Daisy May’s BBQ

Sometimes life just doesn’t go quite the way you planned – so it was one December Friday when TC and I headed to Philly and instead wound up at Daisy May’s in Hell’s Kitchen.  As you can see from that post I linked, we both went earlier in the year and found it lacking.  However, this time around, with our creamed spinach, mac&cheese, cheesy corn, collard greens, sweet & sticky ribs and dry rub… we were both really pleased.  I really enjoyed my cheesy corn, collard greens, and sweet & sticky ribs, while TC liked his dishes as well.  The [...]

Bon Chon

As you probably already know, we at Feisty Foodie love Korean Fried Chicken, particularly at Bon Chon. A couple months back, InBundles came out with a deal of $20 for $40 worth of food from the Bon Chon near the Empire State Building. After I bought the deal, I saw the fine print that it was basically only available if you go before 5 pm. With the proliferation of deal websites out there, I have come to the realization that these deals can end up being the proverbial albatross around my neck. It seems most of the deals I purchase, [...]

ChaPa’s

One of those super rainy days in December, I told DLS I felt like eating pho… that Vietnamese noodle soup that to me, is just about the best thing you can eat on a cold rainy day.  I realized that though CheeeeEEEEse has mentioned ChaPa’s many times as being his new pho place since moving to the neighborhood, I’d yet to try it, so I decided we should go there – right down the block from Totto Ramen.  (Even on this crazy rainy night where it poured to the point we were both soaked walking 10 blocks, the line was [...]

Le Bernardin

When I mentioned that I was disappointed I probably wouldn’t be able to visit Le Bernardin before Michael Laiskonis, the much lauded executive pastry chef, left at the end of 2011 – many say that he’s the best pastry chef in all of New York, possibly the country – DLS made a few phone calls and told me he was taking me to Le Bernardin.  Yes, I am truly blessed and lucky to have people in my life who want nothing more than to see me happy.  What girl could say no to that?  So on an unseasonably warm, late [...]

Bull Moose Saloon

On a Sunday afternoon, after indulging in lots of dim sum (post to come by TT!), we found ourselves wandering up from Chinatown to Hell’s Kitchen to watch football in a local bar – Bull Moose Saloon, to be exact.  Though I was still pretty stuffed from dim sum, Cheese and TC apparently were ready to eat again!  Cheese’d mentioned to me the BLT being a great deal – for $6.95, you get a decent sized sandwich with a mound of fries – and he ordered this.  He said it was good as usual (he’d ordered it before).  TC and [...]
