As I was going through my hellish tax ordeal I came across a business card for a restaurant that Stacey and I went to in NYC while there on our 1 year anniversary. I thought about how much I loved this place and felt the need to spread the word. La Esquina, located right on the corner of Kenmare and Lafayette in the ever so cool SoHo. This place is sexy cool, meets luchadore underground. The best part is it is like being in Goodfellas, where you show up at the door of what looks like some taco stand ( don't let that deter you. the real goods are under the streets), are quickly and abruptly greeted by some dude with a clipboard. You tell him you have reservations ( you'll need em to get it) he then lets you in the door where you walk into some basement where upon you are greeted by yet another clipboard toting girl asking for your reservation. She then proceeds to walk you through the kitchen and into the low ceilinged restaurant. Now NYC is known for inflated prices. But this place was not that bad. The drinks are amazing , the food is incredible, and the music selection is a cool blend that runs the gambit.
I could go on and on about this place but I just recommend you go there and check it out for yourself.
