It’s fine dining in New York, but away from New York. It’s farm to table dining with a location in Manhattan and the other at Stone Farms, which is the recommended full experience. It was definitely one of my better fine dining experiences globally.

The pastry chef and co-owner is Chika Tillman, hence the name ChikaLicious. The divey looking location is unassuming and all the desserts are gourmet, made in house with high quality ingredients and at fine dining standards.

It’s a local favourite and family owned institution in New York since 1888. I refrain from calling it a “deli”, because it isn’t. Many people call it a “deli”, but it’s actually an “appetizing store” and one of the very few remaining ones in New York.
The set up is just like a frozen yogurt shop and you can select toppings, or “Jesus droppings”, to go on top of your rice pudding. It’s rice pudding for the 21st century and it puts a modern twist to an old fashioned comfort food.
“Chicken & Rice”, “The Platter”, “The Halal Guys”, “Gyro-Spot”, “Chicken Guys”, The food cart on 53rd and 6th”, or whatever the name you know it by, you can’t miss this in Manhattan, New York! It’s no doubt a soft spot for the locals.

Peasant looked, felt and tasted like the real Italian deal. It’s a local favourite and truly a hidden gem. I tried over 50+ restaurants in two weeks in New York, and this was one of my favourites, so I’d definitely say it’s a must try.
