Date Night in NY

Was Carrie Bradshaw right, is NY obsessed with dating and dining? There are countless websites devoted to reviewing NY restaurants and one common search thread on all of these sites are “Date Spots”.

“Dating in New York... is no picnic. But let’s say that, through some quirk of dinner party seating or online profiling, you meet someone. Where to take them?” According to an article in the NY Times this week, "white table cloths and fancy dining are out… underground joints serving tapas and tater tots are in!" These days, it’s all about finding the hidden gems with good food and creative cocktails. Where the ambiance is focused more on the food and less about the décor. And of course, the economy has also shifted the allure to a more casual dining. It’s those restaurants that can creatively combine these elements by offering a new edge that become sought after.

And as Carrie Bradshaw says “life’s what happens when you’re busy making other plans. But sometimes in New York, life is what happens when you’re waiting for a table.”
