The West Village of New York City is my favorite neighborhood in the entire world. Really. And this new little gastropub solidifies the neighborhood’s standing with me.

The Highlands is a Scottish-owned and designed boutique restaurant that has stolen my heart. Now if only I could get me to NYC to give it a try. Most of the reviews on Yelp are dazzling, though some claim there’s a bit too much hype around the spot. Regardless, the design is divine. Look at the darling interiors over at Remodelista. Highlands, 150 West 10th Street (at the corner of Waverly), NYC, 10014.

If the Highlands hype is too much for you, aim to hit Extra Virgin. They have consistently great reviews, and a very sweet bar. I’m in love with their wine list, and sampled quite a bit of it when I visited with my fabulous cousin Jessica last year.

    I finally made it to Highlands – great menu and devine food.. the lamb sauasage rolls are to die for! Cracking cocktails and the odd kilt are a fabulous addition to this cool find in the West Village.
