It was awful out. Two weeks back on a Wednesday evening I made it down to the East Village through a harrowing storm out of a Bram Stoker novel to Plado Tasting Bar.

Little King Provides an Epic Brunch in the heart of East Williamsburg

by Matt Belvedere

Little King

Ten years ago, Williamsburg was a place I would just hang out in. As of recently I now live there. When moving into any new neighborhood, you have to find your “go to spots”. After my visit to Little King, I believe I have found my first. Now in proper brunching fashion, I went out the night before and had a few cocktails. So that morning, my body was ready for a good meal and drink to help lighten the burden that was my hangover. [Read more…] about Little King Provides an Epic Brunch in the heart of East Williamsburg

by Matt Belvedere

Andrew Zimmern

New York City is an ever changing landscape. Finding unique spaces that embrace tradition, time and classic flavors is becoming more and more difficult as our neighborhoods disappear. This past Wednesday evening, myself and a group of fellow writers and food enthusiasts were taken on a journey by Chef, Writer, Television Host, and Global Ambassador of Renaissance Hotels Andrew Zimmern. The evening was created to encourage business travelers to experience “5 to 9” with as much vigor as they approach their “9 to 5″.  Titled “An Unusual Business Dinner”, this was an exciting & unpretentious foray into what is to come for their “Global Day of Discovery” in May.

Up until 6 months ago they closed to relocate to a different space not too far from the original. Relaunching about a week and a half ago you can tell that they were truly missed by the neighborhood.

When most folks in Long Island think of Greek food, their mind travels to piles of Gyro meat and giant murals of Mykonos. Gladly, my visit to Taverna 38 helped to destroy that misconception with an authentic yet upscale dining experience. Owners John Alexopoulos and Claudio Peralta have created something truly special.
