New York Restaurant Week $45 – Every Dish Was a Delight 🍽️

🌸Hidden Behind a Secret Door Beauty & Essex I chose a restaurant hidden inside a pawn shop – at first, I really couldn't find the entrance! 🕵️‍♂️ 🍃 Once I pushed the door open, I was greeted by a stunningly luxurious dining room. The atmosphere was incredible – perfect for a date. The dim lighting and the spiral staircase made me feel like I'd stepped into a movie scene. I knew I'd made the right choice! 🌟 I didn't have high expectations for the menu – I mainly came for the ambiance. But wow, every dish was thoughtfully designed and full of flavor – so delicious that I was almost in tears!😭 🌟 Appetizers Tuna Wonton Tacos: Super yummy – crispy and satisfying. The raw tuna inside was perfect. The seasoning made every bite heavenly! Dirty Tater Tots: These were amazing – topped with caviar, and the potato balls were large and delicious. 🌟 Main Courses Gochujang Salmon: The presentation was stunning – served on a bed of black rice. The salmon was perfectly seasoned, and paired with kimchi, it was out of this world! My friend and I couldn't stop raving about it. 🎢 Braised Short Ribs: The beef was slow-cooked to perfection – rich and flavorful. The corn was a delightful surprise – how can corn be this delicious? And of course, the creamy mashed potatoes were my favorite part! 🌟 Desserts Doughnuts: I loved these! Besides chocolate and strawberry sauce, there was also caramel sauce – so rich and delicious. Dipping the doughnuts into the sauces was pure bliss. Strawberry Shortcake: The sweetness was just right, not cloying at all. The cream inside was incredibly smooth. 🌊 In short, every dish was a delightful surprise – so tasty that I felt full and satisfied after the three-course meal. The ambiance is perfect for a date, with a sexy vibe that makes the whole experience unforgettable. I'll definitely be coming back! 💕 📍 Beauty & Essex 146 Essex St, New York, NY 10002 🌸 #NewYorkRestaurantWeek 🍽️ #NewYorkExploration 🌆🌟
