Avoid The Usual and Head To Tres Carnes For Mexican BBQ Heaven
If you don’t love tacos or burritos, quite frankly I don’t want to know you. There is so much to love about them, in terms of execution of flavor, depth, ingredients, spice, and so much more, that you must have a really weird palate to not enjoy just how great they really are. With all of the “conglomerate” type of taco/burrito places infiltrating the city, many are finding that the unique “one off” types that make our city so fantastic are being drowned out by mass produced crap. One place that is defying all of that with some of the best tasting tex-mex food I have ever had, is Tres Carnes, with locations on 6th Avenue between 22nd and 21st Street, and 3rd Avenue between 56th and 57th street.

While we were sitting at our cafe table at Studio Kraut on a busy Saturday afternoon, a friend swooshed up to me to say hi.

This restaurant seems to be trying to breathe new life into its old shell at the corner of 8th avenue and 18th street. [Read more…] about A Neighborhood Art Scene and Schnitzel Meet at Studio Kraut
