๐ Taylor Swift's Favorite Spot Alert!!
Restaurant Name: Emilioโs Ballato I've been craving this place for soooo long! ๐ญ ๐๐ธ This past Saturday, I met up with a friend at this restaurant. But guess what? We messed up big time. The doors open at 5:00, and I got there at 5:02. Wanna know how long I waited? A whopping three hours!!!!!!! This place is walk-in only, so if you're dying to eat here, go on a weekday or earlier in the day. Don't make the same mistake we did! ๐ฑ ๐๐ธ After waiting for so long, we finally got inside. The restaurant is super tiny and cozy, with only seven tables. The walls are covered in pics of celebs like Rihanna (any familiar faces?). ๐ The pre-meal bread is super yummyโsoft and not greasy at all. ๐ Then came the famous chicken parm. It lived up to the hype! Sooo delicious!!๐ฅฐ ๐๐ธ The chicken was tender, and the sauce was the star. Even though the portion looked huge, my friend and I polished it off in no time. We were still savoring the flavors long after we finished. It was incredibly amazing. For pasta, we tried the ravioli and linguine, which were good but couldn't beat the chicken. The tiramisu for dessert was pretty legit and quite traditional. ๐๐ธThe atmosphere of the restaurant is super, super nice. Even though I waited for three hours, the moment I took a bite of that chicken, it felt like it was all worth it. This place definitely makes it into my top five favorite Italian spots in New York. Highly recommended! โค๏ธ #NewYorkLife #TaylorSwift #NewYorkFoodie ๐๐
