Our daughter-in-law was thrilled to have found this at-home bakery created by Jessica, a NYC flutist as a way to add to & channel more of the "sweet notes" she creates both musically & now, in her wonderful baked goods. The Treats were fresh tasting, just sweet enough & wonderfully dense; nothing like the mass-produced, commercial kind sold by the cereal company. Jessica is a hard working mom, musician & baker & we highly recommend her & Sweet Note Bakeshop.

Great store with a lot of international products!…read more However, I've noticed a change lately in the cheese department. The store seems to be focusing more on expensive organic products, but unfortunately the quality control on some of the cheeses has gone down. I've purchased several cheeses here recently that tasted over-aged and strongly ammoniated. Properly aged European cheeses should have complex, nutty, earthy flavors -- not a harsh ammonia taste or smell. This has happened multiple times now. One of the biggest issues is that everything is prepackaged in plastic, so you cannot properly smell or assess the cheese before buying it. You only discover the problem once you get home and open the package. A good cheese counter should allow customers to smell or sample cheeses, especially imported and aged varieties.

I discovered Branzino's at our Farmers Market - their fish is worth the price. Everything tastes…read moreexcellent with good fish it turns out. Fresh salmon steaks, fresh cod for stew or soup, thick cod for baked cod with miso-butter bread crumbs, fresh halibut with garlic rice and cherry tomatoes. Their Inwood storefront is old school spacious with signs identifying the kind of fish and they will deliver to many neighborhoods including Riverdale.

I want to like this place but they are doing some shady business with the scale and charging more…read morethan they should. For example, if I ask for half a pound of something they will give me a quarter pound yet charge for a half a pound. This has happened three times. I called them on it the last time I was in there. The clerk told me it's because they weigh the paper with the fish. Okay, fine, but that doesn't change the fact that I only received 1/4 pound of fish, and 1 ounce of paper when I weighed the two separately at home, and was still charged for a 1/2 pound. I know that all scales are going to be slightly different from each other but I have a very accurate scale at home and there is no reason why the weight should differ by 3-5 ounces from the scale that they have at the store. Do it once, it's a mistake but three times makes it seem intentional. The quality of the fish is very good, which is why I gave one star, but I doubt that I'll be back.

So happy I remembered Unique when I was craving Thai for lunch. Took a quick walk over and was…read morepleased to see they have lunch specials! I ordered their drunken noodle and a salad to go (there are a bunch of other options) for $12.95. Perfect and fresh! Their food tastes so homemade and the flavors are different from other Thai spots in the area. Will continue to add Unique to the rotation. Service is quick and sweet.

I was in the area and decided to stop by on a whim without looking at reviews. While this place…read moremarkets itself as Thai and hibachi, the Thai offerings account for a very small portion of the menu. If you are looking for Thai, I'd probably go elsewhere. In any case, I didn't heed my own advice and ordered Thai anyway... the chicken drunken noodle dish to be precise. However, I found that it didn't taste like any drunken noodle I've had before. It was very mild in flavor with no discernible spice or sweetness. I'd say it was closer to a pad see ew. Despite all this, I have to say I didn't mind that it wasn't the dish I'm used to. I would have been disappointed, for sure, if I would have been craving drunken noodles, but it still ended up being a good stir fry so I gobbled it up. The portion was large. Service was quick and attentive. Looks like this is a family business with multigenerational staff pitching in as needed. That is nice to see and support. If I am in the area and craving Asian cuisine, I may return for the hibachi (and the ice cream I heard two people ordering). I would likely skip the Thai though if you are looking for more "typical" flavors.

I'm not usually a lumpia person, but Patok by Rach fully converted me…read more Dangerous drinks. They're sweet enough to completely mask the alcohol, and they're definitely on the stronger side. The garlic rice is absolutely worth the extra $3, no question. And all of the pickled veggies across dishes were standouts (bright, flavorful, and balanced everything really well). The chicken bao was probably my favorite bite. It was packed with meat and layered with pickled veggies, would probably order a full plate of those (wish I had taken a better picture). The lechon isn't the traditional rolled style--it's more like softer chicharrones with two large sheets of crispy skin. Not traditional, but honestly delicious and very satisfying texture-wise. Not pictured but took the ube flan and regular flan home and it was delicious. Not sure what they add to the caramel but it felt slightly richer than usual. Super good.

I had a wonderful meal here with my kids. At first I thought I was at the Bronx and even though…read morethey're at the edge, they are most definitely located in New York. Parking was. A little bit of a challenge being on the street and I really didn't feel like parking a distance so after a few circles, I was able to park my car a few doors down. Maybe best to plan ahead at busy times. I came wjth my three kids and we ordered Lumpia Shanghai which was gone in an instant. We then settled for Adobo, Sinigang, Sisig and Fried Chicken. The whiff of the food definitely brings you back to the motherland. The spices and even the way it's cooked. Everything is authentic! Had I had a bigger appetite, I would have had a slice of the ube cake on the counter. Also, can't forget the calamansi juice! So refreshing! Everyone is extremely friendly and beyond respectful. The next time I come back, I'm looking forward to eating Kamayan style.

So you have to factor in convenience when determining the status of this place. The stock is larger than the other "fresh market", and they are open longer. Plus. I've had to check the dates on a couple things though. Nothing has ever been overdue, but they do play it close to the wire. I'm suspecting because this place is pretty mom and pop. The stock also goes beyond the strictly generic brands you find in the Rite Aid Pharmacy. I ad a good conversation with one of the staff. So factor in friendly.
