Larry’s Birthday Weekend in NY

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

Hello from New York! Here’s some stuff from our weekend so far. Last night we had dinner at Buddakan:

We got a bunch of stuff to share, including “Taro Puff Lollipops” and “Hot Scallion Pancakes.” Yum!

Saturday morning we returned to Max Brenner for brunch. We tried one new dish, but had to get the chocolate peanut butter french toast again!


That night we went to Ono for dinner with a few of Larry’s friends. Good food, average service. Larry and Ben tried the “oyster shooters:”

After dinner we went to Aspen for drinks, which was a cool bar with a very hot fireplace. :) A bunch more of Larry’s friends met us out, as well as Ali!


More pics from the whole weekend here.

Happy Birthday L :)

Saturday Night at Chloe

Saturday, January 20th, 2007

After dinner at Cilantro we went out to Chloe in Adams Morgan. It was fun, until the catastrophe called getting your coat back from coat check (which ended 2 hours later, with Vinny escorted out, Melissa almost losing her wallet, and Nicole leaving without her coat). Pictures from before all that happened here.

New Years Weekend in NYC

Monday, January 1st, 2007

Very fun weekend for New Years in NY with Larry. Friday night we met Lisa and Mike for dinner at La Caverna (good italian food, cool decor) and then saw Dave Atell at Carolines (good, but not great). We had the best brunch ever on Saturday at Max Brenners (chocolate peanut butter french toast with bananas and strawberries!!!).

Saturday night we went to Sapa for dinner. Really great place – cool atmosphere and really cool food. It was “French Southeast Asian,” however it was very islandish tasting, which was a nice surprise. I also had a really good cucumber gin martini. After dinner, we got coffee and they brought us some fresh backed chocolate cookies!

For New Years Eve we went to a place called Calle Ocho on the Upper West Side with some of Larry’s friends. We had some really good food and lots of great drinks (my first mojito!).

We did lots of other stuff in between eating (shopping uptown, watching movies, and playing with cameras):

I’ll give you 1 million dollars if you can tell me what were doing here.

More pics from the weekend here. Happy 2007 everybody!
