/></a><br /><br />dieci在East Village。<br /><a name='more'></a><br /><br />東村裡的小街暗巷, 有家很不起眼的店叫dieci。用分類來說的話, dieci大概應該是在"每次都經過每次都想去每次都沒機會"的那一類, 於是今天好不容易終於找到機會。<br /><br />dieci的風格, 像是義大利的tapas小酒館混了日本風。裡面的侍者和廚師清一色是日本人, 在百分之九十充滿葡萄酒的酒單裡也默默出現sake和日本啤酒（日本風的堅持？！）。硬要比喻的話, 差不多就像是<a href="http://www.inotecanyc.com/">'inoteca</a>被日本人接手的感覺, 感覺很neat。<br /><br /><a

height="333" alt="Yellowtail tataki" /></a><br />這天晚上其實我們都沒很餓, 於是只點了兩道tapas share。圖為Yellowtail Tataki。<br /><br />週四晚上人其實不多（也可能是因為我們很早去的關係）, 店裡有個從廚房延伸出來的長吧台, 有種又chic又cozy的感覺。就今晚的感想, dieci還蠻適合四人左右的朋友聚會聊天。有機會下次再去！<br /><br /><br />[FYI]<br /><a href="http://www.dieciny.com/">dieci</a><br />228 E 10th St # A (btw 1 & 2 Ave.)<br />New York, NY 10003-7743 <br />- (212) 387-9545<br

href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704107204574471561810281526.html">David Chang</a>, 還有<a href="http://www.le-bernardin.com/">Eric Ripert</a>阿。紐約有的東西太多了, 所以有誰不重要, 重點是能不能超值阿（老實說, 紐約太多over-rated的事物了）。 <br /><br /><a name='more'></a><br /><br />為什麼是Jean-Georges？在紐約預算有限但又想去有米其林星星的餐廳, 這裡有傳說中紐約最超值米其林三星的prix-fixe lunch。<br /><br />好久以前去過<a href="http://yenspeaks.wordpress.com/2009/04/11/perry-street/">Perry Street</a>, <strike>還蠻喜歡的但也是沒有機會再去第二次</strike>（還真的去了第二次, 只能説怎麼跟第一次一樣都沒變）。Jean-Georges比想像中的還小很多, 基本上就是在Columbus Circle的川普大樓一樓（就是金光閃閃前面還有超人克拉克每日地球報那顆地球的大樓）。<br /><br />在紐約有很多一生可能只有一次的經驗, 對我來說 Jean Georges可能也算是其中之一。<br /><br />以下圖很多。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3822295674/"

Reservation</a>裡提過Spotted Pig之後, 就一直很想來位於西村這家極為熱門的店。 過了一年之後, 終於去了Spotted Pig。<a name='more'></a><br /><br />為了不想排隊, 只好在一個非常早的時間出現, 下午五點半。其實店一直都是開的, 只是五點半不到沒有供應晚餐而已。而帶位的人員也不知哪來的堅持, 一定要等到五點半才能讓我們入座, 即便整家店九成八都是空的。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3771332457/" title="Spotted Pig by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img

像是平常不會有機會吃到的這個Gnudi。為了搞清楚Gnudi到底是什麼, 還特地問了一下<a href="http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/343611">google大師</a>。Gnudi有點像是裡面包了Ricotta cheese的<a href="http://images.google.com/images?q=Gnocchi&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi">Gnocchi</a>（一般內餡是馬鈴薯）。Gnudi在義大利文的意思是nude的意思, 雖然不知道這兩者有什麼直接的關係。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3772728401/" title="Chargrilled Burger with Roquefort Cheese & Shoestrings by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img

cheese, 應該是喜歡的人很喜歡, 害怕cheese味道的應該會立即刮掉。旁邊一大圈的是細到不行的薯條。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3772729651/" title="Sheep’s Ricotta Gnudi with Brown Butter & Sage by hereiskaty, on

