As I said in my metaphorical
toast— it’s been a delicious year. So many foodie ventures! I’ve indulged
in yummy things on the East and West Coast (sweet
and savory).
I baked, sampled, tasted, ate, and gorged on so many delightful eats. But here
are my Best of 2014!
New Recipe
Let’s face it—I like to try out new
recipes especially when it comes to baked goods. These are the recipes that
really took the cake this year!
Bite
I had a lot of bites this year, like a
lot. Between Taste
of Tribeca, Taste
of Hope and all the other chowing down I do, there was no shortage tasty
bites, but these were my faves.
Sugar Couture
Little Collins
Drinks
Even though apparently I sampled a whole
bunch of flavorful
libations this year, one spot had my favorite sips.
Appetizers
Appetizers can sometimes really steal the
show. The starters at these restaurants made for delectable beginnings.
Brunch
As that in-between time, brunch menus can
offer the sweet and savory stuffs of both breakfast and lunch. This year
however, my taste-buds danced for savory brunchy dishes.
Park & Sixth Gastropub
The Bistro at Grove Square
Dessert
Dessert is my most favorite time of day.
Love salty, but I have a weakness for sweet thangs, and this year, these two
desserts really satisfied my sweet tooth.
Bareburger Hoboken
La Nonna
Dish
It’s practically impossible for me to
pinpoint the best dish I devoured in 2014, as there were so many extremely
delicious, covetable and dreamy eats.
But I stumbled on this one as something I thoroughly enjoyed this year.
Battello
Most Memorable Meal
It’s hard to say what makes a meal
memorable. Is it the delicious dishes, the fresh ingredients, the agreeable
atmosphere and service? Or is it the sheer thrill of caloric ingestion? There
is one place that comes to mind that most definitely checks all of the boxes
for my most memorable meal in 2014.
