We had dinner with some friends last night, and they told us about Time Out NY Magazine’s list of the 100 best things they ate this past year. Since they publish a list, it seemed like a good goal would be to try to hit all their favorites from last year during this year.
Dinner was at Apiary, which was excellent. I had a pork loin with shaved Brussels sprouts and glazed Tokyo turnips. It was cooked perfectly and wasn’t too sweet. Donette had a black bass, that was very good as well. We’d absolutely go again.
After dinner, we decided to start working on the list, so we headed over to try the Bacon peanut brittle at Redhead, 349 E 13th St between First and Second Aves (212-533-6212). $5. It was a great balance of salty, sweet and just a little spicy. It was hard to stop eating. We recomend you give it a try, and be sure tell us what you think.
Somehow, I managed to get invited to an event at LeCirque this week, so I’ll have to try the cherry religieuse which is described as “a double-decker éclair filled with cherry custard,” sounds good.
Have you tried anything on the list? Let me know.
