Cousin Time!

n


My cousin Liz (AKA Tien) came to visit for the weekend and what an awesome time it was. Liz isn't big into shopping, clubbing, or drinking, but she is definitely into eating good food. This was her 2nd time visiting me and we made this trip into a food tour. We had a list of to-eats and we crossed off just about everything.

The best thing we ate: lobster and crab rolls from Luke's Lobster
The worst thing we ate: we missed out on the $24.95 Sunday lobster dinner at Mermaid Inn

And all the food in between:
* Hand-pulled noodles from Tasty Hand-Pulled Noodles in Chinatown
* Cheese slice from Bleeker St. Pizza in West Village
* Vegan carrot cake with lychee tea from Teany in L.E.S.
* French macaroons (green tea, pistachio, and raspberry) from Koryodong in Korea Town
* Liege waffle with spekuloos and whipped cream from The Waffle Truck in Tribeca
* Korea fried chicken from Bon Chon (we had this twice!)
* An assortment of mussels and oysters from Flex Mussels in West Village
* Gelato from Love Gelato Co. in West Village
* Pickles from Chelsea Market in Chelsea
* Banh Mi sandwiches from Saigon Shack in West Village
* Lobster mac and fried brussel sprouts from Mermaid Inn in East Village

We already have the next places to eat planned for the next trip!
