A two to three hour meal (why men are never invited to girlfriend food dates),
A talk of all talks including men/women love status, fashion purchases and non-purchases, the latest skinny on Lindsay Lohan (literally, do you see how rail thin she is these days?),
A few alcoholic drinks here and there
And solid all-star food.

Northeast Kingdom, Bushwick, NY
Two best friends, one intimate dinner and a clean, bare-bones, licked dry plate in the end.
Venison Sausage, Grilled Asparagus & Butternut Squash Puree with a side of Mojito
Chocolate Tort (not pictured)
Contestant number 2:
Macondo, LES, NY
Reunited! The elementary school best friends!
LES ORIGINALS. That's right. We have neighborhood cred.
The setting was definitely a nice escape. The ground could have used the sand and I would be a woman back at the Bahamas again. Porron, pictured above, in the test tube-like pitcher, which pours out wine straight into your mouth in a slow stream-like motion. Shot gunners, this is not your drink. You'll have no patience for this.
Can we get this Porron thing all over town? Drinking wine should always be a spectacle. We were very into it. Porron here. Porron there. Let's Porron it.
I went ahead and got their famous Avocado and tequilla drink.
BIG WINNER! Leave it to the professionals. You can't make this at home without the end result being green gloop. I'll take another, please.
The food wasn't much to talk about. It was along the lines of being "I can't remember what I ate" status. But if you were to pick anywhere to grab drinks, this is your place. All the Latin favorites made to perfection.
I love female dates.
Males. Pick up your A-game.
