"Maybe the first time you two ate together, your meal consisted of a couple of slices, and neither of you were particularly sober. Now that you’ve grown, changed, and developed emotions that are equal parts confusing and exciting, it’s time to sit in a nice room and use silverware to eat a plate of food. If you’re on the UWS, we suggest Marlow Bistro. It’s a Mediterranean spot where you can eat some solid pastas and thin-crust pizzas in a charming space with tiled floors and lots of plants." - bryan kim
