City Food ToursCity Food Tours: The famous choclatier must be doing something right--he's popping up shops all over! Try some of his decadent hot chocolate, or perhaps a truffle is more your style--either way you can't go wrong!

New York HabitatNew York Habitat: The chocolate speaks for itself at Jacques Torres but what goes under the radar is their hot chocolate! Seriously it's almost like drinking melted chocolate. So so good, especially in the wintertime.

Serious EatsSerious Eats: Since these cookies are so chocolate focused, sourcing a really fine bittersweet is key here, this is the time to break out the big guns--Scharffen Berger, Callebaut, or Valrhona are all good picks

Ariel M.Ariel Meade: Delicious house made sodas! And the steak salad was fantastic. I have some very specific food sensitivities & they were amazingly accommodating. Loved the ambiance & warmth.

The Corcoran GroupThe Corcoran Group: The newest of the 3 Smith restaurants, this one is a welcome addition to the area. We love to start with the potato chips and blue cheese fondue, followed by the lobster roll or roasted chicken salad.

Jack P.Jack Price: ok the fucking mac and cheese here is actually the most ridiculous taste I can't even try to describe it, go here if you ever have the pleasure of being in the vicinity
