One nice night at the beginning of October, my girlfriend and I decided to meet for dinner at the David Burke Tavern. It’s located at 135 East 62nd Street between Lexington and Park Avenues. Until I started researching for this article, I didn’t realize David Burkes’s fame.


So, what did I decide to order?
I was super hungry, so I chose the Brined and Roasted Chicken with toasted farro, wild mushrooms, and kale. It was great!
With the Roasted Chicken dish, I ordered a side of Brussels sprouts. I love Brussels Sprouts. These were delicious!
Next time you’re in The Bloomingdale, Upper East Side area, I heartily recommend the David Burke Tavern. The food was fabulous!
