| | | | | | Swimster sent me the once-in-a-blue-moon e-mail that he's famous for. He was coming to New York for a week on business and wanted to see me one night for dinner. To any new readers, Swimster is the ex-man. If we've been broken up for two years, is he still considered an ex? I'm going to say yes sinc... | | | | | | If you've been reading this blog at all consistently, you'll know that many of my dining adventures take place with the faithful dining triumvirate: J, the bro, and I. This past Friday, however, the triumvirate became a quadrumvirate, as my brother's "lovely date" (to borrow an apt phrase ... | | | | | | Here is some food porn for your viewing pleasure bright and early this Saturday morning: Crispy Pork Terrine topped with Fried Eggs, craftbar, Brunch menu *wink craftbar 900 Broadway Between W 19th and 20th Phone: 212-461-4300 | | | | | | Craftbar is Craft's informal sister-restaurant, where Chef Tom Colicchio applies the same philosophy of simple food derived from the finest ingredients, to casual dining.I've seen Tom Colicchio as head judge of the reality cooking show, Top Chef. I didn't know much about his cooking style but I gues... | | | | | | With a name like Craft, you'd better be sure your dishes are conceived and presented with great care. | | | | | | Craftbar Went to Craftbar on Friday night for a quick bite before checking out the Allman Brothers at the Beacon Theater(disappointing concert by the way...possibly one of the worst of more than 20 Allman Brothers shows I've been to). I sat at the bar and immediately noticed the difference since ... | | | | | | I thoroughly enjoyed my meal at CraftbarCraftbar, the casual sister restaurant to Craft. It's a great central location to meet a friend (that friend being Chrissy) to catch up. You can have a full meal or snack on a wide selection of meats, cheeses, snacks, bruschettas, and of course choose from a l... | | | | | | It’s just after 4 p.m., and that means it’s time to play Two for Eight. We just asked nine restaurants the best time they can squeeze a couple in for dinner; you need only make your chosen reservation. (As always, we make the calls but don’t guarantee the results.) Today: Danny Meyer/Tom Colicchio... | | | | | | Every week, we take our turn with Lady Luck on the BruniBetting odds as posted by Eater. Just for kicks, we track Eater’s bet too, and see who is better at guessing what the unpredictable Bruni will do. We track our sins with an imaginary $1 bet every week.The Line: After last week’s gross derelicti... | | | | | | Today’s review is a bit of a snoozer, confirming our hypothesis that Frank Bruni is bored. He arrives at the correct ratings for Craftbar and Craftsteak (one and two stars, respectively), but he doesn’t have much passion for either restaurant. Maybe he banged it out on his laptop in between naps on ... | | | |
