Here’s a win-win if I’ve ever seen one. Scoutmob, one of our local go-to deal sites (cause it’s free and I don’t have to feel like I wasted money when I forget to use a coupon), is offering a free 50% off deal to Matilda Tuscan & Mexican Cuisine in the East Village (647 E. 11th St.; 212-777-3355).

We hit up our favorite Koreatown crispy bon chon chicken spot this past Friday night. Apparently, the name has changed from Mad for Chicken to Mono + Mono (or something like that). What hasn’t changed, however, is how ridiculously good their crispy bon chon chicken is. We ordered one of the 3 liter bubbling beer towers of [...]

Everywhere you turn these days, it seems like there are Alba white truffles being shaved. And some places are actually making them somewhat approachable for the lay-foodie. Sandro’s (306 E. 81st Street, 212-288-7374) has just introduced a White Truffle Lover’s Dream Tasting Menu – four courses generously showered with white truffles – that it claims represents the best white truffle [...]

Because irresponsible people like me either forget about ’em or lose ‘em, restaurants can afford to offer nice freebie promos on their holiday gift cards. Heck, some of these deals are so good we’re buying ‘em for ourselves. B.R. Guest Restaurants (Atlantic Grill, Bill’s Bar & Burger, Blue Fin, Blue Water Grill, Dos Caminos, Primehouse, [...]

Word just came in that a new NYC-based deal site (yes, another one) that goes by the name Tenka launched a new “Eat Free Week” campaign today. The best part is there’s really no catch here. All you need is a smartphone and a Facebook account (even if you don’t have one, you can set up [...]

It’s hard to believe Thanksgiving is just 10 days away. We love spending the holiday with our families in the city. We can’t quite host a dinner for 12+ people in our apartment, but thankfully there are lots of restaurants around the city that offer great meals and deals on Turkey Day. We enjoyed a great [...]

It’s great that so many hotels and resorts are harnessing social media platforms to connect with customers and grow and develop their brands. On the local front, hotels like The Bryant Park Hotel, Hotel Gansevoort, The Standard, The London, Essex House and The Roosevelt are among the more prolific hotel Twitter users (you can follow [...]

I can’t help but salivate everytime I think about the lamb burger Jill and I had at The Breslin (Ace Hotel; 20 W. 29th St) this past weekend. Even as I write this, a small pool of dribble is forming on my keyboard. April Bloomfield is no stranger to amazing burger creations. Her gorgonzola-topped beef burger at [...]

We’re big fans of the Sunday Supper. They give restaurants and chefs an opportunity to slow down from the hustle bustle of the Friday and Saturday night service and let loose a bit with some off-the-menu items and drink specials. Our favorites are the Sunday Butcher’s Table in the Bar Room of Charlie Palmer’s Aureole ($49/person; unlimited wine [...]
