For Canada Day weekend I decided to head down to New York for a bit of shopping, eating and theatre-watching.  Of course after combing some of my favourite NYC resources I came up with a list of places to try and list of places to re-visit.  Detailed posts to come on some of the restaurants over the next week or so.

Here’s where I ate…

Motorino (full review to come) – I can’t go to NYC without having some pizza. This place in the East Village (and Brooklyn) has a great $12 lunch special.

Luke’s Lobster (full review to come) – This place has been getting a lot of buzz for their lobster rolls. It didn’t disappoint.

A Taste of Seafood – My go-to fried fish spot in Harlem. Their sides are also amazing. Gotta have the mac n cheese and the fried okra.

Locanda Verde (full review to come) – Andrew Carmellini’s new spot in Tribeca. Went for brunch. Gorgeous space. Would like to move in.

Babbo (full review to come) – No words. Okay, maybe a few. Mario Batali’s Washington Square gem that’s been around for a while.  AMAZING meal and fantastic service. Might have to revisit during every trip.

Dos Caminos Soho – A throwback brunch pick! Recent visits have disappointed but they’ve changed the brunch menu a bit and I had a really great meal.

Empanada Mama (full review to come) – this place brings back memories of babysitting. I branched out from my usual picks and had some good eats!

    How do you have time to EAT and SHOP and go to the THEATRE.
    You clearly have accomplished the art of multi tasking.
    What a great blog entry.
    Thanks for sharing.

    I would love to eat those corn flour empanadas from Empanada Mama. I haven’t had one of those things for over 6-7 years. It looks delicious. Mouth watering. Now I need to know if anyplace here makes some gluten-free delight.
