What We’re Eating: Burgers at Primehouse

Joined the boys for burgers and beers at Primehouse last night — supposedly one of the best burgers in NYC. Needless to say, Primehouse did not disappoint.

Burgers at Primehouse

Now THAT'S a tasty burger!

I had to divide and conquer this beast as I couldn’t fit it into my mouth in a civilized manner otherwise. Likewise, I shelved the paleo / low-carb diet restrictions for the night and devoured the bun as well. Delicious. Sorry ’bout the blurry photo.

I’ve done Shake Shake, Royale, Back Forty and Les Halles. I’ve got my opinions, now what are your favorite NYC burger destinations?

Hat tip to Dwellstudio for the inspiration. Check out what they’re sticking their forks into here.

Well, I was thumbing through Harper’s Bazaar today and thought, now this woman is not one to just settle for a plain old zebra carpet. No sir, she needs the whole zebra:

It reminds me of Kelly Killoren Bensimon, who has this horse from the Met  in the middle of her Manhattan living room:

Some Blue Inspiration at The New York Times

For a bit of eye candy today, check out this slideshow of bright eye candy over at The New York Times. I’m loving this peacock blue and brick red combination in Enid Woodward’s Manhattan apartment. It’s a great example of how careful editing, curating and arranging can make a small apartment beautiful, bold colors and all.
