So after not eating outdoors for a while a friend of mine asked me join her at Novita which is located at 102 E. 22nd Street. Novita serves classical Italian cooking and we were lucky to get seated in one of their outdoor bubbles. So I decided to order Chicken Paillard with roasted potatoes and…
So the same friend that I went down to Pine Street with, contacted me and said that we could eat lunch in a yurt down on West 4th Street at the Fairfox. I said “What the heck” and found myself on the train headed for downtown. I took the 1 to Christopher Street, walked 2…

Well, I must admit that I thought until last March 13th, that I’d be in Florida visiting my folks and my brother and sister-in-law for the Christmas Week and New Years. But as fate would have it, I wasn’t there and here comes New Years Eve which is alsoLol my birthday. Not one to sit…
Met a friend for dinner only this time we ate inside with the new rule of indoor dining at 25%. We met at a new neighborhood restaurant named Chito Gvrito where they serve Georgian food. I knew that the meal would be on the heavy side but it was cold out and I was ready.…
Another socially distanced meeting with friends at Follia which is located at 179 Third Avenue and 17th Street.

I ordered Brussel Sprouts made with…
Last week I met a friend at Brasserie Cognac East which is located at 963 Lexington Avenue which is the corner of East 70th Street. As I approached the restaurant I immediately felt a “je ne sais quoi” feeling that I was somewhere on a Paris Street. Now I really only wanted dessert so I…

I discovered an opportunity to take a socially distanced Hudson River Fall Foliage Cruise. It was run by Circle Line Sightseeing at Pier 83 which is located at 12th Avenue and West 42nd Street.

So while in Kuztown, PA, visiting the Crystal Cave we decided to have lunch in town at Pop’s Malt Shoppe. Oh my goodness, it was so reminiscent for me of when I was growing up and being a junior counselor in Moodus, Connecticut and going into town to hang out. It was just fun to…
