I remember Paris. This is New York.Paris is the "City of Lights" New York is the "city that never sleeps" In comparing both of these cities, there is always so much to see and do and...EAT. There is fabulous cuisine around every corner, even down to the smallest section of the city where you would least expect it.
In NYC I give you Paname!
It was my birthday and I wanted to spend a day in 'my hometown. Sounds hokey, I know. However as I said explore, find something you have not seen or done in a long time or even something you have never done and go out and do that very thing. It will make you happy. My spouse and I did just that. We spent the morning trolling through a few museums, made our way to see one Central Park landmark and ended our evening at this French restaurant called Paname (which is the slang for Paris).
The menus offered ranged from a standard mix and match to a 3-course Prix Fixe meal.
Seafood is their specialty and they certainly lived up to it. We chose the prix fixe because it was the best value and you would receive an appetizer, entree and dessert all for under $40.00 per person. I ordered the tomato mozzarella and basil appetizer with the Penne Shrimp au Vermouth and the Creme Brulee for dessert. Well seriously Creme Brulee is the most awesome french dessert ever!
The entire staff was attentive, We did not want for water because our glasses were never empty. We loved the atmosphere, the food, and the ambiance. There was soft music playing in the air, dimmed lighting as the dinner crowd arrived, fresh flowers and candles on every table. These little touches added to an already chic decor and you have that little taste of Paris here in the good ole U.S. of A.
I was very pleased at the level of service provided at this local establishment. Local in this case fit for the atmosphere and the food, although the taste was very chic and European.
My husband whom has never eaten French food before was impressed as well.
I wholeheartedly recommend that if you are ever on the East side of Manhattan in the mid to upper 50's that you stop in for the food, the atmosphere and the #new yorkbestvalue.
