weekend of the double EFF (aka double F, aka fat fuck)




this weekend was filled with food and drink and a really BAD hangover. 

friday eve me and some friends went to my friend lesly's new venue mr. jones 243 E 14th st btw 2nd and 3rd ave 212.253.7670 this spot is really neat and cozy and has amazing drinks (beware the "mr jones" cocktail (wasabi infused vodka and sake w cucumber) delicious and 1 is enough! do 2 and you'll be extremely sorry the next day (esp if you follow with a vodka red bull and end the night w a jameson!!!) ouch! however they also have great eats at mr jones! we literally ordered the entire menu between me and my 3 friends. the best thing i had was the "blt". this was perfectly cooked large cherry tomatoes sitting on a perfect piece of bib lettuce skewered and wrapped in really good BACON with a dollop of some nice mayo. YUM (we had 2 orders) other yum things to note: the mizuna salad (amazing dressing) and the edamame was some of the best i've ever had.

saturday was spent in bed!!! haven't been that hung over in a WHILE. thankfully some nice guy (aka my amazing boyfriend) managed to go to the store (my fav -choice greene *search previous posts for details) and we made a great bfast. didn't manage to leave until about 7 ish and went to cafe lafayette in ft greene- 99 S Portland Ave 718.858.6821 this is a new found great spot as well. amazing panini's and really nice mezze plate (hummus, tabbouleh, falafel, pita)

sunday was brunch at chez lola- 387 Myrtle Ave, Brooklyn 718.858.1484 (see my food pic above:) yum! and then off to O.G's (original george's) amazing upper west apt for football viewing where of course i brought double eff snacks (cheeto puffs, a variety bag of mini chocolate candy bars (one of the best mixes ever! i feel i may never find again :( snickers, milky way (dark and light), twix, and 3 musketeers) smartfood popcorn and flat pretzels and hummus of course. oh, we also ordered pizza! george's place is PIMP and i now wanna move to the upper west. amazing windows and a window seat covering two walls that could literally fit 20 peeps...
