Crunch  

Category: Gyms
Neighborhood: Financial District

5 star rating

I recently moved BACK to Manhattan in the FiDi (love it HERE) -- although I have an awesome gym in my building, I joined Crunch because of the "talent" that I get to choose from.

Forget about going to a bar and meeting an attractive woman there -- funk 'dat!  I get to choose the prettiest and shapliest ladies here -- and they are wearing sexy Lululemon yoga gear that fits in all the right places :)

Ok, I digress.  The gym is undergoing MAJOR renovation and expansion -- the machines are in great condition.  I have space to workout and pump up my muscles...and I must say, since joining this location last month, the spin classes, weights and even yoga classes have made Clarence lose 13 pounds!  My moobs are GONE!  I have PECS again!

Thanks Crunch!  

And ladies, I am single, so please do not hesitate to talk to me when I am using the glute-master.

Tell them Clarence sent ya & you'll get a free 2 week trial!

The specialty pizzas are tasty (my fave is the 'Shroomtown)
The greek salad is tasty
The apple pie a la mode is a MUST!

Mr Biggs Bar & Grill

Neighborhood: Hell's Kitchen

Mr. Biggs in an institution in Hell's Kitchen (yes, it's still Hell's Kitchen, not Clinton, not "HK").

Hands down the best burger on the West Side -- why?
-juicy burgers
-sesame seed buns (soft and chewy, like potato bread!)
-beer battered fries
-they offer a healthy salad as a side to aid digestion (need ruffage when eating all that meat)

Great beer selection and the TVs are all flatscreens.  Overall a great place -- the wings are top notch too!

Tell Mr. Bigg that Clarence sent ya! :)

Sapporo East  

Categories: Japanese, Sushi Bars
Neighborhood: East Village

4 star rating

One of the *first* Japanese restaurants in the East Village circa the early 80s...it was here that I first heard New Order, Depeche Mode and other classic 80s brit-synth bands blasted on their stereo.

After 15+ years:
-the bento boxes are still a bargain...
-the sushi - ah ok, but still better than places in close proximity
-the udons and soups - while not "gourmet" like a certain momo place across the street, they are dependable.

You will enjoy a no-frills satisfying meal here without breaking the bank -- for sure!

smooth, swirly, white, milky, goodness -- and that's just the people waiting on line!

the first of the fro-yo establishments -- yep, you can blame PB for all the other places popping up...but it's still the one with that original tartness and good cut pieces of fruit and other sweet goodies.

forget going to a bar to meet a cute date -- just start chatting with one of the lovelies on line here!!  It works for ME!

Fave Apple store in NYC.

Electronics, computers, Europeans!  Galore!

Best thing of all....the clear staircase...perfect for the voyeur.  Ladies, make sure you're not wearing anything provacative!

Artichoke Basille's Pizza & Brewery  

Category: Pizza
Neighborhood: East Village

5 star rating
 6/9/2008 1 photo  
I can't decide which one I like better:
- The Sicilian
- The Neapolitan

The Spinach & Artichoke slice is very rich, delicious and filling.  Be forewarned  -- have this first and you'll be too full to finish a sicilian or a neapolitan.

Although the hours can be erratic -- they do make heavenly pizza!  The hype is well worth it....the lines are well deserved....and most importantly -- after years of enduring sub-par pizza in Manhattan, the title for best slice comes back to Manhattan!  

Thanks Artichoke!

Red Mango  

Category: Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
Neighborhood: Greenwich Village

4 star rating
 5/30/2008  
House music: Check
Aesthetically pleasing interior: Check
FroYo and fruit: Check

Wait a minute?  Am I in Pinkberry?

Red Mango actually had the concept first in Korea before Pinkberry 'borrowed' the store concept and opened in LA.

But head to head, which one is better?  Pinkberry gets points for clean, uniform, metro-sexual friendly stores and nicer looking fresh cuts of fruit, but Red Mango wins on FroYo taste!

Love this location for the back garden -- it's where I take all my lady-friends!

Tiffin Wallah  

Categories: Indian, Vegetarian, Kosher
Neighborhood: Flatiron

4 star rating
 4/17/2008  
I came here for dinner with a friend and there was a loud group of people near the front.  Were they celebrating a birthday party or something?  They were drinking and shouting and at one point one of the women started singing.  

Anyway, back to the food.  Luckily, Tiffin Wallah doesn't disappoint -- serving food that adheres to Aruveydic principles, I found the flavors of sweet, tart, hot and salt present in many of the assorted dishes we ordered.  Definitely get the cashew appetizer and the Palaak Paneer!

Will go back when it is hopefully less rowdy!
