Favorite PS Restaurant

I forgot Miriam, which is an old standby. Also Ghenet has been making me happy (except for the spotty service) and Barrio is lovely - hope they maintain their quality level.

Where is Canaille? I never noticed it before. Is it new?
-
Press 195
Rosewater
Blue Ribbon -

5th Ave btwn St Marks and Prospect. Been open less than a year. Food is always fantastic and the people there are the best. Phillipe and Marie are wonderful people and chef Olivier is a magician. -
thanks, Underhill. I'll put it on my list of places to try.
-
Al Di La, Tempo, Applewood.

My only knock on Applewood is that it can sometimes go a bit too far in giving you small portions.
It's a fantastic restaurant, but nothing beats Blue Hill (never been to the Manhattan Blue Hill, though.) I have not yet found a place where they can give you something as simple as a carrot and have it be full of such intense flavor. Applewood comes nowhere near those heights. -
I could eat at Olive Vine everyday!
-
Without the kids... Al Di La
With the kids... La Villa
Ordering in... La Villa -
Right on, Ringrunner! I DO eat Olive Vine every day. Almost every day. Wow, hungry just thinking about it. I order from them so often that they recognize my voice on the phone and know what I'm going to order. Sometimes they include free tea, 'cause that's just the way O.V. rolls.
For brunch, I like Little D - even their scrambled eggs are unusually yummy. Miracle Grill also has good brunch, but the coffee is atrocious. Oh, and Nono Kitchen. Wow, yum. Holy cow, A-plus to everything I've ever eaten there at any meal. -
So, what do you order at OV every day? I hear they make good pizza.

Blue Ribbon is absolute fav. Also really like Lobo, Geido and Miriam.
-
I love Blue Ribbon too, but I left it off my list since there are Manhattan versions as well. Never been to Geido and Miriam

Their labana is to die for. I also really dig their assorted salad platter (all the salads I've had have been very fresh and tasty). Their foule is always really nice. If you're into chicken you should consider the dish (blanking on the name right now) with the pastry surrounding chicken, rice, spices, raisins, and general deliciousness. They'll know what you mean if you mention the pastry.

Applewood, Rose Water, Al Di La easily as my tops. Also enjoy Song, La Taqueria, Flatbush Farm
-
Al Di La for the win, although it makes more sense to get a table at the wine bar. Same food, more room, more chill atmosphere. I've never eaten anything that let me down there.
Otherwise Song is one of the great Thai restaurants in the whole world, I feel, despite being amazingly affordable. We love that place. -
actually, one criticism of al di la - what is with their dismal sparkling wine selection?
-
I like Al Di La Vino more as well. Same food, better ambiance in my opinion.

i LOVE OV. i order the assorted salad platter, the lentil soup (which comes with a half a lime to squeeze in). i hear the green pizza is to die for. fresh piping hot pitas, too, and the guy who owns the place always tells me i'm beautiful. ONLY thing they don't have is the cucumber/yogurt/mint thing, or if they do i haven't noticed it on the menu. it's one of my favorite slope restaurants hands down.

watana siam thai is great also, on my list of faves.
seschuan d, of course. they know our orders by heart.
i've heard the brunch at miriam is great but haven't yet gone. brunch at beast is awesome.
i really like anthonys, good pizza and gnocci. -

Oooh, I do like Anthony's too.
I'll definitely make a point to try OV. I can't imagine why I haven't done it sooner.
Where is sezchuan d? -
north slope. amazing chinese and they deliver in a split second.
OV has outdoor tables and it's BOYB. name the time, flexi, and we're there (and they have this dessert semolina cake thingy with honeyed syrup... ) i KNOW i have to have dinner from there tonight -
BYOB is one of my favorite 4 letter "words" :-)
-
OV's spinach/mozzarella pie is excellent, and my god, the lentil soup? To die for. I eat that combo about 4X/week. If I'm feeling adventurous, I get the dolmades. They are perfect in all ways.
I should perhaps mention that I have a wide variety of exotic food allergies that rule out - well, they rule out most food. But I would STILL eat OV as often even if I could eat other stuff. -
Whoa, how did I forget the Chocolate Room? For anyone who hasn't been there, it's on 5th Ave almost all the way to Atlantic. Holy smokes, the brownie sundae is inSANE. INSANE!
-
I love Blue Ribbon, though only on special occasions and never after 6:30 PM. I like to get one of those corner booth seats.
-
Snickers I agree with what you said about Blue Ribbon. Once that place is crowded and the music is jacked up the whole atmosphere changes. the food remains gorgeous. Another time to go is late, late.
-
Thumbs up to:
Rosewater
Miriam
Yoshima
Bogata
guilty pleasures:
Los Politos II (shrimp enchilada and outdoor seating)
Rancho Allegre (hard to defend, but love the atmosphere)
Rice Thai Kitchen (tofu pad si ew= always delicious)
And, though I've only eaten there once, I really liked Java. I can't wait to go back. -
OMG, you are the FIRST person I know in over 10 years who I have heard of eating at Ranho Allegre. I always wonder how they survive! I've never gone inside in all of this time as it never looked appealing to me. Do tell!
Howdy, Stranger!
