The Wheel of Taim

We didn't waste long before making our way up to Phase 2 of the High Line which opened this week. Much like the Yellow Brick Road, while the journey was fun- it was what was at the end that was the real treat. Tom Colicchio's The Lot on Tap awaited us there, full of yummy beer and food truck splendor.

On this visit we visited the Taim Mobile truck. Pictured here is the Falafal Platter which consisted of falafal balls, hummus, quinoa salad, israeli salad, pita, and sauces. Delicious! Especially when washed down with a nice cold beverage.

A Night in Brooklyn

Clover Club

My visiting friend had a friend in Brooklyn to catch up with and so off we went to experience some of the best Carroll Gardens has to offer. We started the night at Clover Club which I was instantly smitten by. Stepping through the door was like stepping back in time. I loved their dedication to classic cocktails and was tickled pink by the menu.

We discover Maoz

There's this crazy little vegetarian place in Union Square that we pass by, its interior is covered in white and bright green tile and its called "Maoz". Apparently it's a dutch word, but they sell falafels. Interesting. The big appeal though is the crazy salad bar with yum fixings that you can load up on your pita or bowl. They also have fresh squeezed carrot juice, making this place pretty healthy...that is until you go for the combo meal and get the mixed belgian & sweet potato fries.