Brown Butter＆Sage。<br />又回到了這個Gnudi。它外觀其實還蠻像甜點的, 一直覺得他有種泡芙或者是某種日式甜點的感覺。但實際上完全不那回事, 外皮像是義大利麵皮, 但內餡卻是紮紮實實的Ricotta Cheese, 一兩顆還ok, 但一盤七顆真的有點太多（同一時間, 隔壁桌的女生瞬間秒殺了一整盤-傻眼-）。<br /><br />這家店似乎專長在一般不會出現在美國人菜單的東西, 像是動物內臟之類的。點菜的時候, 侍者非常熱情的解說他們當天的限定開胃菜, 她講了一大串, 內容大概是將豬的內臟有的沒的（基本上就是聽到會愣一下, 然後問自己敢吃這些東西嗎？）經過特殊的醃製, 接著再煙燻好幾天特製而成。老實說, 聽她解釋的時候整個有點毛起來就是了, 不過看她講得眉飛色舞的還是覺得很厲害, 最後我們當然沒點。<br /><br />店很小但服務還不賴, 要去要有排隊的心裡準備, 不然就是要像我們一樣一開店就衝去等門（笑）。至於十七塊的漢堡就見人見智了, 可能都是貴在那blue cheese（結果還把它撥掉=P）。 <br /><br />[FYI]<br /><a href="http://www.thespottedpig.com/">The Spotted Pig</a><br />314 W 11th St #

Cafe" /></a><br /><br />自從今年一月時趁著M來訪去了一次<a href="http://www.gramercytavern.com/">Gramercy Tavern</a>之後, 就對Tavern留下了莫名的<a href="http://eatersblockk.blogspot.com/2009/01/gramercy-tarven.html">好印象</a>, 而且還是過了一段時間後才開始念念不忘。<a name='more'></a><br /><br />但這篇跟Tavern沒什麼關係, 是要講跟Tavern隸屬於同一<a href="http://www.ushgnyc.com/">集團</a>下的另一家餐廳--<a href="http://www.unionsquarecafe.com/">Union Square Cafe</a>(USC)。<br /><br />會想去USC的原因不外乎就是: 1.它好像是個經典; 2. 它們最近在促銷, 有餐廳周的菜單。（原本想去Tavern的, 可是它們不知多久之前就已經被訂滿）結果看來USC也是很熱門, 最後訂到了個禮拜五下午兩點多的午餐時間。<br /><br />我們大概兩點到, 原本以為人會比較少, 沒想到餐廳外站滿了一堆等待帶位的客人（應該是walk-in沒有預約的）, 吧台也是坐滿了人（大家都跟我們一樣閒？！）。等不到十分鐘後我們就入座了。負責點菜的服務生帶著像是key上去的職業笑容, 態度很好服務也不錯。但重點不是他, 重點是上菜的那一個女生(?!), 基本上幾乎是用甩的把盤子放到桌上, 有種叫做離心力的東西差點把朋友點的Bruschetta甩出去, 當然又滑回來, 不然還真精彩。 之後上主菜時, 雖然沒有這麼誇張但仍然可以感受到她的手勁不小...讓人訝異的是, 盤子上有非常明顯抹布（？！）擦拭過的水漬痕跡（這應該要說什麼呢...）。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3756425889/" title="Housemade Mozzarella and Tomato Bruschetta

/>番茄和Mozzarella的Bruschetta。番茄很新鮮, 味道還不錯。盤子上原本其實沒那麼多醬汁, 是離心力作祟（差不多滑了有五公分這麼遠我想）。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3756456403/" title="Slow Roasted Pork Shoulder alla Porchetta

