Soba-Ya, East Village | Culinary Creep
https://theculinarycreep.wordpress.com/2013/07/06/soba-ya-east-village
Soba-Ya, East Village. July 6, 2013. A crowded entrance of people is misleading as to the wait time; after no more than 2 minutes we’re beckoned and lead to our table. Staff are almost all authentically Japanese as are most of the customers. The inside is traditional Japanese, clean wooden booths separated by a low wooden divider while white opaque panels are backlit with warm light. Ignoring my run in with the grate yam, Soba-ya is brilliant at authentic Japanese soba. The flavours are clean and sim...

Sao Mai, East Village | Culinary Creep
https://theculinarycreep.wordpress.com/2013/05/27/sao-mai-east-village
Sao Mai, East Village. May 27, 2013. A tall sweet glass of lychee drink, filled with the round bouncy orbs of the tinned variety added just sweetness that I wasn’t craving a dessert at the end. If it is truly Pho you’re after, below is the menu. For the record, the photo of Duncan’s Pho, came out all poor even by my standards. Sao Mai is a pretty under-rated gem in the East Village. Service was a bit slow and scattered, but I’m happy to over look that for a great bun cha. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Schapiro’s, LES | Culinary Creep
https://theculinarycreep.wordpress.com/2013/08/25/schapiros-les
Schapiro’s, LES. August 25, 2013. The Lower East Side during the day is vastly different once the sun sets. On a lazy Sunday morning, the streets are largely empty, save for a few shop keepers readying their businesses for the day ahead. The only real signs of life come from the cafes and restaurants serving brunch to those who have managed to venture out. The food is American-Jewish. Kugal, pastrami and latkes are offered at brunch, but it’s the Shrimp and grits that catch my eye. Enter your comment here.

Cafe Select, Soho | Culinary Creep
https://theculinarycreep.wordpress.com/2013/08/18/cafe-select-soho
Cafe Select, Soho. August 18, 2013. The inside is charming with a ceiling covered with fairy lights, but during the day and particularly in Summer, the prime seats are the 4 small tables out the front; seats arranged to create the perfect view for people watching. Cocktails are ideal for the last vestiges of Summer; various combinations of prosecco, mint and lemon slip down all too easily. Http:/ www.cafeselectnyc.com/. One thought on “ Cafe Select, Soho. August 18, 2013 at 7:40 PM. This looks so good!

Calexico, Lower East Side | Culinary Creep
https://theculinarycreep.wordpress.com/2013/06/27/calexico-lower-east-side
Calexico, Lower East Side. June 27, 2013. So where have I been eating? If you’re still reading, I do finally talk about the restaurant in the title. Calexico first came on my radar after reading Bionic Bites’ post. I mentally filed the name away in the back of my head and SPOILER ALERT: my favourite bowl of food in NYC so far has come from here. In case you hadn’t picked up on it yet, both Duncan and I really love Calexico. I’m already scheming ways to get us back there this weekend, but ...8211; I hate ...

The Smith, East Village | Culinary Creep
https://theculinarycreep.wordpress.com/2013/05/20/the-smith-east-village
The Smith, East Village. May 20, 2013. My indoctrination to American life has begun. Naturally food is the starting point as it should be. Brunch is this awful bastion of life in New York. It’s not just a meal; it’s an event. Come Sunday, the majority of restaurants switch from their usual menus and offer brunch options only. Reservations are generally not taken and because no one in New York eats a weekend breakfast at. Http:/ www.thesmithnyc.com/. One thought on “ The Smith, East Village. You are comme...

https://theculinarycreep.wordpress.com/2013/07/20/the-meatball-shop-les
The Meatball Shop, LES. July 20, 2013. Americans generally have a bad rep when it come to diet. Birthplace of burgers, fries, and known for the wonderous ways that bacon can be worked into each and every meal; it’s no wonder that their rep for nutrition is less than stellar. While I can’t speak for the situation in middle-America, I’ve found that New York in general does really great salads. Http:/ www.themeatballshop.com/. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Momofuku Noodle Bar, East Village | Culinary Creep
https://theculinarycreep.wordpress.com/2013/05/05/momofuku-noodle-bar-east-village
Momofuku Noodle Bar, East Village. May 5, 2013. A longtime fan of David Chang and in particular the Lucky Peach magazine he co-founded with Peter Meehan, Momofuku Noodle bar is actually my first opportunity to try his food. Wanting to start things slowly, and not overly hungry, we skipped over the famed pork buns and went straight for ramen. Things I learnt about New York this week:. 8211; Unlike London, there is no set rule for standing on the left of escalators. This infuriates me to no end. I signed u...
