      I came to Evan with a legal issue and he was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and professional. Highly recommend Evan and would come back to him again if I need him.

      I went to Gramercy Terrace for breakfast with my family the other day for their breakfast and it was one of the best breakfasts I have ever had.

      Like the name suggests, Gramercy Terrace is located a few floors up of the Gramercy Park Hotel. It has giant windows which makes for looking over the city a joy. It has a very natural feel to it with the terrace being decorated with lots of plants all around you. It has also has very comfortable seating. It's a perfect place for breakfast with the family or if you wanted to get some work done on your laptop.

      For the food, like usual, we each ordered something off of the menu and shared a little bit of our plate with each other. I ordered the blueberry pancakes with potatoes while my family ordered the omelet, poached eggs, and the smoked salmon bagel.

      I have to write a paragraph on just the pancakes alone because I've never had pancakes as delicious and mouth watering as these. As soon as they came out, they had a rich brown/gold color about them which screamed "cooked to perfection". As soon as I poured the warm maple syrup over them and saw how easily my knife cut through the soft pancake, I knew I had a real treat on my hands. As the taste hit my palate I knew I hit gold. I kept eating more and more of the pancake and each time the pancake was cut effortlessly by the knife and was still so warm that I almost burned my tongue multiple times. If this review was on this pancake alone, it would easily be a 5 out of 5. This dish is a MUST if you go there for breakfast.

      Another good dish was the poached eggs with collards and hollandaise sauce on a jalapeno cornbread. The taste of all the ingredients really hits your mouth. Excellent dish.

      I've had very good smoked salmon bagels before but this one was good, but not great. Although the smoked salmon was tasty and well cooked, the cream cheese was something to be desired. The omelet was nothing special as well. Very ordinary with the usual ingredients. Not bad but not worth the trip to this restaurant.

      The prices were fair. Not expensive and worth the money. Overall, this restaurant is definitely worth the time if you live in New York City of simply visiting. Please get the pancakes though, you will not be disappointed.

      I heard about ABC Kitchen from a friend who recommended trying it while I was visiting New York. I went there with two of my friends during lunch time on a random day of the week. We didn't have a reservation but the hostess sat us at a table near the bar. The decor of the place was really nice and interesting as it spoke upscale yet modern.

      Our servers were extremely nice and they came around so often to check up on us or to switch out our silverware that it seemed almost unordinary but I definitely did not mind.

      i ordered the lunch prix fixe for 32 dollars and had myself the sweet pea soup with carrots and mint which tasted delicious and for pea soup it seemed very light. We had another appeitizer for free due to an error on the server but we did not complain. We didn't even know what it was until the waitress told us it was fluke, which is a very light fish, sprinkled with many different herbs. It had an odd taste but tasty nontheless.

      For the entree I had the ricotta and farm egg raviolo with chilies, mint and parmesan. The mixture of the sauce and farm egg worked wonderfully together. Everything was perfectly cooked and was also very light. My friends ordered the mushroom, parmesan, oregano and farm egg pizza which I heard was one of their more popular dishes and it did not disappoint. Cooked wonderfully.

      And for the dessert, which I would recommend to anyone who goes there, I ordered the lemon bundt cake with whipped cream and orange ice cream. The orange ice cream was a little too sweet for my taste but the lemon bundt cake with small chocolate grazings over it really did it for me. It was heaven after the first bite. My friends assured me they were full before the dessert came but once they saw my expression after the first bite, they had to try it for themselves and they enjoyed every bite.

      I highly recommend this place if you're visiting in New York as it's a hot spot for not only tourists but locals and celebrities as well. Not too expensive for a semi-upscale place and definitely worth it. I left feeling full yet not bloated or lethargic which a testament to the high quality of food that they serve.

      One of the best clubs in the world! I absolutely loved my time at Club Privilege. I went to Ibiza in the summer of 2012 and had to go to Armin's A State of Trance. Tickets were 80 euro which I think is a steal!

      I got there at 11:30 which I was told by a British girl on the bus there was super early cause Armin wasn't coming on until 2 or so. But nonetheless my brother and I got in line and were one of the first ones to enter the palace. This had to be the biggest club in the world and I was not mistaken. Over 13,000 people attended the concert that night!

      Four different DJs played that night. Cosmic Gate was on from 12-1:30, Markus Schulz who absolutely killed it was on from 1:30-3, Armin Van Buuren came on from 3-4:30 followed lastly by Dash Berlin who was on from 4:30-6. 6 hours of non stop trance until the sun was literally coming up by the time it was over.

      it's a very big venue with the first floor consisting of two bars, lots of dance room, a pool believe it or not but it's mainly for show although some people did jump in towards the end of the show, and the biggest and best stage I have ever seen. The second floor has another bar, VIP section and a store which you can buy merchandise.

      The sound was AMAZING. Great speakers and wonderful bass. I absolutely loved my time there and cannot wait to hopefully go back some day. If you love trance and want to go to the best club in the world, Club Privilege in Ibiza, Spain is the place to be. It's Ibiza! The name should say it all!

      Being a trance enthusiast, I love seeing my favorite DJs live so I can just rage and lose myself in the music. Sadly there is only one venue in Houston that offers live trance and EDM concerts. I'm not saying Stereo Live isn't a good place but being in the 4th largest city in the US, you would think a better and larger venue would hold trance and EDM music but I guess those genres aren't big enough in the States yet.

      I've been to Stereo Live many times to see DJ's such as Armin Van Buuren who I've seen twice, Paul Van Dyk, BT, and ATB who I've also seen twice to name a few. Stereo Live does a good job on attracting big DJs but management is poor. At my first time seeing ATB the sound went off for 20 mins and we had to wait for the sound to come back on for him to continue playing. Another incident with Armin Van Buuren occurred when Stereo Live oversold the tickets and everyone had to leave the building due to overcrowding. Luckily they let us back in for Armin to finish his set but only after 45 mins of waiting.

      The speakers and the overall sound at Stereo Live is decent at best but like I said before, it's the only venue that holds such music in Houston. I feel bad for my friends who go there and think it's one of the best because there are MUCH better venues for trance but sadly the best Houston has to offer. Overall it's a good time if you enjoy trance/EDM but if you're like me and you've been to the better and bigger venues, you'll walk out wanting more.
