Restaurant Review: Blue Ribbon NYC



You've been out on the town. You've been enjoying yourself probably more than you should, when suddenly....you are gripped by the unreasonable and uncompromising vice of hunger. You crave a cornucopia of dishes that will ease this growling in your belly. And in this, there will be no negotiating.....If you've been there (and we've ALL been there) then there is only place of safe haven for you. Blue Ribbon Brasserie in SOHO NYC.

As I would always recommend you reserve a table, you just may not have that luxury, so grab a slice of pizza on the way over because....as is NYC....you will be at the bar for awhile waiting for your table (which is OK, as it's open until 4am). The one slice will keep the beast of hunger at bay JUST long enough....and yes that qualifies as a TPC NOTE!

Now...once that is settled...let's keep this simple no need for deep thoughts here. Let's order....

The Fried Oysters (Quite possibly the best I've ever had.....quite possibly)
The Fresh Oysters (Yes I like Oysters...I mean right?) They have a SERIOUS Raw Bar
The Cheese Fondue.....WITH the extra Kirsch on the side please.
The Foie Gras Terrine....good lord. Don't be scared of Foie Gras!
The Beef Marrow & Oxtail Marmalade....off the charts savory, this can be your main dish. But why, when you can share more plates?


Their fried chicken is said to be one of the best in Manhattan, so if you have the room....why not.....go for it.

Do that......Just....just do that....Trust Rob....

Um I think they serve main entrees too....but did I mention the Beef Marrow????

Did you reserve yet?...go....now....do it.
I'll wait.... Until we do this again....

Enjoy....Have Fun...and Eat Well!

Blue Ribbon is also a delightful inclusion to the wonder that is Brooklyn Bowl. The fried chicken is life changing.
