Blue Smoke "BBQ Food"

Image
Blue Smoke two locations who knows BBQ treats and thangs. Flatiron and Battery Park http://www.bluesmoke.com/ 255 Vesey Street 212-889-2005 (the location I went too) The atmosphere is live and exciting. I enjoy the open side entrance attached to the outdoor seating. Its been an eventful Friday with HUGE work parties, family's hanging out. I was going to just explore and unwind with some tasty food and drinks. I spoke to the helpful bartender Blood orange margarita to start the night off, then an appetizer; toasted raviolis. I just found out that  after 12+ years Executive Chef left and know it's John Paul ..... He is now 6 months in, getting his feet wet and brewing up the next menu into what we shall know as blue smoke's "last name". In fact I'm very curious to check the new menu out. Items currently on the menu; deviled eggs, fry  bread, and the famous warm BBQ chips. Alright, I have came back for Restaurant Week. In the photo ...

Brownstone Pancake Factory

Image
OK. I love breakfast. It's in Jersey City off Grand Street. Plenty of parking, but prepared to wait (after 1100am). Its worth the wait. I've eaten here two times and its defiantly a high star in my book. first visit; the location is prime, the parking is great, the in and out service was smooth. I reviewed the menu and found out this is a "dine, drives, and dives". They have a Guy Feri pancake wrap, but its almost to much food. I have yet to try it. I ended up getting the basic pancake, bacon, and eggs combo which is a whooping 10.00 bucks (only in jersey are prices these great), especially for the amount of food you receive. The pancakes (my mouth is watering talking about it) are delicious. Cooked to perfection and really flavorful. They syrup adds a flavor that really evolves the two ingredients to continue taking another bite. They are served with four fluffy, lite, and not to battery packThe eggs and bacon were tasty and crisp just how I like it. The coffee...

Miller Guilds Review Seattle, WA

Miller Guilds Seattle, WA http://millersguild.com/ We walked into this spot around 8:30 am to have breakfast. I knew I wanted waffles or pancakes or French toast. I was a little skeptical about the description of the waffle. I received my waffle to look like this....... Amazing flavors, the maple syrup was fresh and delicious, the fruit was perfect not to tart, and the added cornmeal mix seeds were sooo amazing with the waffle. It was light, fluffy and not dense at all, the eggs were cooked to perfection; not runny or to hard, they were brown eggs and organic. The coffee was drip (option; drip or French press). The atmosphere had an inferno that turns into a grill hot stove for pizzas. It also warmed the place up, which was great for Seattle on a rainy day. This type of touches really completes a restaurant. Sometimes when you are living in Seattle you don't leave because of the weather and then you think of a nice fire and food. This would be a great spot to have it all an...

Milk Burger Review

Image
Milk Burger 2nd and 106th Street: East Harlem They use a potato bun (not toasted), American cheese (which I am NOT a fan) but was delicious on it. I also left the pickles and I don't like pickles. The milk sauce is divine and is additional but get it... This guacamole is literally sooo delicious and flavorful. The combines flavors allow it mouth to just loose all control. That's a real burger. Flavorful but without bacon. The fries are delicious and cook to perfection. The environment is very clean, well organized and the take out orders are endless. Three years and running and successful driving these orders out the door. This is NOT shake shake I'm sorry far from it. It's a ma and pa spot, that is killing the game. I ordered my second burger from Seamless and the burger arrived as if IT just came out of the ordering door. Not a single piece of ingredient was out of place. Wrapped with care to and from. The chocolate milkshake HIT the spot. Its defia...

Cheers 2 Thai

Cheers 2 Thai  Brooklyn (Williamsburg) Thai food Cheers is a great low key environment on metropolitan in Brooklyn. It's fairly new to this location. It's been here for about four months ( August 29th 2013 ). If u love thai food and great drinks come!!!! I sat at the bar and was able to people watch and look at the interesting artwork. They have this red like sculpture with salad spinners and fish and chip red baskets. It's defiantly something u should see. (I'm serious just come). Objects on the wall consist of bird house! Window colleagues with lamps, stuffed animals: fluffy the car and gorilla. Upstairs is a great view to the bar and seating area. The back leading to the kitchen is a collection it's self. Make sure if ur in the being or good to check it out. I started with a beach bum drink (10 bucks), Fried egg rolls and some cashew chicken over brown rice (extra 1). I like the egg rolls flavorful and bite size small and great for sharing (5...

Brooklyn Label Review

Brooklyn label www.brooklynlabel.com Greenpoint I had waffle, eggs, bacon, and coffee. The waffle was a little dry and didn't have that I want to finish taste, and the coffee was great. It wasn't that busy which was perfect, and everyone was welcoming and helpful as I made my final choice. Lets Start off by letting u know they have stumptown coffee (from Oregon), which is the ONLY reason I came to this spot. This location opened up a whole part of Brooklyn I never saw or knew about. The atmosphere was great and service was good. The huge wooden tables were fantastic for large groups and defiantly gave it a modern yet home feel. The coffee was really good and then eggs were fluffy and flavorful. I will be back. This neighborhood had it all. Food, shopping, and bars/restaurants.
