Almost a year ago, I moved to an apartment about four blocks from the TriBeCa Turks & Frogs. When I moved, my new roommate suggested the spot to me as a delicious restaurant, great for nearly any occasion—dads and dates alike.
It was only a few weeks ago that I got around to checking it out [...]

Lara Bar, the all-natural energy bar brand that contains only a few ingredients per flavor, has added several new flavors.
The Dish team was a huge fan of the cinnamon roll, which contains only dates, walnuts, almonds, raisins, cashews, and plenty of cinnamon. We also adored the lemon bar, made with tangy concentrated lemon juice.
The bars [...]

A few weeks ago, I ordered tuna sashimi at David Burke & Donatella. The menu mentioned something about Himalayan rock salt, and, because I love salty things, I was excited to order the dish. What I didn’t realize—and what was truly the exciting part of the appetizer—was that the sashimi, a few small pieces of [...]

All of this drinking and I’m getting a little peckish! Zabaglione, the creamy Italian dessert, goes with any of the beverages we’ve listed in this issue.

A national drink of [...]

Cool off this August by preparing your meals without any extra heat. Try new methods such as a cure, a ceviche, or a carpaccio. These techniques “cook” fish without overheating your kitchen. The no-cook cooking approach will make any summertime get together stress free by keeping everybody cool.
Cured salmon is always a popular addition to [...]

I had a piece of salmon sushi a few weeks ago that came topped with something identified simply as scallion sauce, and I was blown away by the intense flavor.
Sushi Seki, a longtime favorite of sushi connoisseurs, is a modest space on the Upper East Side that cranks out reliably topnotch creative and traditional sushi, [...]

Explore a new kind of fried chicken and you’ll never return to KFC again! During a late night in Koreatown, a Dish assistant encountered Bon Chon, one of several Korean chicken restaurants popping up in the United States. When receiving her party’s order—the large special—she knew this was not your typical fried chicken.
Served in a [...]

Manhattan is not exactly a country club friendly city. With limited space for golf courses and great lodge-esque clubhouses, the boathouse in Central Park is about the closest Manhattanites come to an afternoon at the club without leaving the city.
Luckily, the city is full of delicious clubhouse (or simply club) sandwiches. The Dish team took [...]
