New York City barbecue Fette Sau is set to close forever this weekend, so my wife and I had our last meal at the historic restaurant.

We celebrated seven years of marriage with dinner at St. Anselm.

The Three Decker Diner reinvented the classic Greenpoint restaurant, modernizing the menu, and serving up American nostalgia. We ate lunch and dinner there.

New York City has slowly become a barbecue town, and one of the destinations that continues to deliver is Hometown Bar-B-Que. Despite its location in Red Hook far from subway stations, the restaurant regularly has long lines extending out the door. We showed up on a warm September Saturday in the late afternoon before the dinner rush and still had a 40-minute wait time. But in the end, it was probably worth it.

We ate at Bonnie’s, a Cantonese-inspired, Chinese American restaurant embracing some Italian American influences.
