If you can get a rez at Trivoli tavern and don’t mind spending a few bucks, it’s probably the coolest restaurant in the city right now

It’s aesthetically really cool but the menu is all over the place and the food was average at best

Did the omakase at Kai Zan recently and second generation last night which I really enjoyed. Otherwise tzuco, dear Margaret, and Kasama are favs (not the tasting at Kasama though)

I may be late to the game, but Tabu was wicked fun. Really tasty food, but great from an experience standpoint as well. Shareable fun cocktails, churro roulette, playful tacos, and nachos they break at the table with a maraca. The interior is gorgeous.

Time out market. Can’t go wrong here

Dear Margaret

I mean wasn’t the BEST, but on my list of best for casual but nice and big portions

Lure Fish Bar - great menu and service (sushi and meat options).

Forgot about STK (go earlier, it tends to get a little loud)

Love Cellar Door and Roister

Cavatappi in Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce

Tired of of the same old boring tomato marinara sauce? Try a roasted red pepper cream sauce!

Red bell peppers are roasted in the oven until sweet. It is then blended with caramelized onions, garlic, red pepper flakes, sun dried tomato paste, and cream into a silky, smooth and velvety sauce. Finish the sauce with a knob of butter and coat your pasta. Cavatappi works well here. Don’t forget to shave a little Pecorino Romano
