4.6/5

My girlfriend said, “Let’s do something special” and go somewhere that we never heard of.” She picked the restaurant One if by Land, Two if by Sea located at 17 Barrow Street in Manhattan’s West Village.

No name on the door but interesting.

This building was once a carriage house with an accompanying barn when Aaron Burr was Attorney General of the State of New York during the 1790s. Here he housed his coach and horses. It happens that the restaurant was voted the 5th most romantic restaurant in the world.

What you see when you first walk in.

The bar and dining areas.

We ordered from the Prix Fixed Menu. Pricey but worth the ambiance and delicious food.

 I started with Baby Greens, piquillo peppers, Bulgarian feta, and oregano vinaigrette.

The vegetables were fresh and crisp, and the Bulgarian feta cheese was excellent!

For the main dish, I chose the Pan Roasted Branzino with baby squash, and sauce Vierge. Vierge is from French cuisine, comprised of olive oil and lemon juice base on tomatoes. Included were cured olives, pinenuts, and herb pesto. Fresh and excellent.

Dessert.

I chose coconut ice cream over shortbread cookies and a mixed berry compote on the side. 

The combination of the textures and the tastes was fantabulous and highly recommended.

One of by Land, Two if by Sea is the choice for a special, restaurant experience. It won’t disappoint!

Drinking in America at the Minetta Lane Theater

Royo delivered a resounding performance, transforming into over 12 characters experiencing the stages of alcoholism and its effects on each character’s interaction with himself and others. At times, it’s hard to tell who Man is, as his toxic masculinity dominates and elevates with the abuse of alcohol.

Tonight’s O How Good was a celebration of the life of MasterVoices board member Lois Conway and the years of philanthropy and insightful leadership characterizing her service. The venue chosen for this event was inspiring and magnificent and set in New York City’s Central Synagogue, a stunning example of Moorish Revival architecture and a testament to the beauty and richness of Jewish tradition and culture.
