It’s late December and we all know what that means… no school, but not in the majority of local yeshivas. Yeshiva break will have to wait until January. When it comes time to look for a warmer place to go on vacation for a week or so, many from the tristate area try to find places that have access to kosher food and minyanim to make everything a bit more convenient.
My wife and I had to be in Midtown Manhattan yesterday evening and decided to have an early dinner. When checking out our options, we found that many places don’t open until 5:00 or 6:00pm. Luckily for us, La Brochette - Kosher Steakhouse and Sushi Bar opened at 2pm.
My wife and I trekked into the city (you know, Manhattan?) to Noi Due Carne for our anniversary last week. First, let me say that they were super helpful with the reservation on the phone after I had an issue with the online system confirming our time. Their system is divided into indoor and outdoor. My wife and I chose the outdoor (won’t eat inside currently) and the seating was as nice as it could be on a NYC sidewalk. Also of note, all COVID precautions were adhered to with staff wearing masks inside and outside.
My wife and I finally made it out to a restaurant after having our first baby. We made our way to Teaneck and La Cucina Di Nava for some great upscale dairy cuisine straight outta Italy.
For those following along, after much deliberation, my wife and I chose to go to Prime Bistro for my birthday. We were going to go last Sunday, but it rained on Long Island and they didn’t have covered outdoor seating (we won’t eat inside).
Stopped in yesterday for an early dinner at Narruto Bowl in Teaneck.
I went to a dairy restaurant last night. It was in a place I wasn’t familiar with, so I blindly posted asking for suggestions instead of searching the group on my own. I’ve never had a worse experience.
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I had to change the plans I'd made for my wife and I to celebrate her birthday on Sunday. We didn't have a lot of time and had to be in Queens, so I decided to go with Ganey Orly for lunch.
Went to Fireside last night with my wife. Here's what we ordered...
