The Boil

So Friday night my BF surprised me by taking me to a place that I had pointed out a couple weeks ago located on Chrystie St down on the LES.  The overall ambiance is cozy and efficient ( i mean your peeling shellfish lol) but down in woods and reds.  The table has butcher paper on it for easy clean up and they give you buckets to put the shells into.  The service was ok, I think that our waitress was getting annoyed with us, maybe its cause I was hangry lol.  To start we got the gumbo which was ok but needed some hot sauce. We ordered the crayfish and lobster bucket done in old bay (there really is no other way to eat it) and it came with baby crayfish, a lobster (whole), potatoes that were over cooked, a earn of corn and andouille sausage.  The food was coated in the old bay and I made my own dipping sauce which the waitress looked at me crazy when I asked for mayonnaise.  Overall something you should do once but having grown up on the bayou in Louisiana i know how crayfish need to be cooked and this was over done.  I would give 2.5 out of 5 forks.

A La Siagon

So on Monday I had a day job over in the financial district and came across this gem.  I was on the hunt for great Vietnamese food, specifically bun.  Its noodles served with grilled chicken, cucumbers, lettuce and peanuts and is the best thing ever.  Small place (surprise!) but tasty and fresh.  Overall 3 out of 5 forks so when in the area walk over and check it out.





Noƫlz Designer Resale

So while working in DUMBO the other week i came across a great little shop located at  145 front st. Its called Noelz closet and he specializes in designer resale.  Its a consignment shop and its all about luxury brands.  There are the Christian Louboutin shoes, Prada bags, and of course possibly some of my jewelry will be featured.  The shop is located towards the back of the building and he is opening a space next to him that will do customer printed shirts (of course I have some ideas on shirts that I want).  Everything within the shop is in pristine condition and displayed in a simple presentation (so not as to distract from the awesomeness that he is selling).  So when your in the area stop in and tell him Jessica sent you.  Have designer goods you want to sell?  Call the shop at 917-624-5043 this man knows what hes dealing with and is on point.
