Where I eat, and what to order

A list I keep adding to, split by city. Every score is mine, out of 10.

11 places so far. Scores are out of 10 and are only mine.

New York

8.7/10

Razza Pizza Artigianale

Pizza, Jersey City · $$

Order Margherita, the seasonal corn pie, the hazelnut pie

First time here and we loved it. The weirder pizzas are some of the best you'll have.

8.6/10

Murray's Bagels

Bagel shop · $

Order Cinnamon raisin bagel with strawberry cream cheese

Some of the best bagels in New York. It's a classic, and I go every time.

8.5/10

Joe's Pizza

Pizza · $

Order A slice of cheese

Some of the most classic New York pizza there is. You walk in, ask for a slice, and they hand you a cheese slice.

8.4/10

Peter Luger Steak House

Steakhouse · $$$

Order T-bone with the steak sauce

Classic steakhouse. You have to go at least once.

8.1/10

Una Pizza Napoletana

Pizza · $$

Order The classic Margherita

Very premium pizza, and you can feel the culture behind it. They only let you order one pizza per guest. The other pies are twists on the Margherita, and I liked them less.

Toronto

9.1/10

Black + Blue

Steakhouse · $$$$

Order Tomahawk, tenderloin

One of the more modern steakhouses I've been to, only a couple of years ago. I still crave that steak, and the desserts were amazing.

8.9/10

Akira Back

Japanese · $$$

Order Wagyu roll, wagyu nigiri, wagyu tacos, miso black cod

Very wagyu heavy. Every bite had a burst of flavour and the textures were perfect.

8.7/10

Kela Greek Frozen Yogurt

Frozen yogurt · $$

Order Coffee dulce de leche sauce

Some of the best Greek frozen yogurt I've ever had. Get the coffee dulce de leche sauce.

8.6/10

Futura Granita + Gelato

Gelato · $$

Order The premium pistachio gelato

Some of the best gelato I've had outside of Italy, like a taste of Italy in Toronto. The seasonal flavours switch out often, so I mix up the rest.

7.5/10

Heal Smoothies

Smoothies and bowls · $$

Order The açaí bowl

My old gym was connected to this Heal. It's healthy and filling, like a meal. I switch between a smoothie and a bowl.

Horseheads, NY

8.4/10

Fat City Barbecue

Barbecue

Order The brisket, the cornbread and the mac and cheese

I like their sweet sauce. I think it's the honey barbecue, and it's very good.

I add a place when I have actually eaten there. Tell me where I should go next on the contact page.
