Dinner

Cruises on the Hudson are a Summertime thrill that we look forward to every year. The warm breeze and scenic landscape have become a familiar and cherished indulgence. One our favorite ways to cruise is with Classic Harbor Line. Their well-managed fleet always provides a fun, safe experience. Their most luxurious vessels are the Manhattan and Manhattan II. Each yacht is designed with classic details, featuring a bright interior lounge below as well as a magnificent outer deck with seating. Last year we spent a full day on their cruise to Poughkeepsie. This year we decided to try their Bear Mountain excursion. The Bear Mountain cruise begins at pier 62 in Chelsea, from there it’s a three-hour cruise to Bear Mountain State Park. The ship docks for three full hours at the park before heading back to Chelsea.

In New York City, the meatpacking district is the place to go for good eats and exceptional nightlife. It’s no secret why Bagatelle is one of the places everyone must visit while in the big apple. Bagatelle is a fine French bistro known for a lively brunch scene, with an opulent space accented by graffiti art. Depending on the day/night, the ambiance at Bagatelle can be fun, cozy, or a party. The night we stopped in to sample the menu, it was very cozy and intimate, which is what we prefer. Speaking of new the menu, let’s talk about what Bagatelle is offering their patrons for this Spring/Summer season.

Location: 93 MacDougal Street, New York N.Y. 10012

Cuisine: Italian (Pizza)

Best Dish: The pasta was tasty and the meatballs unforgettable but the pizza reigns supreme.

Price:$$

Overall: A quaint restaurant with old-school charm and amazing pizza. An ideal option for all pizza/pasta lovers.

New Yorkers know good pizza, we all possess the innate ability to ferret out the very best in saucy cheesy goodness. As a result, the argument over the best in the big apple is one that will rage on to infinity. Each boro has their go-to pizza place, one of Staten Island’s favorites is Denino’s Pizzeria & Tavern.

Have you heard of a Kaitai Show? No? Well, I had not either until last week when we had the privilege of attending the first ever Kaitai Show at La Nacional in New York City. A Kaitai Show is the demonstration of cutting and butchering techniques by a master chef. This Kaitai Show featured a gargantuan specimen of Bluefin Tuna weighing more than 400 lbs.

The Bluefin was caught less than 24 hours before making its debut at the show.

Brunch at La Pulperia Hell’s Kitchen

by xoJohn

Location: 371 West 46th Street New York, NY

Cuisine: Rustic Latin

Best Dish: The Lobster Taquitos was an outstanding dish. The crispy wontons held up well against the succulent lobster filling.

Price: $$

Overall: If you’re looking for more than a boozy brunch La Pulperia’s Drag brunch will give you an experience worth sharing. This isn’t a show for the overly sensitive or easily offended. Prepare to have a good old, adults only good time.

Review: Demarchelier Restaurant

by James Bianca

Location: 50 East 86th Street (At Madison Avenue) New York, NY 10028

Price: $$$

Overall: It’s a little taste of Paris’ La Rive Gauche (the Left Bank) on the Upper East Side. A night in this sweet French restaurant may leave you expecting to wander out onto cobblestone streets – and not into a sea of yellow cabs.
