Had the pleasure of experiencing Japanese Whisky TOKI BLACK Night featuring @suntorytoki 🖤 Soft lighting, exclusive limited-edition Toki Black, curated bites, and a DJ in a vinyl listening bar… It was truly a VIBE! ✨

The Toki Black was rich/smoky, and a true evolution of the classic (crafted w. Hakushu Peated Malt and Hakushu Grain). We also learned how to craft an Old Fashioned w. the Suntory Team. It was a super engaging, hands-on, and unique experience blending technique, creativity, and fun 🍻

The music also set the mood perfectly!! Every track was literally handpicked to match the character of Toki Black, creating a soulful, analog vibe made for connection and conversation 🎶

A special shoutout to @upstairsatnyc for hosting, curating such a special evening, and never disappointing!! 🥃🪩✨

Back again for round two at @barchefnewyork for the new autumn & winter menu. Expect bolder, more spirit-forward creations that blur the line between mixology and artistry 🥂

🥥 Coconut & Absinthe Sour ($26) – absinthe, coconut rum, lemon, egg white, vanilla, pineapple, flower petals, grapefruit zest. Very floral and bright. 

🖤 Black Truffle ($59) – fresh black truffle, gold leaf, smoked salt, coconut foam, lime zest, London dry gin, coconut liqueur, dill, St-Germain. A true embodiment of BarChef’s culinary artistry. 

🍁 Essence of Fall ($37) – maple + Fernet-Branca spherified ice, cognac, sweet vermouth, rosemary, balsam fir bitters, orange blossom, vanilla, mint, cedar, moss + soil. A forest-inspired evolution in a glass. 

🍶Saikei Vieux Carré ($98) – Yamazaki 12, gold-dust ice, rye, bourbon, coffee vermouth, lapsang, lychee, sake, shiso + more. Reminiscent of the tranquility of a bonsai zen garden.

This is definitely one the most intricate cocktail menus in the city where every sip feels like a multi-sensory journey. Perfect for those who appreciate craftsmanship, complexity, and a little bit of theatrical flair. Whether you’re into bold spirits, delicate balance, or just love a drink that tells a story, BarChef will deliver and impress. Cheers to the wild nights ahead! 👄

Welcome to @ootoyanyc, where nothing beats the comfort of good Japanese food shared on a cozy day 😊 From sizzling hot pots to crispy bites and delicate rolls, every dish brings a taste of comfort and craft to the table. 

• Autumn Gozen – $45 / Limited-time seasonal set featuring your choice of hot pot (we went w. the Washu Beef Sukiyaki Nabe — thinly sliced Washu beef and vegetables simmered in a sweet soy-based sukiyaki broth), served w. ikura rice, soup, and assorted appetizers. Add the Mont Blanc ($7): creamy chestnut dessert w. a buttery shortbread base that’s the perfect cozy finish to an autumn meal 🍂✨

• Salmon Oshizushi – $16 / Three kinds of pressed salmon sushi: raw, seared, and seared w. basil mayo

• Ootoya Futomaki Roll – $15 / Ootoya’s signature roll w. tuna, eel, shrimp, avocado, egg, shiitake mushroom, cucumber, and gourd shaving

• Tori Kurozu An – $25 / Fried chicken and vegetables served w. an original sweet and sour vinegar sauce

• Beef Potato Croquette – $11 / Breaded and deep-fried mashed potato and minced beef served with an original Tonkatsu sauce

• Katsu Ju – $27 / Deep-fried herb pork loin cutlet and onion simmered in a dashi broth, wrapped w. a layer of half-cooked custard egg over rice. 

This entire spread was so satisfying and delicious!! Highly recommend the Autumn Gozen special and the Katsu Ju. INCREDIBLY comforting, delicious and satisfying on all levels. Cheers!!! 🥂

Craving sushi in NYC? Choose @temakase 😍 with their handroll sets and à la carte options! 🍣 We went with the Hangry Set (6 handrolls/$38) and it was a flavor-packed journey with: scallop, blue crab, salmon, tuna, toro, and hamachi. Each roll was fresh, creative, and bursting with flavor. They also give you the option to choose between their classic and spicy handrolls. 

My personal faves were the toro w. scallions and wasabi soy (so melt-in-your-mouth) and the scallop roll with chili butter aioli, chili flakes, and tempura crumbs 🔥

Temakase is also a tip-included spot, which is a nice bonus when you’re focused on enjoying every bite! 🌟

Had the most incredible time at the wine dinner w. Phil Long of @longevity_wines🍷 at @agsteakhouseny 🥩From the moment we sat down, it felt like dinner among friends. Phil shared stories and answered questions as we all enjoyed a 5 course meal w. Longevity pairings. 

• Roasted Savoy Cabbage w. Roasted Butternut + Gala Apples, served w. Queijo Assado (Grilled Cheese Drizzled w. Honey) — Blanc De Blanc Sparkling
• Seared Salmon w. Miso Glaze — Chardonnay
• Lamb Chops + Lamb Sirloin — Cabernet Sauvignon
• Picanha + Ribeye — Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley
• Crème Brûlée Cheesecake

The atmosphere was warm, personable and full of good energy. Wine was flowing back-to-back, the meats arrived beautifully in true Brazilian steakhouse style, and Long Phu even opened bottles w. the sabrage technique 😱⚔️🗡️!! 

