With a name inspired by the meta-con of being tricked while being tricked, Kansas City Shuffle surely ought to have some funny business going on. Instead, the refurbished industrial space ”“ a collaboration between owner Ben Sweeten and owner/executive chef Kayne Mordini ”“ has razzle-dazzle of all the right kinds. The space ”“ with past […]

It’s true, the name Mocan (pronounced “mo-chan”) & Green Grout is quite the mouthful but perhaps it’s a telling name since it’s a safe bet that yours will be willingly so when you visit this Canberra café. Mocan & Green Grout is part café, restaurant and designer bike maker serving up seasonal food with a […]

The phrase “dining experience” is one that you see thrown around in restaurant reviews all the time and we all think we know that it means until we get to have a real dining experience – like the one I was lucky enough to have last night with Wolvesmouth X NYC. Wolvesmouth is an underground […]

We were pretty excited when we found out our good friends Tim & Bri were getting married and I must admit I was even more excited when we found out it was going to be in Athens, Greece with an open invitation to crash part of their honeymoon in the Greek Islands ”“ Hello Grecian […]

I was certain I’d hate LA with its sprawling suburbs, endless driving and plastic people. And maybe I’d still hate to live there but as a New Yorker for the last almost-year without a proper holiday, a long weekend in LA was the perfect way to de-stress and re-energise. Sure, there are those LA cliché’s […]

1 / 1 ( 1 vote ) It’s probably impossible to distil all NYC restaurants down to the best 15, but I’m ambitious so I’m going to go ahead and do it anyway. Besides, it’s my blog so I can take it back if I change my mind. These restaurants are the top-15 that really […]

My latest obsession is with maintaining a clean and lean lifestyle. Thankfully all of the ladies in my life are on the same post-holiday health kick so it’s been a real group effort to start the year on a health high (we’ll forget the few momentary lapses we’ve had on a couple of the weekends […]

A couple weeks ago I was lucky enough to indulge in a girls-and-gay-best-friends weekend in Paris. The plan was to see and do as much as possible since one of the girls (Hoa) was a Paris virgin, but somehow we ended up spending most of our time at GBF’s place stuffing ourselves with foie gras […]

I jumped at the chance to spend this last weekend in Berlin with Mikee, who had been there all week schmoozing with industry folk at Bread & Butter. I was really in the mood for a dose of Berlin’s attitude; you know, cool, laid-back, edgy yet stylishly hedonistic ”“ the kind of attitude that cool […]
