I think its awkward trying to manage multiple friendships at a girls night out dinner. I can't keep up with my own lies half the time. This was a particularly daunting task the other night. There were only 6 of us- I think- yet, it seemed like such a struggle. I couldn't focus on the ones I'm closest to while juggling the rest of the table. Maybe its an insecurity thing or just some ineptness at dealing with groups. Or maybe its all the half truths I tell. Its like I'm just waiting to get busted the entire time. Twos a party, three's a crowd. WTF. How about 6 or even more? I can't be the many different mes all at once. UGh...
Could blue ribbon bakery be the best restaurant in nyc? I mean its literally perfect for every occasion. Dates, groups(need >5 for rese), uneasy parent dinners-you name it(well, maybe not affairs) and every time its amazing. I know there is new competition in the hood- market table, the little owl but BRB is the gold star, the first child, the overachiever. The menu works for all types of eaters which is key, especially for a table of girls. Heavy list of apps and first courses is huge and the main dishes never disappoint. There is always plenty to do after, although I'm finding the after these days to be annoying. I'm fine at the local wine bar but anything else seems like SUCH a drag. And the demise of any ounce of Sunday productivity.
Speaking of wine bars and the west village, there are new ones popping up everyday. Right around the corner on Washington between West 11th and Perry there is construction and its rumored to be a new wine bar. Thats almost equidistant between the otheroom and turks & frogs. Both favorites.
