Good XLB. Was flavorful, BUT the price is pretty expensive for what you get. The dessert XLB filled with nutella/banana was gimmicky but tasted good.

Where to start with this. I loathe cash only places considering the price of this is not exactly cheap.
The U & I bowl was really good but not for +$20. The bowl was rather small although the ingredients were pretty fresh.
The flying pig bowl was the biggest disappointment I’ve had. The broth was just OK. It’s subtly different than the normal tonkatsu style broth. I also opted for an ounce of the jamon iberico.

This place was surprisingly good.
The pork belly was really tasty with the fried skin and chicharron on top.
The beef rib is a must get. Pork ribs are a pass due to them being dry. The ambience has a noir feel.
I just looked at the current menu, and I don’t see the pork belly appetizer anymore. Also, I’m not sure what dessert we got, but it was tasty as well.

This was in a small mall, and it was pretty good. We got the eclairs and apple flan.

This place is CASH ONLY. The chocolate fondu was good, but the cheese that we got was just ok. The meat quality was pretty good with the wine broth.

The pho was ok, and so was the dried vermicelli. It’s a bit expensive for what you get, but also not bad. I probably would still prefer to go to other Vietnamese places, though good Vietnamese places are hard to find in Manhattan. The decor is nice, but food wise - if anyone likes this place, I don’t trust their palette.

Food was bland, but the steak was surprisingly good for a touristy spot. There are a lot of scares from the ninja waiters. The sushi itself was also pretty bland and mediocre.

These are super tiny one bite mini cupcakes. Pretty good though the flavor profiles aren’t that different from each other.

Got eggs in hell, and it was a nice alternative to shakshookas. Somewhat spicy. The price wasn’t too expensive.

Known for their XLBs, it was pretty darn tasty. They also have stinky tofu too and it’s all pretty cheap.