/>Capellini with Flaked Cod, Broccoli Rabe, Garlic, Chili, White Wine and Rustic Breadcrumbs.<br />這個該怎麼説呢, 這盤capellini在加了一種東西之後, 味道整個就非常的台式風格（差不多就是可能可以在台灣某些好一點的義式簡餐店吃到的感覺）。就是那個Broccoli Rabe, 有點像油菜不知道正確的中文叫什麼, （但相信你一定在自助餐店或者是你家的晚餐桌上看過）, 所以<a href="http://images.google.com/images?q=Broccoli%20Rabe&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi">請看圖</a>, 你懂的。這種菜有點苦苦的, 整盤麵都被這菜的味道蓋掉了, 所以這應該叫"大人的Capellini" ？！<br /><br />必須誠實的説, 基本上服務在心中的比重通常是大於食物很多的, 尤其是在這種地方（畢竟至少15%的服務費總要讓人給的心甘情願）。當然, 那種便宜好吃來來去去的店就不在此列。所以, 去過就好, 沒去過也不可惜。深深覺得應該可以開個category叫做 "Overrated NYC" 之類的, 身歷其境的為各位體驗各式各樣overrated的紐約（我說説而已的）。<br /><br /><br />[FYI]<br /><a href="http://www.unionsquarecafe.com/">Union Square Cafe</a><br />21 E.16th Street<br />New York, NY 10003<br /><br />[googlemaps

height="500" width="333" /></a><br /><br />在今年無限延長的<a href="http://nycgo.com/restaurantweek">紐約餐廳週</a>, 終於吃到了有iron chef加持的Morimoto。除了餐廳有iron chef加持外, 連餐廳的設計都是出於清水模大師安藤忠雄之手,整個內裝呈現一種閃閃發亮的未來感,但卻又不失日本料理店的內斂氣息。餐廳位於Chelsea Market的隔壁（在Craftsteak的對面）, 相較於內裝的閃閃發亮, 外部算是極為低調。<a name='more'></a><br /><br />餐廳週的午餐pri-fixe,是$24包括三道course（前菜, 主菜及甜點）。基本上Morimoto一般中午的lunch box set好像也是差不多這個價錢（可能還稍微低一點）。通常餐廳週的套餐份量可能都會小一號, 但Morimoto主菜的份量應該是沒有調整過, 比如說7-oz的Braised Black Cod！套餐中附的甜點（連名字都忘了）, 出來有點令人傻眼, 依稀記得應該是極為迷你的巧克力/餅乾三枚。<br /><br /><br /><a

不過實在是很想來）。週一的中午時分, 餐廳裡多半是商業人士, 像是來談生意。<br /><br />入座之後, 開始送水送麵包（如上圖）, 橄欖麵包, 裡面可以吃到一整粒的橄欖...接著就開始點菜了。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3193349398/" title="smoked trout by

大概就是入口即化的程度。但這一整片吃完其實有點膩。 <br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3194952139/" title="Striped Bass by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3387/3194952139_6cfae5fb04.jpg" alt="Striped Bass" width="500" height="333" /></a><br />Striped Bass。Bass與水菜(Mizuna)及sunchoke結合在一起的好滋味還有細碎的mussel參雜在其中。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3194952675/" title="Grilled Sturgeon by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3506/3194952675_aeefc5214f.jpg" alt="Grilled Sturgeon" width="333" height="500" /></a><br />Grilled Sturgeon(鱘魚)。 和Brussel sprouts及Chestnut組合在一起的感覺很好, 尤其那chestnut還真不賴。<br /><br />食物之外,這裡的服務也非常好, waitress很有耐心的解答我們對菜單的問題。當問到能不能拍照時, 也非常親切的說歡迎拍照, 無論是食物或者是餐廳內部擺設（這還真是難得,很多餐廳都對相機非常不友善的,即便不開閃光只對食物按快門）。<br /><br />食物當然是在一般水準之上, 但也還不到物超所值的地步就是了。只能說什麼樣的價格定位給你什麼樣的服務及食材品質, 如果下次要再來造訪, 可能要看有沒有什麼特別的節日或者是有人請(?!)。不過這應該也算是紐約經驗之一。<br /><br /><br />[FYI]<br

