Restaurant Week in NYC 2023
Back in January, I had a chance to check out NYC Restaurant Week, but I am a tad bit late in sending this. Life has been lifing. I was able to check out a few restaurants between Manhattan and Brooklyn. Lagos TSQ, Jasmine's Caribbean Cuisine and BLVD Bistro are all Black-owned businesses. I enjoyed all my meals at each location. I go into detail about each restaurant below!
Bottomless Brunch at Lido in Harlem
This restaurant is named after Lido di Venezia, the famous beach in Italy, the playground of film stars, fashion icons, The Venice Film Festival and of course, Josephine Baker in her heyday.
For the Strength of Harlem
For the Strength of Harlem is a book about Mr. Pleas (pronounced Plez) Tusant Pearson, the man in the middle of the historical photo with Malcolm X and Muhammad Ali, taken in 1963; he was a Community Activist and Entrepreneur.
