Gourmands, I’m your go-to gal.
After having spent many years working in several facets of the fine dining scene, I’m lucky to have the insider’s scoop to the best restaurants in both NYC and SF. I love to get lost in the liminal space between my easygoing nature and the no-detail-spared approach that makes these experiences so memorable. My humble upbringing allows me to approach the finer things with a deep sense of curiosity and appreciation. I eat like I travel— my adventurous spirit guides me to life’s sweetest moments, both at and away from the dinner table.
RESTAURANT WISHLISTS
Here are a few restaurants I either love or have had my eye on. Make us a reservation to one of them and be sure to have me swooning!
NYC || Le Bernardin, Torrisi, Kono, Le Coucou, Gramercy Tavern, Dirt Candy, Yoshino, Estela, Keens, Corner Store
SF || Quince, Anomaly SF, Birdsong, Friends Only, Niku Steakhouse
SNACKS & SPIRITS
Snacks and drinks in the suite are always such a nice touch. Here are a few recommendations for the peckish and parched.
Snacks || Cheeses with nuts and crackers, vegetables with hummus, and organic fruit. Bonus points if you can score some dark chocolate covered strawberries!
Drinks || Still water, mezcal negronis, a gin martini with a twist, or a chilled glass of Billecart. I also love being surprised with a unique bottle of natural wine. A golden rule: I don’t like drinks that are sweet.