有很多精緻的pastry。試過幾次這裡的croissant, 屬於很酥的口感, 碎屑會掉滿地那種（據說這裡的donut很"amazing" 一直沒機會嘗試就是了）。很多人常常就點了杯espresso,一份甜點就在吧台（精確來說應該是收銀台）一邊聊天吃起來, 整個非常有neighborhood cafe的氛圍。<br /><br />這裡的午餐也供應Pasta,Panini或是沙拉等等, 可以take-out或eat-in（會有人帶位點餐那種）。多半時候來這裡午餐都是take-out解決, 不過前陣子終於有機會eat-in,於是和朋友分別點了兩種不同的沙拉。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3161284559/" title="Untitled by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3084/3161284559_779110a698.jpg" alt="" width="400" /></a><br />餐前先上麵包。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3162121020/"

href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3162122208/" title="octopus salad by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3110/3162122208_aa20d0b5e6.jpg" alt="octopus salad" width="400" /></a><br />章魚沙拉。其實它是熱的, 有點熱炒的滋味, 不過其實口味還不賴。<br /><br />這裡價格算一般, 值得一提的是他們服務很好, 不斷加水等等。麵包吃完收走後馬上又來新的一籃, 不用特別要求。除了Union Square這家外, 在東村也有分店, 比較小就是了。<br /><br />[FYI]<br /><a

href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3002115396/" title="Untitled by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3276/3002115396_c139d796d8.jpg" alt="" width="333" height="500" /></a><br /><br />這天中午, 原本想帶朋友去<a href="http://eatersblockk.blogspot.com/2008/11/cafe-gitane.html">Cafe Gitane</a>感受一下"類歐洲"的氣息, 只是Gitane一如往常的客滿, 於是只好轉往只隔一個路口的Cafe Habana。<br /><br />Habana在中午時分也是非常忙碌, 遠遠就看到門口友人在等候, 還好兩人座位只等了五分鐘就入座了。這間餐廳除了擁擠大概找不到其它形容詞了, 你跟鄰座的距離大約是遠看會被誤以為你們其實是同一桌的那種感覺。<br /><br />Cafe Habana供應的是拉丁美洲菜, 簡單説就是Cuban-Mexican混合, 所以可以看到古巴三明治或是墨西哥的Quesadilla。<br /><br />這裡幾乎毎桌都點的就是這個墨西哥式烤玉米, 上面撒上半融化的起司和chili powder, 再淋上一點lime, 很不一樣的滋味, 吃的過程中會有點messy, 不過他們貼心的附上牙籤兩支就是了。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3001774378/" title="Grilled Corn Mexican style by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3216/3001774378_ec3a975fe9.jpg" alt="Grilled Corn Mexican style" width="400" /></a><br /><br /><br />Quesadilla de Pollo, 基本上就是Chicken Quesadilla。Quesadilla裡的雞肉烤到非常恰當的程度, 多汁有些酥脆卻又不焦）配上夾在中間的smoked cheese（這個搭配讓人驚喜, 因為一般吃到的都是起司絲）, 這應該是目前心目中第一名的Quesadilla了！<br /><br /><a

de Pollo" width="400" /></a><br /><br />Cafe Habana其實除了狹窄擁擠之外, 其實沒什麼好挑剔的, 價錢合理, 服務比想像中的好, 與鄰座的距離是意料之外的近。不過如果你也是熱愛墨西哥料理的人, 那一定要來試試看Cafe Habana的。<br /><br />除了dine in之外, 也有專門take-out的窗口。<br /><br /><a

