(continued)
These are some of the cool restaurants we went to during my brief stay in New York. My gourmet international friends stayed longer than I did, so they went to more.
Eat.
The Standard Grill - Meatpacking District
Hello! it's 4pm, and we are a bit hungry. Bring us the hamburguers and french-fries (recommended),
and a cobb salad, please!
Hola! son las 4pm y tenemos hambre. Pedimos las hamburguesas con papas fritas y ensaladas
The Standard Grill, where you eat well and watch the young and the hip crowds playing ping-pong in the adjacent patio
Buena comida y gente canchera jugando al ping pong en el salon de al lado
Puppy salt and pepper shakers!! Kiss!!
Salero y pimentero de perritos. Besitos!!
The floor made of pennies. Our black ballerinas
El piso, hecho de monedas
Le Pain Quotidien - ABC Carpet and Home
Magda and George had soft-boiled organic eggs with bread, dip, dip. I loved the egg holders, very british. I had the organic steel-cut oatmeal with berries pictured above. Marian had fruit. The tea and coffee came in huge cups
La comida aca es casi toda organica. Las chicas comieron "huevos pasados por agua" y pan, yo avena con frutos del bosque y marian, fruta. Todas, te o cafe con leche que vinieron en unos bowls enormes
Sleepy face! Taken from an i-phone. This restaurant is connected to the super-exciting ABC Carpet and Home store, so we went there after. Too bad it was a Sunday, we missed the Union Square farmers market down the street.
Que cara de dormida! Este restaurant esta conectado con ABC Carpet and Home, una de mis tiendas preferidas en NY. Fuimos ahi y como era domingo, nos perdimos el Union Square Farmer's Market que se hace en la otra cuadra y me encanta
Fonda Nolita - Nolita
While we waited for our table at Cafe Habana, we walked around Nolita. This garage is a Mexican restaurant, Fonda Nolita, complete with a decorated Volkswagen car that sells famous Tacombi Mexican tacos. A very cute spot on Elizabeth Street!
Haciendo tiempo en Nolita, caminamos por Elizabeth St. donde esta este garage devenido restaurant, venden burritos Tacombi desde la camioneta VW, estacionada en el interior... interesante
Cafe Habana - Nolita
At Cafe Habana the corn on the cob order is a must... unique and deliciousss!!
En Cafe Habana hay que pedir los choclos... los preparan de forma original y deliciosa!!
The fish tacos were not a success
No pidan los tacos de pescado
Strolling to Soho from Nolita neighborhood for dessert...
Bueno ahora, para el postre, vamos hacia Soho...
Pinkberry - Soho
Freshness! Frozen yogurt with fruit and chocolate on top... not too sweet. mmmm
Frescura! Yogur helado con fruta y chocolatitos... no muy dulce. mmmm
Clinton St. Baking Company - Lower East Side
The long wait for a table turned our breakfast into brunch. With George, we shared pancakes with blueberries and eggs benedict on bread. The milkshake lived up to its fame, it was chocolate for me!
Esperamos anios por una mesa en este muy concurrido lugar para desayunar. Asi que hicimos un brunch, con George compartimos una mega torre de panqueques y arandanos y unos egg benedict. Habia que probar el famosisimo milkshake - batido de helado, asi que.. uno de chocolate para mi!
Pastis - Meatpacking District
Best dressed restaurant: I thought this girl looked lovely with her tutu skirt and matching cashmere sweater
En este restaurant todos lucen muy bien vestidos. Me encanto en conjunto tutu y cashmere de esta chica, completo con la colita hacia el costado
Pastis is where the well-dressed meet. The scene at the bar from our table.
La escena de los bien vestidos de la barra desde nuestra mesa
We agreed that the food at Pastis was surprisingly terrible, as the cocktails. This couple probably thinks so too... sitting across from us, the man reminded me of a Transylvanian count, count Dracula, hair parted in the middle and gelled to the sides, stiff buttoned up shirt, expensive sweater, intriguing demeanor, impeccable manners. Anyways....
La comida en Pastis, un desastre! Los cocktails, muy malos tambien. Asi que hablemos de la gente, eso si valio la pena mirar. Este hombre de la mesa de al lado me intrigo. Parecia un conde, podria ser un conde Dracula moderno. El pelo peinado raya al medio, engominado, modales impecables, serio, con camisa almidonada y abotonada, sueter costosisimo... en fin
Mercer Kitchen - Soho
Mercer Kitchen is
the best!!! It was hard to get a table without a reservation but worth the effort! I forgot to take my camera; everything looked amazing as always. We ordered
pasta with a mushroom sauce and a pizza, and a
mozzarella burrata to start. We had the best time. I
love it here!!
Me encanta Mercer Kitchen! Nos costo conseguir mesa, para variar encaramos sin reserva, pero valio la pena el intento. Comimos barbaro, unas pastas, pizzas, y muzzarela burrata. Hay siempre buen ambiente, el lugar es divino, el servicio impecable. Un buen restaurant. Es lo mas!
Macao - Tribeca
This restaurant is also a very cool night club. Once Magda got us past the velvet rope, we were greeted by a friendly hostess who did her best to get us a table. We opted for the bar instead, went downstairs, checked out the decor - including an interesting corner with antique phallic objects and photos - and headed out to Mercer Kitchen.
Magda nos llevo a este restaurant-boliche de duenos brasileros creo. Me gusto mucho
