Stuffed coined the term “Cruff” to describe their toasted, glazed donut stuffed with ice cream & toppings. This trend started out in LA and Stuffed was the first to open this concept in NYC! Their Thai Ice Tea ice cream flavor is one of my favorite ice cream flavors of all time. It’s just SO …
Mighty Quinn’s Barbecue
This place is always consistently good which is nothing to take lightly considering they have multiple locations in Manhattan and Brooklyn. And seriously, it is 100% worth it to splurge the ~30 dollars on the Brontosaurus Rib because it is the BEST thing on the menu. Also, the dirty fries are like crack to me…I …
Mimi Cheng’s

This place is conveniently located across from some great bars in NYC so I’ll often find myself here late night for some fancier-than-normal slices!

Jun-Men Ramen
I wasn’t impressed with most of the appetizers (I tried the pork buns, crispy shrimp and edamame). But the ramen was good–average, and good sized portions

Emily
This place is known for its Detroit-style pizza but do NOT forget to order the burger it’s one of the BEST in NYC! The first location in Williamsburg was such a hit that they opened a second (thank the pizza and burger gods!) in West Village.

Lenwich
This is one of my ultimate go-to places for lunch when I’m craving a good sandwich and don’t want to settle for your average bodega deli sandwich. I also love stopping here and getting a sandwich for the plane before I had to the airport.
