    That's why I watch & I'm subscribed. I respect your honesty I'm constantly telling people you can't always go for what they tell you on social media and you're proving it, thank you.❤

    You can eat rose petals. It’s fine. Has to be food grade to be placed on the food/drink.

    Great video Sarah….and a great assessment of the food. I’m not a fan of most of those things, but others will be rushing to them. I’m surprised the cake in the first one wasn’t all over the place, imagine kids getting into that one 😂❤

    This was super helpful! I’m coming to NYC in a couple weeks with two “tweens” who loved this video.
    Can you please do a NYC summer fashion video sometime? We are coming from TX and plan to make another trip again, but we’d love some guidance on what to wear in the summer to avoid looking like tourists. 😆😬💚

    Another great video and review, Sarah! Since my wife now lives in NYC, your videos have been my go-to source whenever I visit there. I know you've done a video on restaurants, but I'd be great to see a video specifically for brunch spots as well! 😄

  • @mzsantana87

    Ok that cake milk shake looked terrible. Not as in it didn’t look good to my greedy self 😂, but it was just way too much and too messy to try to enjoy. I’ve always wanted to try it, but never got around to stopping by and getting one. I would be so annoyed trying to figure out where to start and watching it melt and fall apart.
    I’m cracking up at you guys trying to talk about the restaurant with the owner or whatever in the back. Lol I’m not a Christmas decoration person, but I feel like the place had too much going on, but they definitely needed the lights low and the Christmas lights being used to light it up. That’s more Christmas year round feel.
    I’m only to the Italian restaurant part, but I had to stop, laugh and write after that Wendy Williams Clip 😂😂😂

    Definitely love that you are reviewing IG hyped restaurants! I’m a big foodie and always look for places on IG. I have a trip planned to New York in December so this will help narrow down what is worth a try.

    foodie social media is interesting… i’m all for the recent boom but i’ve seen local content creators in my area post places that i found just meh/average. so i’ve been taking social media suggestions more lightly now

    Sarah, I'm not going to mince words... I'm just going to come right out and say it: You're fabulous! How about that cupcake spot in the West Village? The one that girls flock instinctively like the Salmon of Capistrano because of a certain HBO program.

    At Black Tap, if you ask them for a plate for the cake, they'll give you a plate. Also their burgers are actually pretty good.

    Hi we are planning on trip to NY next week. Your videos are so helpful!! Thank you!
    I have a question about tipping. Is it must to tip when you take out something too in New York? If yes, what is the average percentage for take out tipping??

    • @LucasHuang
      @LucasHuang ปีที่แล้ว

      For takeout, short answer is no.
      Nowadays they swing the iPad at you expecting you to tip but don't feel pressured like you have to

  • @kentbrasloff3945
    @kentbrasloff3945 ปีที่แล้ว

    Some good finds here. Ate at Rolf's 30 years ago and it was good. Ate there 10 years ago and it was "meh." Not surprised it's only "passable" now. Great ambience but a rip off for food/drink. Too much of a foodie to be a fan of "cutsie" food so will avoid unicorn ice cream and foods that have more than 3 flavors going on. Would love your take on the Fancy Food Show...coming to NYC in the next week or so...fyi!

    Great video, Sarah! You should actually make more of them because a lot of these Instagram locations are NOT worth it. By the way, I'm pretty sure you eat unhealthy sugary or fatty foods just to try them out for your videos - otherwise, it's just impossible as you are so skinny 😊

    If you didn't have much good to say about the restaurant, then I think you could have voiced your opinions over the footage in post to ensure that the owner wouldn't overhear. Sure deep down we'd want the owner to know, but it's also very impolite!
