"When you have friends visiting and want to take them out bar hopping, you can’t go to a quiet dinner before telling them to flip the party switch in their heads. Instead, you start the night at Chubby Noodle. It’s one of the more fun restaurants in the city, and while people like coming here for bottomless brunch, the food is better at dinner. Plus, you feel much less obligated to drink everything as fast as you can. Get a reservation for your group, be sure to order the garlic noodles with fried chicken and some sake, and start talking about where you’re heading next." - Will Kamensky
