Extra Virgin, the name alone was enough to pique my interest. So when L suggested we do lunch there I was immediately down. Not just the name, but I’m always up for trying a new restaurant. Bonus, it’s in one of my favorite New York neighborhoods – the West Village (I’m a bit basic, I know).
We were on strict orders from friends to order the fries with gorgonzola fondue and the Bloody Marys. And I’m here to tell you that if you do find yourself at Extra Virgin, do yourself a favor and get the fries. We also got a round of Bellinis. I ended up with the Basque scramble, whilst L got the Monte Cristo.
If you’re a Sex and the City fan, the restaurant is up the street from Carrie Bradshaw’s famous stoop. As we sipped on Bellinis, we couldn’t help but wonder if we had time for a quick photo. In the end though, we had to skip it and rush downtown.
