It seems that the second a restaurant in NYC (or anywhere, I’d assume) gets featured in a movie, it’s the new tourist hot spot. Well Serendipity 3 […]

Before we get on with the post, incase you’re confused - yes, the title reads “4-Piece” but the box only has 3 truffles in it. I admit it… I have no self control and couldn’t wait until after the photos were taken to dig in. Could you? Yeah, I didn’t think so.
Marie Belle was one […]
