With Winter Restaurant Week in full swing, there’s no better time to explore the city’s diverse food options, according to Kaitlyn Rosati, who writes the “NYC hidden dining gems” column for the Daily News.
Rosati scours the five boroughs to find culinary treasures, from South African elk carpaccio to Filipino halo-halo. This year, she joined “Mornings On 1” to dish on which spots she thinks foodies should put on their lists.
Right at the top of her list is Brigadeiro Bakery.
“It's a fabulous bakery in SoHo, run by a woman from Brazil, her name is Mari,” Rosati explained, before recalling a visit to Brazil, where she first tried the treats offered at the local bakery.
Restaurant Week runs through Feb. 9 this year. Participating restaurants are offering prix-fixe menus, like two- and three-course meals for either $30, $45 or $60.
