This is why we get along.<br /><br />Yeah, "insanely crowded and overpriced" sounds like Batali's two places here, too, but I don't even care. It's great food and everything's always so exciting to see.<br /><br />Hah, I never got banana pudding as a kid, so maybe that's the appeal? Definitely try it with booze sometime, though!

I must confess I've never been to Eataly. I hate the name. But if you liked it, I will check it out. And lol I would have been hiding under the table if a camera crew was anywhere nearby. Nuh-uh. The one exception I'd make is that I used to be obsessed with this show called Cash Cab. It would drive around New York picking people up and you could win cash for answering trivia questions. I think they cancelled it, but it was my dream to get picked up by that cab.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04756695137600895936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-32043636322114701122014-06-14T17:46:29.977-04:002014-06-14T17:46:29.977-04:00OMG, looks absolutely delicious! :)))OMG, looks absolutely delicious! :)))kara-karina@Nocturnal Book Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11262585710463536717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-14897760060522084112014-06-13T16:15:07.135-04:002014-06-13T16:15:07.135-04:00I'm thinking... it's good I ate before com...I'm thinking... it's good I ate before coming on this blog.

It's basically the Italian food Disneyworld. It's insanely crowded and probably over priced but the food has always been excellent. Especially the pasta and meats.<br /><br />I'm always surprised when people discover the banana pudding at Magnolia. My mom made that for me all the time when I was a kid so I don't see what the big deal is. lol I've never had the adult versant hough. I'll have to try that.<br /><br />Cafe Blossom is my favorite vegan place but I heard that Candle Cafe is also excellent. I just ran out of time…<br /><br />There are so many great places to eat in NYC. I'll never have time to try them all!<br /><br />A few really great places we found for fresh, quick on the go sandwiches were Sun Sweet Fresh Market & Breads Bakery.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13958940283330319507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-51999097246448175352014-06-13T10:34:59.758-04:002014-06-13T10:34:59.758-04:00Yeah - it didn't change us either.

I've always resented that I live in South East Asia where almost nothing book-related fun ever happen (Gayle Forman, Veronica Roth, Tahereh Mafi, and several others visited but we need more bookish events). But now I'm equally furious because I might never get a taste of all those deliciousness if I don't pack my bags and fly there at the soonest possible time.

I know I asked for this, but I want to eat everything you mentioned! :( <br /><br />Okay, let's talk specifics: <br /><br />I found out from the Candlewick rep's Instagram that Pie Face was in New York. I LOVE Pie Face! We ate there so many times when we went to Australia and I miss it so much! So tasty and so cute.<br /><br />Clotted cream: YES.<br /><br />You went to Eataly! I'm so excited to see that one day. I've read so much about it, and I can't wait to eat my way through.<br /><br />We have a Magnolia in LA now, but I'll always think fondly of the one in NY since I first went there with one of my best friends after a show. I mostly like the banana pudding from there, though. I found a recipe for it and made it at home, but I also added grand marnier, so I think my recipe is even better. Heeeee.<br /><br />It's so cool that you like vegan places as well. I am by no means a vegetarian, but I do love vegetables and my husband and I try out vegetarian places all the time. <br /><br />And finally--I am SO happy for you that you got to meet Ann Aguirre! After beta reading for her all this time! That is so awesome, and I bet you ladies had tons of fun.<br /><br />I think I'm going to be in New York later this year, so I will be bookmarking this for reference. ;) Thanks for sharing your eating adventures! It was worth waiting for.<br /><br />Wendy @ <a href="http://www.themidnightgarden.net/2014/06/girlwithallthegifts.html" rel="nofollow">The Midnight Garden</a><br /><br />Wendy Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471461156849725177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-40574002430216724542014-06-12T23:03:25.520-04:002014-06-12T23:03:25.520-04:00Oh and now since I've been "discovered&qu...Oh and now since I've been "discovered" by that camera crew, I've turned into a total extrovert!
