А я неделю жила за углом от этого ресторана! 100 раз мимо ходила, а посещать не стала: по той же причине, почему отказалась от fusion cuisine из списка рекомендованых ресторанов. В Венгрии хочу аутентичной кухни, а не условных суши или хинкали.

Tick-tack lunch
Posted in 2017, tagged gourmet, New York, photos, travel on February 19, 2017| 8 Comments »
I’ll tell you how to enjoy NY Restaurant Week: choose places with min of (4) $-signs to their name. The price is set (although it grew from $25 to $29 for lunch this year), but a good Chef will be a good Chef even on unaccustomely small allowance – and you’ll get a chance to see the insides of a restaurant that is normally out of your league.
That’s how, years ago, I enjoyed my birthday dinner at Jean-George (yep, at one of Trump NY buildings). And that’s how me and a colleague went to a Clocktower at – you guessed! – Metro Life building with its enormous clock atop the tower, the one that gives Madison Park on 23rd St its Deco energy and charm. Personal anecdote – every architect/designer have similar after few years of working in this city: ~15yrs ago the new owners of the building considered converting the top 20-25 floors of the Tower into hi-end apartments, and gave our office some seed money to develop preliminary space planning. We went to survey, then shared with engineers the original base building drawings. I still remember the floor plans, especially of the 25-27, where the clock takes about a quarter of the floor plate. Naturally, when we were in the middle of design process, the owners changed their mind and sold the place to someone else – too bad. Another project that “might have been”.
But I digress.
Happy Coming NY’s Eve!

I have broken with tradition to celebrate the newborn year at home, under Christmas tree, surrounded by bowls of salad Olivier. I am joining Jesse’s party at Gander. Planning to take pictures until defeated by open bar.
Where will you be partying at midnight? I wish you all, rare readers(c), fun evening and a prosperous new year ahead!
Сакартвело!

is a worthy alternative to infamous S, D & R-n-R.
At least that’s what I thought on Friday, stopping for dinner at Salud Bklyn on 3rd ave.

Пашины креветки
Posted in 2015, tagged alone, food, friends, gourmet, my precious home on August 22, 2015| 2 Comments »
Рецепт выпрошен у Паши Кудрявцева, за что ему ОГРОМНОЕспасибо. Невероятно вкусно.
Итак, на 2 порции:
50 грамм креветок с головой, алебо же лангустинов.
1/2 зубчика чесноку
Чорт… Ciboulette… Лук-батун… По-английски не знаю.
Полторы-две ст. ложки оливкового масла Экстра Вирхен
50 мл белого вина
30 мл рыбного бульёну
50 мл двойных сливок
малая чуточка чёрного перцу смолотого тут же и кайенского.Очистить креветков и всю шелуху вкупе с головами и в отдельном ковшичке обжарить на ложке оливкового масла. Как покраснеют- добавить вино, за пару минут выпарить алкоголь. В другой сковородке на второй ложке масла за те же две-три минуты обжарить с чесноком очищенных креветков. В ту же сковороду добавить бульон и процеженный отвар из-под шелухи. Туда же сливки. На первом этапе в обоих случаях огонь довольно сильный, далее- слабый. Всё перемешать, добавить перцы и готовить 1-2 минуты не более. Далее облить пасту и проглотить язык)))))))))))))))))
А теперь – дискотека картинки!
