Good Eats

I haven't done a Good Eats post in awhile.....so I'm gonna attempt to remember some of the good places I've dined at over the past couple months ....I just love sharing good food with y'all =)

I had my birthday dinner here, and everything (and I mean everything) was good!

"The menu is a seamless blend of Mediterranean and Latin influenced small and large plates of seasonal specialties."

This restaurant wasn't at all what I expected it to be when I walked in, but it ended up being a really low-key place to chill with some good pizza and sandwiches.

A few of us came here for a wine tasting class, but we were more impressed and blown away by how good the food was . . .

"Vintage focuses on wine and the food that it complements. We offer over 60 wines by the glass and another twenty or so by the bottle. Our wines represent regions, countries and varietals from around the world chosen for their taste and character."

And finally I'll end with something sweet...

I was in NYC for a weekend taking some classes and right across from Bryant Park was the Crumbs Bakery . . . just awesomely delicious cupcake concoctions :)
