La Masseria NY
great spot for a proper date. we were recommended this spot by our hotel concierge for an authentic italian w cozy vibes/not try-too-hard and it delivered. the staff were funny and friendly yet extremely professional.
unfortunately, to my regret, we didn't get to try their pasta as it was super late when we got there (and who eats carbs at 11 PM? [the italian inside of u is screaming at me en, SIA])
, so we settled for a salad w a side of grilled chicken and an actual chicken w a side of a potato/beans/tomato which could have used salt or more seasoning but the chicken itself was perfectly cooked.
overall it's a grown ups restaurant, proper for introductory dates and great food. will definitely be back to try their pasta this time.
oh, almost forgot, the tiramisu was great. it was more of a tiramisu cake, i would've liked a bit more of a coffee dip on the base but i guess bc it was a cake they can't leave it in espresso to absorb the flavour as long as lady fingers. anywho, didn't take away from the overall amazing flavour. thanks la masseria server who reminded us to try it.

MEXiCUE
absolutely mind-blown by the smoked chicken (both burrito and taco), must try! it's a bit spicy and creamy and the chicken was cooked to perfection, hands down one of the best i've ever had.
also, strongly recommend their spicy margarita if u have an appetite for hot stuff.
the shrimp taco was also good but must be eaten right away, i'd still go for the grilled chicken.

Choco Churros
By far the best churros i've had, and I've had churros at a wide range of restaurants and nothing ever tops this, just great. Perfectly crispy, not rock hard after 2 minutes, perfectly balanced in terms of sweetness. I recommend the caramel flavour.
