cheese. It was good but not better than my salad. ^.^
 
This ^^ was the star of the night. It was homemade potato gnocchi with Gorgonzola cheese and walnuts. There was sweet peppers in it too. I was in love with this dish. I’m a big Gnocchi fan and what they did to it in this dish really impressed me.
 
My friend had ^^ homemade tagliatelle pasta with cream, porcini mushrooms, and fresh parsley. to me it was good but not better than my dish. I wish I could have had another order of my dish but that would have been gluttony!!
 
The ending of the whole dinner came down to two deserts. Now I’m already going to say mine was better than my friend because I know what to choose from any menu! However i will let you decide. Here we have pan cotta  served with mixed berries. It’s like a flan with berries but different. Below we have some type of parfait. It was good but a bit sweet for my liking.

In all I enjoyed my night trying all of the dishes here. I would definitely recommend going there whether it’s alone, on a date, or just to try something new. They are really doing something right over here!

I think We all know by now that I am a Happy Hour Fanatic!I think that is the best part of the day! This is one of my favorite places to go when I'm in the Rockefeller center area. The Happy Hour is priceless and unheard of. They change menu items quite often but who cares It is always good! 

Below we have what my friend got which is Tuna BBQ. It was really good i had a bite and you wont believe that it was under $5 to get that!
 Here we have a personal Chicken Pizza. It was for only that day because I have yet to see it on the menu again but It was Really Good!!!!

 The Reason I come here is the Fish Taco!!! Holy Cow is it good And ONLY $2!!!!!. I always order 3 because one is a tease. The little salsa that comes with it you can do with out or add it for extra pizazz but it's up to you.
Below We have something you will not believe!.... This Burger and fries combo is only...wait for it...$2.95. I mean did they forgot the 1 before the 2 or am I in heaven and I've died happy lol. All jokes aside, This burger is that cheap and the taste is even better. You would not expect that coming from a seafood oriented restaurant.

The drinks that come with the happy hour are awesome also and make sure when you go to give a nice tip because they really deserve it over there.

I would not stir you wrong when I say this is a Must Try and Must See for your self place!!....


Till then Happy Eating!!
