After moving to New York City for school my friends and I decided a great way to get to know the city is to try a new restaurant every thursday night. It's also a place where I can to take a minute and reflect on the craziness of my new life and the lessons I'm learning along the way. We have been having so much fun meeting cute waiters, talking to other foodies and eating lots of fabulous food. Now about that gym membership...

Amazing Eataly
I officially don't understand how New Yorkers stay skinny with places like this around. Eataly is a gourmet Italian market with four restaurants inside. With a coffee bar, a gelato section, a wine and cheese tasting area and a pasta and butcher counter, theres a ton to choose from. The four restaurants are themed with a vegetarian, meat, seafood and pizza menu. I first went with my mom and sat down and ate at the meat restaurant and had the most amazing ribeye of my life. I then went back with my cousin and some friends and grabbed some cheeses and prosciutto and of course fig jam with a fresh baguette and we sat in Madison Square Park and had a little Eataly picnic. Since then I've been back just to grab an espresso and wander through the aisles of specialty foods, including a whole sections devoted to imported olive oils, where the serious foodies hang out. This is definitely must see place for both tourists and New Yorkers alike.
