prune

 I spent last weekend in NYC with

my good old friend, Joelle.
(check out her blog)

We had such an amazing time together as always.

I was so happy when we stumbled upon

PRUNE

in the East Village.

Blood, Bones & Butter was written by 

Gabrielle Hamilton, the owner.

 So small, so perfect.

The hostess + bartender could not have been nicer .

We cozied up to the bar and had

the most delicious appetizers:

 crabbiest crabcake...the best I've ever had.

 Shrimp, head + all...YUM.

Celery salad with a piece of toast with the
creamiest slice of blue cheese.

Oh the wine...I had the Rosé...crisp + dry just the way I love it.

The book is a must read.

Get to PRUNE if you can!
