Are you feelin lucky? We must have been walking in here without a reservation…Yet lucky we were, as the next party of two trying to come in was sent away. Don’t gamble. Make a reservation because you want to eat here. Zeller Bistro [Budapest, Izabella u. 38, 1077 Hungary] is […]

An ultimately killer sandwich, ya just can’t miss it when you’re in Budapest. Bors GasztroBar [Budapest, Kazinczy u. 10, 1075 Hungary] is located in the Jewish Quarter, packed with people inside and loitering around outside. There are only a handful of stools, and nowhere to speak about outside to take […]
Koleves [Budapest, Kazinczy u. 37, 1075 Hungary] translates to stone soup, which might put a traditional notion in your head, but scratch that. This place is relaxed and pretty hip, in the Jewish quarter which turns into a total party scene at night. It was our first meal in Hungary and […]
Sweet…sweet…so sumptuously Sweet Mimi’s [47 Phila St, Saratoga Springs, NY 12866]. Come for brunch, they’ve truly got it going on in this cozy little joint. I got the bacon pancakes, because I’m a sucker for anything sweet and salty. They’re pretty. They’re delicious. They’re worth it. Folded into their homemade […]
Torvehallerne [Frederiksborggade 21, 1360 København K, Denmark] is different from your typical city market. It’s small, quiet, hygge, and slightly high end, perfectly suited for Copenhagen. It doesn’t open until 10am, 11 on Sundays. There are two little buildings that hold just a couple of vendors; one has more food […]
A smorgasbord (not to be confused with smørrebrød) of international delights rolled into a canal side warehouse, Copenhagen Street Food [PapirØen, Trangravsvej 14, 7/8, 1436 København K, Denmark] is a great kitschy place to hang out, grab a drink, and enjoy a tasty meal. Walk yourself up and down the […]
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and when that day is jam-packed with a travel itinerary it is important to be well fed from the get go. Since we were based out of Nørrebro we spent a good deal of time on Jægersborggade Street, a short block […]
Smørrebrød is to Denmark what hamburger is to America, an essential food item to eat while visiting the country. What is a smørrebrød, you ask? It translates to ‘open faced sandwich,’ and these bad boys come in many shapes and sizes, and can be found in a variety of eateries […]
What does the Grateful Dead, Anthony Bourdain, and a killer fish taco have in common? A trip to Mexicali Blue in New Paltz [87 Main Street New Paltz] of course! I thoroughly enjoyed my visit here, but be warned, this place is tiiiiny. We had just finished a hot hike […]
There is no White Castle in the Capital Region, but if you’re looking to get some sliders to fill the crave look no further than Slidin’ Dirty in Troy [9 1st St, Troy, NY 12180]. This place has really taken off, and I can see why. The main attraction here […]
I am like a moth to The Flammerie [7 Hudson St, Kinderhook, NY 12106]. This little restaurant nestled at the edge of town is bustling with action, and for good reason. If you don’t make a reservation you probably won’t get into the back room, try your luck at the […]
Healthy, funky, fun, and comfy: Lunch at Meli-Melo in Greenwich, Connecticut [362 Greenwich Ave, Greenwich, CT 06830] was a perfect post-hike meal! The menu in this happy yellow space is great! It’s packed with a variety of sweet and savory crepes, salads, soups, sandwiches, juices, and desserts. It’s hard to […]
I don’t normally make plans to eat at the mall, but Sammy D’s Cafe is a joint to make exceptions for. We had just hiked Buck Mountain and were hungry and in the mood for something hearty. Located in the Lake George outlets [Coleman Factory Outlets 1454 U.S. 9 Lake […]
Searching for severely scrumptious sweets in Soho? Look no further than Dominique Ansel Bakery [189 Spring St, New York, NY 10012] where the pastries look as good as they taste. Hop on line and try to decide what you are going to get, no easy task. This joint is known […]
Walk into this little Soho establishment and you will enter a world different from your own where men and women are walking about in traditional garb and cultural references are abound. If you are looking for unique drink and food in NYC, Korchma Taras Bulba [357 W Broadway, New York, […]
