Cocktail Of The Week (The Ramos Fizz)

The Ramos Fizz is an incredible drink that is easy to make and will surely impress whoever you’re planning to serve them to. They are ideal for brunch but can be served anytime of the day because of the ease of which they go down. The drink was created by Henry Ramos at Meyer’s Restaurant [...]

Simply The Best #23 (Amusement Park Rides)

When I was a kid and teenager there was nothing more exciting to me than getting to visit amusement parks. Whether it was the trip I took with my mother and friends to Disney World when I was 9 or so or going to Rye Play Land every other day when my parents rented a [...]

Market Of The Week (Dean & Deluca)

Dean & Deluca in Soho is easily one of my favorite markets in Manhattan if not my absolute favorite because of the coffee bar. It also may be the most expensive grocery in Manhattan if not Eli’s. Anytime I go to a new market one of the first things I like to check out is [...]

Beat Of The Day (Mannish)

There are a handful of West Coast groups that came out in the mid 90′s that completely broke away from the area’s cliche “gangsta rap” genre and were actually dope. I mean really dope.

Beat Of The Day (Jay Z)

I think that this is Hard Knock Life Volume 2′s most under rated joint. It wouldn’t have been half as dope if anyone other than Short was doing the chorus. “The lawyer I retained you said you leaking some things/ all that after a week in the bing?/ I’m mad at myself that I couldn’t [...]

Tony Dragonas Cart Part 3 (Grilled Chicken Sandwich)

Since my department moved to 59th street, Tony D’s cart has become  the office favorite. The staff seems to favor the steak, lamb and chicken platters and for whatever reason nobody’s tried their slamming burgers yet but I did convince one person to try the prosciutto and mozzarella sandwich. Don’t sleep on the grilled chicken sandwich [...]
