we are enjoying under $20 lunch of duck rillettes crepe, acorn squash soup and pressed andouille, mushroom and manchego sandwhich from Paradou Marche- new take out place in Essex Market. Yum and cheap. Also have take home meals like coq au vin, cassoulet, pork tenderloin with merguez choucroute for under $12. Only drawback market closes early and on Sunday.
Best Vegan Meal in NYC??
Bar Masa.....not cheap but was a vegan meal front to back, highlights included a muchroom roll crusted in winter truffle, spicy cucumber tataki, winter root veggie and seaweed salad, and the best yuba I have ever tasted "Masa's mother overnighted it from her favorite producer".
Its a Hangawi + food experience....
Blue Hill Stone Barns: beet burgers and a beet parfait ruled the amuses, the first course was this strange fish that was like a swordfish, served raw, scary....Amazing muchroom/salad and "todays egg" corse was dish of the meal, great winter veggie course and lovely desserts......next meal downtown or uptown I am doing "lacto ovo veggie"
