So the story goes…

All of us at FIN have been hard at work with the remodeling of the interior (closed for the last week…SCORE!) And the temporary close could not have come at a better time for all of us.
Let me bring you up to speed.
As it turns out…my shit is fucked both sideways to Friday.
My boyfriend turned

Super Sized Sex~

This is between you…and me.
You may have picked up on the hints of me having a late night suitor.
No?
OMG, if I had been any more in your face about it, I would have needed to jump around naked and scream, “I’m crushin’ on a guy!”
What’s the matter with you? Are you not paying attention?

NYC Snow in!

Last night was a total bust in some respects but a total blast in others.
The bust= only 20 people showed up on a Friday night and now I don’t know if my check will cash next pay day.
The Blast= we played all night!
Manny decided to go all authentic on us and made this amazing family

NYC Snow Storm!!!

I woke up to a different world today!
Nothing outside of my window is familiar. The lack of traffic noise is eerie.
I went out with my son to get my morning coffee, and the air feels like there is a mute button pushed down somewhere. When I stepped off of our front stoop I was accosted

Blind date disaster (the final chapter)

Things are moving so fast!

FIN has been really buzzing lately!
Telulah and Delroy have started this awesome Lounge Night in the bar. Both of them have a such a huge collection of music that I doubt you could get a better mix anywhere in the city!
We have a Fin Restaurant Group fan page on Facebook that seems to be really

Update, broad strokes

You can repeat after me or just hum along if you don’t know the

Margarita Chicken Soup (for the soup lover in you)

I am just loving the cold weather this winter!
It has been such a long time since we actually had anything resembling a good old fashioned snow blasted winter that I actually feel a lot of nostalgia swirling around my heart lately.
Memories of snow days spent outside playing tackle football, or ice skating at the town

My Tomato Bitch = Gross

More food stories, people!
I have been really digging deep and trying to come up with the most pivotal moments in my life that could have caused this strange love of food in me.
OK, sometimes I hate it…like when I really really wish that I liked sandwiches as much as everyone around me.
But I just don’t.