At $155 per person (including tax + gratuity) for a five-course wine pairing dinner like this, it felt more than worth it. You’ll come for the steak/wine and stay for the vibes. Come experience for yourself ✨

There’s a calm precision to dining at @ensobk ❤️‍🔥 For this visit, we chose the Kyo Tasting ($95 pp), a curated progression that quietly unfolds like a story: three daily sashimi selections, a trio of nigiri, and the Aka set (akami, chutoro, and otoro). We also added the wine pairing ($75 pp) 🍷, which proved to be as thoughtfully composed as the menu itself.

Enso is definitely high-quality and it SHOWS. Every single piece was incredibly fresh, like it came straight from Japan to Brooklyn 🇯🇵➡️🗽

Everything also feels super intentional, from the ceramics to the pacing of each course. And you can tell it’s designed to let the food speak for itself ✨ The space also mirrors the food perfectly: minimalist, warm, and quietly elegant 🤍

They’re also offering an intimate 16 course omakase 🍶, which I’m definitely coming back to try. If the Kyo Tasting was just a glimpse, I can only imagine how incredible the full omakase journey will be.

If you’re looking for pure luxury in every bite, look no further than @wallstreetcaviar 🌟 During our exclusive tasting, we sampled some of the finest caviar around: Siberian Sturgeon, Golden Oestra, Beluga, Kaluga, and Oestra. Each variety was served in generous portions, offering distinct flavor profiles and an unbeatable experience!! 

My personal favorite was the Golden Oestra (pinnacle of luxury with its smooth, buttery texture and a subtle, nutty finish). Its rich golden hue is as elegant as its taste, and while the price may vary, you’re absolutely paying for what you get. It’s a rare and exquisite treat that’s worth every cent! 

Generous portions, top-tier quality, and exceptional service (shout out to Damien 🤠) If you’re after the best in NYC, this is the place to indulge! Cheers!!

What a blast at @sakecon.nyc! 🍶✨ Had SO much fun exploring the samplings! (Not sure how I made it through all 15 but I was definitely lit by the end 😭😂) Each sake was unique in its own way and I could really appreciate the craftsmanship behind each one.

The highlight of my night was having NYCULINARY written on my sake glass in both English and Japanese calligraphy 🖋️And of course, trying the Dassai Blue Sake Mille Crêpes by @ladymcakes where the subtle sweetness and refined sake notes blend perfectly 👐🏻

All of the vendors brought their A-game and made this all-white affair a total vibe!! 🤍 Can’t wait to go back next year and dive even deeper into the world of sake 🌎

As we venture through the city exploring the best omakase spots, we stumbled upon @hanayanyc offering an incredible 13-course experience for just $75, with à la carte options too 🍣✨ The nigiri was straight to the point. Classic, fresh, and perfectly executed. A standout was the Hokkaido Uni. It was incredibly creamy, briny, and buttery. (If my Uni doesn’t like look this I don’t want it!!!) 

For something extra special, their premium nigiri shines with indulgent touches like wagyu, caviar, foie gras, and a selection of exquisite fish like Kinmedai, Hirame, and Rosy Seabass. Every bite was definitely a treat! 😋

I had the privilege of dining at @hoy.huntington for an unforgettable experience that was truly more than just a meal! The two-hour Kaiseki-style dinner, led by Michelin-trained Chef Tadaaki “Zack” Ishizaki, felt like a journey through flavor, craftsmanship, and artistry ✨🍽️

With only ten seats at the Kaiseki counter and just two seatings per evening, the atmosphere was intimate and intentional. Each course arrived delicately plated, seasonal, and infused with precision. 

My favorites of the night were the sake-poached oyster (a delicate balance of briny and silky), the uni ikura don (a luscious combination of oceanic flavors), and the sukiyaki Wagyu (melt-in-your-mouth perfection) 😋🔥

From the serene ambiance to the thoughtful presentation, every element at House of Yoshin feels deeply considered, creating a dining experience that’s as meaningful as it is memorable 💗

Hidden gem alert in Long Island y’all!! If you ever find yourself craving both an Italian hero and Korean comfort food, you’ve gotta check out @mumsdelicatessen 🥪 It looks like your classic neighborhood deli from the outside, but step in and you’ll find an extensive Korean menu right next to all the Italian sandwich staples. Everything here tastes homemade, the kind of food that’s clearly made w. LOVE ❤️

As a Queens native, the BEC/SPK slapped. But the real star of the breakfast show was the Korean breakfast toast. A buttery bread, soft fluffy eggs w. veggies and crunchy canbage. Inspired by the kind of street-style toast kids in Korea would grab on their way to school. 

Their most popular dish though is definitely the Bulgogi over Rice. It’s thin sliced ribeye marinated in a house-made soy sauce (!!!!!), runny eggs and spicy mayo. Every bite is rich, savory, and dangerously addicting. And if you’ve had a wild night out? Their Hangover Ramen has your back. Warm, spicy, and soul-healing in the best way. 🍜

Trust me, this one’s worth adding to your Long Island list of places to try 😮‍💨
