Our first rosé in 2010!
If you’re like us, there are few things more exciting than the first few outdoor rosés of the year. Nothing screams summer and good times
like rosé. Last Saturday was the perfect day for that. It was sunny and warm in NYC and it was the kind of day that makes you

Last night’s pairing surprised us more than anything we’ve experienced so far this year. It involved Italian wine, a homemade pizza and a CD we hadn’t heard in years. It all started back in 2005…

I am in love with food businesses that come to life because of an appreciation of the simple life and a respect for culinary traditions. As a home cook and supporter of all things “boutique,” I totally understand that need to bow to how food was made and shared decades ago. Emma Bowen started Dulcinea

In Honor of ‘Sex and the City: The Movie’

by Maggie Battista

I’ve been debating how to honor the new Sex and the City film as it hits theaters this week. Why honor such a silly movie on a food blog? Well, duh! If you don’t know, SATC didn’t just bring fame to fancy shoes and pink drinks. SATC brought recognition to the West Village, its

Food-Trip: Brooklyn, New York

by Maggie Battista

My husband’s job may be sending him to Brooklyn, New York sometime before the close of 2007. This news is not as exciting for him as it is for me. I am one of the biggest fans of NYC; I grew up 15 minutes outside of Manhattan and then lived in Manhattan during my early
