Strip House Midtown Restaurant Review

This is the last Christmas post in June, I promise! I just cannot not share with you the great places I visited during last year's holiday. The Strip House is a restaurant right next to the Sofitel New York, where I was staying. For some reason Christmas Day is always not something planned but I pick a place that day. I felt like just doing something close to the hotel and have never eaten here before.

I was totally blown away by this place. The food was so amazing, and if you are a steak lover, it is a must. It is on the pricey side, so be warned, but very much worth it. What caught me on the menu was baked Alaska, something I've always wanted to try. It was a happy day indeed! 

Lobster Bisque soup was totally creamy and delish  

The bread basket was totally over the top, warm fresh made rolls, some with garlic flavor, I could have dined on this alone. I could have ate the whole basket but I restrained myself.  

I ordered diver scallops, one of my favorites and they were so yummy  

Baked Alaska! Have you ever enjoyed ? Oh I was just over-the-moon as it was just unreal. So so good and I felt bad being able to eat about half of it. The waiter asked if I wanted to take it with me and I said "No freezer in my hotel" which was so sad! You must try this dessert if you have never enjoyed it - It is worth every darn calorie!  

I didn't even mind the strawberry sorbet or ice cream inside - I am usually not a fan of strawberry anything but it didn't matter. Pure heaven.

Dining at Eataly

I figured this wonderful photo of chocolates would get your attention! We are dining at Eataly, and if you have never visited, you must! The food here is amazing, and they have quite a few restaurants to dine which are all fantastic. This time I picked Il Pesce which mainly serves seafood, which I just adore. I am so not a steak person, I love so many different kinds of seafood. I can't even say which is my favorite!  

I just LOVE Smeg appliances, don't you? They are the coolest in the world.  

My dinner choice was scallops and they were so yummy. Cooked a very simple way, but when you use a few good flavors like garlic and olive oil, you are one happy person.  

I didn't photograph but I also ordered green beans to go with my seafood and they were pretty wonderful as well. This restaurant is a first come first serve as far as seating but if you are a seafood lover like myself, you won't mind a little wait. It is well worth it!  

Such great selection of homemade pasta to take home!  

I love these Italian candies containers, so adorable!  

A cookie with a pool of Nutella inside makes for a great dessert at the end of the day!
