My friend Melissa’s Snapchat story always seems to have a steaming bowl of some variant of Asian soup on it, and I’ve decided that’s the kind of life I’d like to live, so of course I had to try Ippudo Ramen, knownas the best ramen place in the city! To begin, we shared two…
My Summer in Connecticut
Bagels, pizza, diner food, acai bowls… My oh my, how I have missed you! While I may have longed for my favorite Jersey fare while I was away, I definitely did enjoy the foodie finds I came across in Connecticut while I was staying there working on a show last month! Guided by my college…
Eataly
I have seen foodie paradise. It’s real, it’s glorious, and it’s called Eataly. Currently owned by Mario Batali alongside Lidia and Joe Bastianich, (just a handful of Italian idols in the world of cookery), this food hall in the Flatiron District of NYC is (not surprisingly) an absolute dream. Yes, I said food ~hall~ because…

Hey, long time, no blog! Let me tell you about a pretty amazing day. My ever so lovely friend Julia and I lived our dream of seeing Regina Spektor live in concert! This was a day we’d both longed for since freshman year of high school, when we’d play Samson on repeat 50 times and…

Ready for even more yummy foods from my trip to Israel?! Read on… Akko Our visit to the Arab Market in the city of Akko led to lots of glorious food discoveries! Like hummus!

My Trip to Israel! (Part One)
I’m writing to you from good old Jerz, but my heart (and my taste buds) are in the absolutely beautiful land of Israel. In my mind, I’m still walking through the mystical streets of Tzfat, navigating crowded and colorful markets, floating in the crystal clear Dead Sea, and looking up at the stars in the Negev. I’m…
The Hummus House
I’m heading back to ‘Berg so very soon, and I cannot wait!!! So while I not-so-patiently sit here daydreaming of picnics beside Victor’s Lament, fun nights out with the most wonderful people, loads of auditions, a capella love, and late-night runs to GQ, I’ll tell you about my mid-summer visit to my favorite place in…
54 Below & Milk Bar
A few weeks ago, I had the most magical night– at Laura Osnes’s Broadway Disney Princess Party at 54 Below in NYC! If you’re a theatre person, you know that Laura Osnes is basically a goddess, and if you know me, you probably know that she’s my idol. The Broadway Disney Princess Party is a…
Spring Natural & BòCàphê
I recently had a much-needed reunion with one of my college besties, Natalie! We had such a fun day in NYC exploring SoHo, shopping up a storm, and of course, eating! Natalie is a vegetarian, so I wanted to make sure that whatever restaurant we picked had lots of yummy veggie options! My mom is…
Jersey Shore Food Truck Festival
Honestly, what in life is better than a food festival? A food truck festival, of course! I firmly believe that food trucks are magical things with magical powers, because I’ve never had anything but truly amazing food from a food truck. With my usual foodie companion, Julia, by my side I headed to the annual…
