Brunchin'

When my 2 favorite meals of the day blend together... Brunch is the best, whether it's a boozy one, a lazy one in the neighborhood or simply to start off your weekend activities. Last weekend some besties and I decided to try a new spot we've never been to before, 
"The Smith" located on the Upper West Side.
If I could wake up every morning with breakfast in bed served from the Smith, I will have essentially died and gone to brunch heaven! That's how good it was! The atmosphere was hip and service was on point, waiter even gave recommendations that were delicious. I can't wait to go back for Dinner.
It was a packed house so, I would recommend making reservations.

Thanks a Latke

My new job involves a lot of food! I'm currently working for a Catering Company in the corporate office and boy is this a dream come true for me... My two passions in one.

I got invited to their Annual Latke Festival at the Metropolitan Pavilion last night and had a blast!

What is a Latke, you ask? (Very popular in Jewish cooking) It's a pancake, especially one made with grated potato.

The festival was a competition involving a bunch of different venues show casing their own twist on a traditional latke, at the end everyone votes for a winner. Delicious I must say!

Happy Hanukkah!

Yoga...

"You cannot always control what goes on outside. But you can always control what goes on inside"
 
Yoga gives you so much energy, builds body strength, Improves flexibility, Helps with your breathing, Builds a better posture, Reduces stress etc. I've never been more in touch with my body as I do now. I hope to practice more than once a week very soon after the holidays...
 
"When the breath wanders the mind also is unsteady. But when the breath is calmed the mind too will be still, and the yogi achieves long life. Therefore, one should learn to control the breath.'
-Hatha Yoga Pradipika

"One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating.”-Luciano Pavarotti, ‘My Own Story’
