Review: Choptank
Friday night Char and I made our way down to the West Village to check out the neighborhood’s newest restaurant, Choptank, right on Bleecker street and Grove, where Anita Lo’s Bar Q used to be. Aside from a few service-related issues, which were understandable given the place isn’t even two months old, Choptank was a delight and I’ll definitely be back.

Bourdain + Bill Murray + Hudson Valley = Awesome...
lepponymous:
Tonight is the Hudson Valley episode of “No Reservations” - I’m really interested to see what restaurants Anthony Bourdain visits for some hopefully great suggestions on places a short ride away from NYC worth checking out.
