Zahav is always a wonderful dining experience. Delicious and well executed food coupled with simple but impeccable service. Plus, the bartenders are just as entertaining as the unique drinks that they serve. Ambiance: Open air space but warmly lit and simply decorated. It's a place that's great for a date, a group, random catchups and everything in between. Service: Consistently friendly and helpful. They all seem to really know the menu and whenever I have asked for their recommendations I have always been more than satisfied. Food: 9/10 it is always a hit amidst my tastebuds. I think there was only one or two dishes in the few times that I have gone to Zahav that were less than memorable. To highlight the one's that shine in my mind.. The salatim and hummus is unmatched along with their fresh made laffa that accompanies this beginning excursion of flavors into the Middle East palate. Their fried cauliflower and crispy halloumi are one of my most memorable starters there. I also had the best salmon of my life at Zahav. The salmon was quality enough to be eaten raw and was cooked accordingly. Tender and moist with a subtle smoked flavor. I am not sure if this is still on the menu but take this as indication of the kitchen's ability to cook and smoke meats to perfection. As for desserts, I am always a sucker for their classic konafi, which is a nice clean end to your meal. Drinks: For a complete experience at Zahav, I really encourage trying some of their signature cocktails. If you enjoy your savory cocktails, try their Whiskey Harif which I can best explain as liquified BBQ smokehouse air. Which I just realized may not sound as appetizing... It is made with whiskey infused with smoky peppers so the heat of the drink only hits you in the back of your mouth. It's got a powerful flavor punch so I would not drink this with your meal. Another recommendation is to check out the bar for some drinks and other various menu items, the bartenders are friendly and more than helpful if you are tentative of trying cocktails out of your normal range of gin and tonic. Last thing... I really enjoyed their offering of a Late Harvest Gewurztraminer which is not as syrupy sweet as most Late Harvests. I realize at this point I may be sounding like some love-sick Zahav sycophant so I'm going to stop. But I hope you try it and I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

On Columbus around the corner from 72nd street, you will find this basement latin club. The security is paid to be as rude and ignorant as possible. I didn't have a problem but everyone in front of me and behind me had some kinda beef. $10 cover is standard these days for a club. Happy hour ran until 7PM (2 for 1 drinks) but after that, the prices shot up quick. As in most spanish clubs, the old guys get their grind on early...snatchin up all the pretty ladies that don't mind dancin with an older gentlemen. Later on in the night, there is a live band that plays salsa music. Sound good so far? Why the 2 stars? I'm getting there. This place is a sweat box. The crowd goes real grimy REALLY quick after 11PM. With the exception of the spanish music, the rest is out-dated and not mixed very well. It seemed as if the bartender stuck to the guidelines of drink pouring (in other words, the "short pour") for me even though I was tipping the whole time. If you are a tad more "mature" in age and want to enjoy some latin tunes with a touch of Tribe called Quest, check this spot out for a couple of hours.....AFTER WORK. This ain't the Copa. Younger? Pass. Take your $10 cover to a place more suited to your tastes.

Ok. First, I'd like to buy a vowel. That vowel would be "O" as in "Oh my god, will they please seat us soon?!?" Or, "E" as in "Eek! They are trying to seat 9 of us into a very small booth!" We're small, guys, but DAMN! Give a girl some space! Or, "A" as in "Ahhhh....why are all these men leering?" But that's another story. Or, "U" as in "You should get the appetizers for sure. They are damn good. My large group tried everything from the shrimp rice krispies (yum!) to the blue cheese/iceberg salad (great!) to the fois gras french toast (cool!). Or "I" as in "I can't recommend with my whole heart but just with, to paraphrase Janis Joplin, a little piece of my heart, baby. And "Y" -because I like you. (Insert "M-O-U-S-E.")
