You'll find all things food here. Whether it's finding a new place to eat, a great ingredient to explore, or an entire recipe to try, I'll be talking about it. I am a complete "Food Nerd" and enjoy all of the above so hopefully you'll find something to inspire your love for eating and/or cooking. I mean, come on, we all have to eat right? Why not make it interesting and fun?
Today I had planned on writing about my new adventures with my organic produce share (more on that later) but I ended up having an amazing meal in NYC's Greenwich Village Saturday night that rocked my world! The Little Owl on the corner of Bedford and Grove Street in NYC falls in the top 5 meals I've had EVER IN LIFE! Each dish was perfectly seasoned and I would have licked each plate if I could have done so without completely embarrassing my husband.
We started with an appetizer of tagliatelle with warm tomatoes and shrimp in a light and tangy sauce. The kitchen kindly split the plate for us and gave us delicious bread to use for the broth. We both had fish dishes that were equally wonderful and the ingredients were as fresh as can be.
Dessert was not in the plan but when the beignets came out for another table the temptation was too great. Each beignet had a fresh raspberry at the center and was accompanied by a Nutella dipping sauce. It was only after the meal had begun that we realized the building we were in was the setting of the outside shot of the F.R.I.E.N.D.S. apartment. Added bonus!
I hope that if you are in NYC you try The Little Owl. I try and explore new restaurants when I go out but I am definitely going to have to go back and have another meal here again sometime soon. Just remember to make a reservation at least a few days before you plan on going. The restaurant itself is small and the tables are, not surprisingly, in high demand.
Happy Eats,
The Food Nerd
