I am a huge fan of restaurateur & television personality Donatella Arpaia. I am also a big fan of anything that involves pizza or Italian food nonetheless. So when you combine two things that I have a big fondness for, naturally you will find a big smile on my face as I know I will be in for something good. This was the experience I had last night as I took my friend to Donatella’s latest venture, Prova Pizzabar, located inside the iconic Grand Central Station.

Street Taco Has a Deliciously Amazing Debut in Gramercy
I am never one to turn down a taco, no matter what kind of diet I am on or mood I’m in (insert as many taco emojis as possible here). So naturally, I was super excited to see that a new location dedicated to my love of this Mexican jewel of a cuisine, Street Taco, just opened in the heart of Gramercy on the corner of 26th Street and 3rd Avenue. Street Taco has a pretty simple concept- bomb ass tacos, drinks, flautas, desserts and more in an incredibly artistic setting that will leave you inspired and full in the best way possible.

Donna Margherita Transports You to Italy Via the Upper East Side
Donna Margherita is one of those classic examples of what Italian food is truly a gift for our mouths. With its recent opening on 2nd Avenue between 68th and 69th Street, conveniently off the brand new Q subway line, this location has a ton of promise when it comes to its execution of some of the best Italian food I have ever had, not only for Manhattan Digest, but in my entire life.

Stephan Wolfert Captivates in Bedlam’s “Cry Havoc!”
Solo shows are a dime a dozen; the cost effective genre is staged in levels ranging from the prestigious big leagues of Broadway to modest community theaters in small towns around the world. While I have the utmost respect for actors who tackle the form, I have left many of them wishing for either a better performance, a more compelling narrative, or a bit more detail about the person’s life and the events that have shaped it.

Beatles-Inspired “IMAGINE” One Night Tribute Comes to The Cutting Room

The Cutting Room, one of the best concert venues in Manhattan for many years now, will be hosting an incredible one night theatrical tribute to this legendary band, coming up on April 30th!

Suzuki Offers Rare and Sensuous Culinary Delight in Midtown
From an early age, we’re taught that playing with our food is socially impolite. Fortunately for cosmopolitan diners, Chef Toshio Suzuki didn’t heed that advice. Suzuki is best known for his long time stint at Sushi Zen. The beloved midtown hot spot attracted business clientele, pre-theater diners, and celebrities alike and-in novelty form-was one of the few establishments to prepare and serve “fugu,” a potentially lethal puffer-fish that could put you in a body bag if prepared improperly.

The Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center is a Manhattanite’s Dream
The Rainbow Room has got to be one of the most iconic locations I have ever been to in the city of Manhattan. It’s sort of hard to figure out where to begin just to describe how beautiful and elegant this space is, as the minute the elevator doors opened on the 65th floor inside Rockefeller Center left me and my friend completely speechless. I took my friend there this past Sunday just to experience how incredibly awesome it truly was, and was left feeling so many emotions but most of all the feeling that we just experienced something that is truly special.
