NYC Nom Nom is a blog about food love. Restaurants and recipes… from the good, to the bad, to the un-nommable. I am very fortunate in that I get to try many of the best restaurants in NYC. I also am realizing that I love to cook and have been expanding my culinary skills with my boyfriend, Mike. So what better way to chart my path through the world of food than with a blog?

Michael White’s Ai Fiori for Valentine’s Day Part Deux

Dominique Ansel Bakery

When Mike and I ate at Daniel in summer 2011, the entire meal was epic, but the desserts were hands down the best I can remember. I looked up the pastry chef when I got home and found out that it was Dominque Ansel. I also caught some news that he would shortly be leaving [...]

Anita Lo’s Annisa for Valentine’s Day

We had been wanting to try Anissa for a long time. We had watched Anita Lo on television (Top Chef Masters most notably) and she was one of the chefs that made my mouth water every time she presented a dish. We went to Rickshaw Dumpling Bar (her more casual restaurant in NYC) and her dessert [...]
