Cheapeats was able to eat green by going Vegetarian last week. But what about when you want to meet friends for a drink? No problem. We got you covered. Jimmy’s No 43 is like a cavern tucked away in the heart of the East Village. Take the metal stairs downstairs into the pub that’s filled […]

Fabiane’s in Williamsburg is shaking things up. This spot offer creative sandwiches like smoked duck, turkey with cranberry chutney and homemade chicken pot pie.

Cheapeats was recently hanging out in Williamsburg and found a great spot called Relish. This eclectic restaurant is housed in a old fashioned silver dining car. But old fashioned, it’s not. The menu features seasonal, organic and sustainable ingredients. Grass fed beef burgers which turned my friend who eats turkey burgers only, into a fan. […]

How many times are you asked…”How can you live in New York?” It’s so crowded. It smells. It’s expensive. It’s nothing but concrete. Yes, there are some truths to those statements, but there is a side of New York that many aren’t aware of. There are many green spots around to allow us to become one […]

A Green Bakery has come to New York both in design and ingredients. Birdbath, with locations in the West and East Village is an amazement to the senses. Walls made from wheat. Their biodegradable cups are made from corn. Their displays and counter are made from recycled paper. Wind powered. Reclaimed wood. Water based paints. […]
