Istanbul Fish & Kabob 1725 Emmons Avenue Brooklyn, NY 718 368-3587 There seems to be a spate of Turkish restaurants that have turned up lately, unfortunately not all are up to the task. Istanbul is an older and better standard. While the restaurant Read More...

Alpha Fusion 169 Eigth Avenue New York, NY 212 687 8888 Alpha Fuson is trying way to hard and not doing the basics. A very narrow space all in black with at least four large tv’s going and very loud techno pop music---sorry not my style. Oh yes, Read More...

Padre Figlio 310 east 44 street NY, NY Going back to any restaurant including Padre Figlio, is really challenging. The restaurant is not only competing with other restaurants it is also competing with itself. Padre Figlio is still that very professional Read More...

Falai 68 Clinton Street New York, NY 10002 212 253 1960 If you have every watched “Top Chef” on TV and wondered how the dishes the chefs prepare would actually taste, go to Falai. We should have known this was no ordinary place when we saw Read More...

OxCart Tavern 1301 Newkirk Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11230 718 284 0005 It is really kind of unfair to review a restaurant on its second night, but I was hungry. Oxcart does not yet have draft beer, liquor or credit card machines, but this will come and there Read More...

Bunny Chow 74 Orchard Street New York, NY 212 260-5317 We may not think of it as such, but South Africa is a melting pot. There are English, Dutch, Native Africans and Indians. Remember, Ghandi got his start here and a Bunny Chow draws from all these Read More...
