A Gastrorgasmic Food Guide to New York
New York holds a special place in our hearts because it has been the setting for many life-changing events – me going to college, us getting engaged, and most notably, ET’s induction into the wonderful land of sashimi. (Yes, he didn’t eat sashimi for the first 27 years of his life.) This list is special to us because it is OUR personal list of favourite restaurants that we’ve tried, tested, can’t stop thinking about and make a point to visit every time we go back to the city. So whether you’re visiting the Big Apple for the first time or tenth, you must check out our gastrorgasmic food guide to New York!
