Harding’s is one of the few restaurants that I have written up in Manhattan Digest where second time is truly the charm. My first experience there was two years ago when I devoured their amazing brunch options for me to enjoy. This time around, it was all things dinner at this colorful and fun Flatiron location, which treated me to a variety of their upscale American fare. I left feeling happy, satisfied, and more.

Mustang Harry’s Tasty Food & Ambiance Lights Up Midtown
As someone who works directly in the heart of midtown Manhattan, I find that a lot of the choices for food tend to be bland, conglomerate-based, and generally just not good in terms of taste and uniqueness. Mustang Harry’s, however, does not factor into that equation, as they are one of the few eateries surrounding Penn Station that is great for many different reasons. With its spacious interior, delicious food and friendly vibes, it is definitely one of the best places to go to before the big game, concert, or just for a fun night out.

Dig Inn Brings Better Options for Breakfast on the UES
I’ve been a fan of Dig Inn for years. Founder/CEO Adam Eskin and Culinary Director Matt Weingarten’s special approach to wholesome, locally-sourced, and vegetable dominant dishes sets them apart from other fast service restaurants. I say “fast service” because this certainly isn’t fast food, and the service from the folk behind the counter is genuinely kind. When i was a personal trainer, I would tell clients that this was one of their best options for quick dining out. The meals are nutrient rich and because they are made of whole, quality ingredients (you easily identify what everything is on your plate) it was simple for them to log the food they were eating. The food is delicious too, with a homecooked look and taste, you won’t feel you have abandoned your kitchen, but simply visited it elsewhere.

Trademark Taste + Grind Shines in Midtown
I tend to avoid parts of midtown Manhattan like the plague, especially around quitting time when it can become a cluster to get through. No matter what though, good food is good food, so naturally I was excited to stop by Trademark Taste + Grind last night with a friend to see what all the fuss was about. The overall experience was worth the trek and then some, for so many different reasons. [Read more…] about Trademark Taste + Grind Shines in Midtown

Being from Texas, there a certain types of cuisine that are near and dear to my heart. TexMex, of course, barbeque (all about the dry rub…sorry North Carolina), and Southern fare. I’m hypercritical of these types of food – I can’t help it!

Your Fall Cooking Lacks Some Commitment
Now, don’t get me wrong, I love fall and its jauntily worn scarves, changing colors, hot cider and rich pumpkin. But fall lacks commitment. That sweater we pull on Saturday morning to walk to the farm market will be tied at our waists as soon as the sun climbs higher in the sky. Caps, perched well above the ear, are worn more for fashion than warmth. And the crystalline blue sky, while crisp and clear, is far from cold.
