Ok, I know that’s not how the saying goes, but these days ice cream is being replaced by it’s creamier counterpart…gelato! While on 42nd Street, I passed Screme, a new gelato bar that has opened several locations in NYC. I was overwhelmed by the variety of flavors and the generous samples the employees give away. Since I had to get back to rehearsal, I only had time to sample Read More »

Located near Rockefeller Center and the famous Radio City Music Hall, is Del Frisco’s, a fabulous steakhouse. Not only is the food great, but the service is fantastic. This is the place where I was introduced to the BEST lemon cake I’ve ever had.

Brownie and I have the pleasure of being a part of The Alice’s Teacup Cookbook, out next year!!!! Since Alice’s is our FAVORITE place for sweets in NYC, we were thrilled to be in some candid shots. The adorable owners even brought over a piece of their chocolate cake with buttercream icing for us to have. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…THIS IS THE BEST CAKE IN NYC! xoxo Blondie

After a fantastic dinner and drinks, I ordered their dessert special: Marillenknodel. It’s basically Read More »
