Nov 18, 2024 | theinfatuation.com | Arden Shore

THE MOMENT WE KNEW WE LOVED ITSipping champagne, already about six dishes in, when the kanpachi with mussel vinaigrette and Jimmy Nardello peppers appeared. It’s simultaneously smooth, crunchy, and savory with a touch of heat. A PERFECT ORDER FOR A VERY SPECIAL DATE NIGHTThe tasting menu is ever-changing, so whether you get duck three ways or scallops in a kimchi beurre blanc is out of your hands. Add on the $140 wine pairing if you want to amp up the experience.
Tiny Martinis & More 2025 Restaurant Trend Predictions

Nov 18, 2024 | theinfatuation.com | Arden Shore

Come, gather round. We’re looking at the tea leaves of 2024 to predict what’s to come in 2025. If the past year was any indication of what’s brewing in the world of dining out, we sure hope you like restaurant celery, deluxe sandwiches with toppings sourced from outside of state lines, and sporks. OK fine, we’ve only seen two sporks, and both were in Miami. Of course, change is slow, especially across an entire country.
Fandi Mata Review - Williamsburg - New York - The Infatuation

Oct 20, 2024 | theinfatuation.com | Arden Shore

The selling point of Fandi Mata is its space. In fact, this would be a wonderful venue for a private party of any kind. The ceilings soar. Everything seems to orbit around a drooping disco ball. Palm fronds provide privacy. Lighting and playlists are taken seriously. We’d bet that almost everyone who walks through the door for the first time says something like, “What a space.” The broadly Mediterranean spot is romantic in a fun, Friday night kind of way.
The 11 Best Fish Tacos In LA

Californians owe Mexico for many of our favorite things, like the caesar salad, micheladas, and, of course, the glorious fish taco. You'll find fried fish tacos everywhere in this city, from Happy Hour menus to high-end restaurants to random burger stands, and no two of them look (or taste) exactly the same.

The West Village-adjacent neighborhood (we’re focusing on the area between Broadway and 6th Ave.) is home to Washington Square Park, as well as an impressive amount of off-Broadway theaters. It also has a high concentration of excellent restaurants.

The 9 Best Restaurants In America 2024

Jun 24, 2024 | theinfatuation.com | Arden Shore

Most of The Infatuation’s restaurant and bar guides start with “The Best” this or “The Best” that. And unlike how you might call a good friend a best friend or a perfectly lovely afternoon the best day ever, we quantify what best means with a ratings system that goes from 1-10, which you are welcome to read about here.
Nana’s Green Tea Review

Apr 16, 2024 | theinfatuation.com | Arden Shore

Arden ShoreIf you’re looking for a little quiet and some showy soft serve in Herald Square, Nana’s Green Tea is the place. Choosing how you want your tea-rich matcha and hojicha soft serve can be as complicated as ordering eggs. Cup? Cone? Floating on a tea latte? But we stick to the matcha parfait, a tall glass that comes with a long spoon and layers of mochi globules, cream, cereal, and red bean paste.
