Il Buco Alimentari

Yes, it’s been a long time. So long, in fact, that we forgot to take a picture of the outside of the restaurant. That’s okay. For Il Buco Alimentari, it is really the inside and the amazi...

Gusto

Gusto, you had me at Burrata! Every Thursday, Gusto (pronounced goose-toe) receives a shipment of burrata from Italy. We may need to be at Gusto every Thursday from now until – well, forever! F...

Seersucker

Fork and Strawberry Fork have been trying to make a play date for ages. Something – or someone – always gets in the way. We are both MAD for fried chicken. And when I received an email fr...

The Mussel Pot

As you walk along Bleecker Street, you are at no loss for restaurants. Any cuisine you can imagine, any price point, fancy, casual, fast food, good food, not such good food. Along this stretch of res...

Nougatine @ JeanGeorges

For Fork and Spoon, a Jean-Georges Vongerichten restaurant is love at first bite. The restaurants are beautiful, warm, inviting, staffed with people who are pleased to be there. Everything is perfect...

Sostanza

This is, by far, my favorite restaurant in Florence. Fabulous food, friendly staff, fabulous food, unpretentious … did I mention the fabulous food? Sostanza is located Santa Maria Novella. Fork...

Procacci

Procacci opened its doors in 1885 on the prestigious via Tornabuoni. The interior is all original workmanship and has a very Art Noveau feeling throughout. These days, Procacci is part of the Antinor...

Sora Margherita

Tucked deep inside Rome’s Jewish Ghetto is a wonderful hidden gem of a restaurant. So hidden, in fact, if you didn’t know what to look for, you would not know where to find it! Off the V...

Er Buchetto

Literally translated – hole in the wall – and it is. But is the best hole in the wall you will ever come across. Er Buchetto is located minutes walking from Termini Station in Rome and do...

Salt & Fat

Now, really. Is there anything about the name of this restaurant that would lead you to believe that it wasn’t wonderful? We can all pretend that we are virtuous when it comes to what we eat, b...

Porchetta

A number of years ago, Fork, Spoon and the Salad Tongs went to a tasting at the Armory on Lexington Avenue. The tasting was a disaster. It was so crowded you couldn’t move. The food was running...

David Burke @ Bloomingdale’s

I love David Burke. There is something completely childlike about him. His food and restaurants are full of whimsy. A characteristic that calls to Fork’s soul. It was natural that after a bit o...

Sel et Poivre

Fork and Spoon were invited to a Press Tasting Dinner at Sel et Poivre on the upper east side of Manhattan. And while we don’t want to do too many of these – we prefer anonymous visits &...

Bubby’s

Fork & Spoon needed a restaurant close enough to an event we were attending to not involve a lot of walking in the rain. Our biggest dilemma always seems to be what to eat. Neither of us ever wan...

Max

Fork and Spoon were recently invited to our first press dinner at Max. We were very nervous at this prospect. What if we hated it? Would people feel our review was credible if we were invited to revi...

The Chicken Always Clucks Twice
