So, this is one of those deals that’s already a great deal even before the coupon. Every Thursday evening, Philip Marie (659 Hudson at W. 11th) offers a 4-course wine and food pairing for between $25-$32 (depends on wine selection). Each pour amounts to about 1/2 a glass of wine and the food courses are [...]

Just got an email today that Restaurant.com is again offering $25 restaurant gift certificates for only $2. I’m usually of the mindset that when something seems too good to be true, it is. So, when Restaurant.com had a similar offer back in December, I decided to test the waters and snatched up $25 gift certificates to each [...]

Restaurants and bars want you to break those resolutions asap and get back into your hedonistic eating, drinking and spending routines of yesteryear. To [...]

Over the past couple of years, we’ve had our fair share of splurge dinners involving copious amounts of shaved white truffles. But the white truffle tasting menus at restaurants like Babbo and Del Posto and single-dish truffle supplements at Per Se come at a very, very steep price. Last night, we made the trek to Sapori d’Ischia, tucked away in a sparse industrial [...]

IT’S WHITE TRUFFLE SEASON!! I’ve been hearing about the unbelievable $50 3-course white truffle tasting menu at Sapori d’Ischia (55-15 37th Ave., Woodside, Queens; 718-446-1500) for quite some time now. It’s back on Tuesday nights through early December starting tonight! Apparently, Sapori d’Ischia gets its Alba white truffles directly from the source, which is how [...]

This could be the worst name yet ever for the name of a special dinner. We got an email earlier from Zagat informing us about the Wine-lentines’s Seduction Dinner @ Brasserie Cognac. Yeah, you read that correctly. Wine-lentine’s. What we have here is an amazing deal with a horrendous name. The deal is $49 per [...]

No, we haven’t been to any of the Smorgas Chef’s in the city…but we seem to come across these Scandinavian-themed restaurants wherever we go.
