New York Delights 🌟

🐮 Braised Beef Cheeks The beef cheeks are tender and chewy, somewhere between short ribs and beef brisket. The seasoning is light, letting the natural flavor shine through. It’s super savory! 🍖 🦆 Roast Duck The duck has thin, crispy skin that’s juicy and tender. It’s so good you just want to pick it up and eat it with your hands! The mashed potatoes are as smooth as cream cheese. 🫕 gotta say, Eastern Europeans really know how to handle potatoes! 🥔 🐟 Branzino Fillet The branzino with its crispy skin is pretty good, but compared to the other standout dishes, it feels a bit ordinary. 🐟 🍰 Napoleon The No. 1 Napoleon in New York truly lives up to its reputation! The flaky pastry with air pockets pairs perfectly with the rich cream. Each bite is a burst of sweet, dense happiness! 🍰 🍯 Medovik (Honey Cake) This honey cake is sweet but not overwhelming. Its delicate and soft texture instantly soothes any tired soul! 🍯 The restaurant has a charming country vibe during the day, but at night, it transforms into a cozy, dimly lit castle. The dual styles are such a delightful surprise! ✨ It feels like a place that Lolitas would love—sweet, savory, and a touch of dark elegance. 📍 Mari Vanna #NYCExploration #NYCDining 🌃🌟
