abc kitchen / new york

the same way i have a shopping list for whenever i go to new york, i also keep a list places to eat. i try to go to the spots i haven’t been to. abc kitchen was on the list.

it is conveniently located, close to our favourite shops on fifth avenue, near union square,  at the back of abc carpet.

we went for a quick lunch, and the menu, by jean georges, includes organic and the freshest local ingredients. the atmosphere is casual and happy.

we shared a few starters, our favorites were the crab toast with lemon aioli and the tuna sashimi marinated with ginger and mint.

i had a big kale craving so i had the kale salad with lemon, serranos and mint, for entree. it was delicious, but my mouth waters just as i think of the veggie burger i also tried. with minted yogurt and whole wheat pita, it was to die for.

lately, i’ve been trying to cut on sweets and desserts, but we couldn’t resist on sharing the salted caramel ice cream with candied peanuts and popcorn – a huge sin but so worth it!

next time, i will sure try their dinner menu.

i’m back in provo, just made a quick stop in new york on the way here – a stress (pollution and confusion) fix before heading to the quiet island life is always a good idea.

the weather was amazing, luckily, because i’m not sure i could get used to freezy days anymore. i got to see a broadway show i had on the pipeline for a while, the book of mormon. did a little shopping…i had been anxiously waiting for the summer collections! and meet up with friends for brunch at the fat radish, the breslin and abc kitchen.
