Living walking distance to a restaurant you love. Maybe one that’s just ever so slightly overpriced, but not overpriced enough to stop you from going just a time or two more often than you should. I love having a go to spot for a special evening

There’s a restaurant/bar in Staten Island about 10 mins walking distance from me that’s basically become the spot where my dad and I take council and munch on appetizers. Always grateful for those local spots.

There are so many new restaurants, bars, places to hang, etc... that it can be overwhelming. Not only that, it's expensive to go out and rolling the dice on a shitty dinner just isn't worth it anymore. I have about 1/2 dozen spots I love and there more or less the only places I eat. Not only do I know I'll get a fantastic meal, but I know my money is going to buds & places that I want to stay open.

I love trying new places + have a list of places I’m slowly working through. But I’m realizing that tried & true places that have been around for +10 years are still standing for a reason. You’re usually paying a little more $, sure, but you’re getting consistency & quality & ambiance (Balthy at christmas time is heavenly). Minetta Tavern is a classic. The Odeon has its own cult following that’s well worth it. I’m sure places like Don Angie’s have the potential to be there in a decade, but until that happens I’ll be happy with my old fashioneds & nice napkins.

Don’t get me wrong I love trying a new place, but I’m not gonna be a sheep and just constantly exclaim “I love trying new places!!” Because I also love the places I’ve been to many times, and know the whole menu, and recognize the waiters etc. etc.

As photography became my job I find it easy to forget the love of the art that made me pursue it in the first place. Sometimes I take out the very first camera I got all those years ago and find that it reminds me of why I love it so much. Documenting my life for the fun of it. Back to the simplicity and naivety I had when I got that camera all those years ago. Remember why you love what you love
