Little Giant is a cozy (i.e. no elbow room) little spot that is reliable for brunch and tasty treat for dinner if you stay away from the main dishes that are quite overpriced for what they are. Although the $25 plate of pasta with a poached egg on top is delicious, it's hardly worth that kind of investment.

On the other hand, the side dishes are reasonably priced and very enjoyable. Think of creamy mac and cheese with crispy bacon, the best chicken liver mousse you've ever had, cockles with butter, beet salad with a wedge of amazing cheese, and their famous chive biscuit with honey butter.

Make a meal of these fabulous little treats and Little Giant will win you over with their pillowed, softly lit interior that feels intimate and special (but not too fancy) in the evening. Perfect for a date or dinner with a friend.

Try to sit at the corner table to the right of the bar near the window. It's the best seat in the house.

A wonderfully cozy space, a former brick firing kiln (or so I've heard). Seats no more than 20. Wonderful wine selection and the sides are a must!

Forget public opinion

And get your New York restaurant/nightlife suggestions from The Confoodant: reviews from the taste-buds you trust. The only way to become a confoodant is to be invited by one. Real reviews. Really reliable.

About me:

When it comes to choosing a restaurant, I always want a second opinion, so Yelp used to be a perfect solution (even though I never thought I would post my own reviews). Although their ranking system seemed overly manipulated, Yelp was a convenient source for restaurant info, so I constantly referenced it. But when highly rated restaurants on the site began to fall flat, I was inclined to set the record straight. Over 50 yelp reviews later, I had had enough and decided to create The Confoodant, a place where a network of trusted food enthusiasts could grow and post their opinions.

Is it just a blog?

Confoodant.com is still in development, but the network of confoodants has already begun to grow and are invited to post their reviews on The Confoodant blog until the real website is up and running. The blog doesn't provide the features that the full site will, but just think of it as a temporary home to start sharing restaurant tips with people you trust (and who trust you).