/>在紐約要找到好吃的法式甜點店其實不太容易<br />大部分都是非常美式（又大又甜膩）<br />或是義大利式（好像也是又大又甜膩..)<br />而且比較多pastry 蛋糕的外觀也非常不講究 走粗糙狂野的手工路線<br />要找到細緻的法式糕點 不是想吃就吃的到的<br /><br />時間沒有算的剛剛好 結果在wall st 上班族瘋狂湧出辦公室的午餐時間<br />來到finanacier<br />真的是在高樓大廈中間赫然出現古老的石板路 和 露天咖啡座位<br />很詭異又奇妙<br /><br />因為人太多無法在裡面吃只好選擇外帶<br />不過他的糕點真的超級多多到眼花<br />看到一整櫃的法式甜點整個讓我心花開！<br />最後為了怕激怒後面排隊的上班族 只好火速點了幾樣東西<br /><strong>Croque Monsieur </strong>(一直很喜歡這個基本款的法式三明治 大概是因為名字的關係）<br />raisin scone<br />pumkin cheese cake<br />這兩樣都真的很好吃<br />scone 很紮實充滿了葡萄乾和奶香<br />cheese cake 其實是介於蛋糕跟mousse之間的口感<br />綿密卻不會膩<br /><br />咖啡的部份就比較普通 我喝了au lait<br />不過點咖啡都一定會送一個招牌的小小的financiere<br />（不過我從來就不是這類蛋糕的fan就是了）<br /><br />還有看到很多好吃的蛋糕像是開心果巧克力之類的<br />近期內應該會再去！<br />另外他也有賣quiche/ 手工果醬/ 手工biscotti也很想試試<br /><br />店小小的人很多大部份都是上班族 所以要挑好時間去才會有位子<br /><br />不過其實Financier在wall st附近有三家分店！<br /><br />我去的是這間：<br /><br />62 Stone Street<br /> (Bet Mill Lane and Hanover Sq)<br /> New York, NY 10004<br /> <p>Telephone: (212) 344-5600<br /> Fax: (212)

width="400" /></a><br /><br />在兩個嗜吃起司朋友的邀約下, 到了位在東村的S'MAC這家只賣Mac n' Cheeese的店。<br /><br />S'MAC不大外觀有點低調, 整家店的風格是用可愛的橘色及黃色為基調。店內座位不多, 大概可以用熱鬧有點擠來形容, 我們在中午一點左右到達還是等了十五分鐘才有位置。不過據說S'MAC的Mac n' Cheese是紐約屬一屬二有名的。這裡的menu大約有十種左右的Mac n' Cheese口味也可以"build-your-own", 另有四種size可選, 個人覺得大概最小的size(nosh～約莫六寸大小?!)就夠了, 畢竟這種comfort food吃多了, 胃是會抗議的。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/3012986656/" title="Untitled by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3273/3012986656_4e9877cb37.jpg" alt="" width="400" /></a><br /><br />這裡的服務比想像中的好, 店員都很友善, 除了人多了點還算cozy, 價錢大約八塊以下。如果是此類Mac n' Cheese愛好者, 不會讓你失望的。<br /><br /><br />[FYI]<br /><br />Sarita's Macaroni & Cheese<br />345 East 12th Street, NY, NY 10003<br

/><br />Joe一直是受到紐約客高度推崇的咖啡店, 無論是豆子的品質或是barista的技術。Jonathan Rubinstein在2003年時在Waverly Place開了第一家Joe,店內用得是極為講究的La Marzocco espresso機, 之後就幾乎年年都上紐約各大報章雜誌的評選最優咖啡排行榜。截至目前為止, 在曼哈頓已有四家分店。<br /><br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/hereiskaty/2985127977/" title="Joe the coffee of Art by hereiskaty, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3227/2985127977_1751cdd278.jpg" alt="Joe the coffee of Art" width="332" height="500" /></a><br /><br />比較常去的是靠近Union Square在13街上的這家, 相較於Waverly Place的第一家店, 位於十三街這家就寬敞多（以紐約的標準來看）, 但是大部份的時間都還是大排長龍, 生意非常之好。店內的咖啡不同的種類提供的份量也不一樣。比如說, 拿鐵與卡布提供的size會比一般的美式咖啡小一號, 冷飲只有兩種size,小杯與大杯。店內的pastry則是進Manhattan各家的bakary的產品, 種類不多, 但該有的都沒少。<br /><br />平常比較常點的是黑咖啡, 所以有奶泡的卡布, 拿鐵都很少嚐試。不過據另一位也是咖啡愛好者朋友的說法是, Joe大概是她在Manhattan喝到最棒的咖啡了。<br /><br
