If you didn’t know, I’m a bit of a foodie. In fact, my friend & I have our own food instagram, check it out here. So this summer, I’ve explored some new restaurants and cafes that I had never been to before. Let’s have a look.
Untitled (at The Whitney – 8th floor):
A great place for after exploring the wonderful art museum. My mom & I went here for a late lunch in mid May — they have outdoor seating with a view that is hard to beat. They offer a variety of toasts so we each got one as well as an aperitif.
Don’t go here if you’re looking for a huge meal.
Federal Donuts (Philly):
When I visited my friend in Philly we had to go to Federal Donuts for she had always raved about them to me! After we grabbed our food, we dashed to a park to eat our goodies.
You get a chicken sandwich with the donuts — hell yes! & don’t go here if you’re counting calories.
Dō:
I was so looking forward to this place…it is beyond filling, though. I could not have the whole thing (probably ate 1/3) so be warned. You could probably get the smallest size & split it amongst 3 people.
Sure it’s instagramable, but you’d probably be better off getting some for your home that you can nibble on and off (over the course of 1 month!).
Don’t go here unless you have a ravenous sweet tooth & can consume 1 pound of raw cookie dough.
My friend & I took refuge here from one bad summer storm.The froyo (passion fruit & matcha) was nothing special, but I would go back to try other drinks and treats they offer.
Don’t go here if you’re on a budget.
Pasta & Prosecco
It was not super busy when I went, surprisingly. It’s a cute space with pretty good pasta. I would not say it tastes like a fat Italian grandmother made it, though…
Pretty “healthy” as far as pasta goes.
Don’t go here if you would like a variety of options on the menu.
