Speaker 2 (01:55):
Uh, that's what did I love? Where did I just go? Uh? Oh?
Can I tell you? Cot to Letto was delicious and
it was easy because I could never decide what to
eat because I want everything they have one choice. They
have one entree. It's like a big veal. It's like
a veal millionnaise. So for two people, you get like
(02:17):
Aaron Cheney to begin with, You get the cot letta.
You get a salad and two side dishes, which could
be French fries, fried zucchini pasta. For eighty dollars for
two people, you could be in and out on the
boat it is. We took half of it home or
card and I took half of it home. It was
so delicious. I mean, there are a million great restaurants
in Miami. It used to be you couldn't decide where
(02:40):
to eat because it was nothing. Now you can't decide
where to eat because there are so many and so
many new things opening. I mean, wow, we have Thomas Keller,
we have Jean George, we have Daniel Blou, we have
just amazing talent. You're the Carbone people. You're stealing our
people now, your people. That's right, they're all heading well,
they're all running away from you, no doubt. Here we goes.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Every time we read stories about, you know, foody capitals
and lists, Miami and South Florida, they're always on the list.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Now without a doubt it's a great you because it's
all New york Ers, all you people came down there
at the covid PO. Yeah, people to a nice red state.
Hello listeners, here we go. So I have a question. Yes,
what is your question? So every morning I listened to
you talk about Wendy's and the way to work. Yes,
(03:32):
a great advertiser. I love Wendy's. Do not worry. I'm
not talking. Okay. If I was Wendy's when you had
VIP guests like myself, I would have Wendy's. Why don't
they care to breakfast? And I'll tell you why you're
saying that he loves that breakfast burrito. I do it
because of you. I was driving by a Wendy's one morning,
just a few weeks ago. I texted you and you
were talking about it, and I was at a red
(03:52):
light and there's like a Wendy's on the other side.
I parked my car, walked across the highway and went
and had a breakfast burrito. And what did you think?
It was surprisingly good? So do you want to come back?
I know I know you loved it, though, right, I
did love it. I really I love Wendy's. I think
they're the best burgers.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Should have them at the Wine and Food Festival. Wendy's Burrito,
I would.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I think I am going to do that. I think
we they should be at our taco event. Yes, I
think that's a great idea. I love Wendy's. I have
the best. If you could take Wendy's burger and five
guys French fries, oh my gosh, there's nothing like that,
and then and a shake from a shake shack, I
mean really, that is my ideal meal. And in Miami,
they're all on one road, so you could do that.
(04:33):
You could do like a roving dinner par It's like
a buffet house.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
We like shake shacks, not shakeshacks. Five guys fries so
much because they're so generous and they just keep pouring
them in the back.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
No, they're fresh. They cut their French fries right there,
right in front of him. Yeah. I mean it's like,
what's the place in California we all love in and
out where they cut their French fries. I mean Wendy,
Wendy's great burger, five guys fries, and a shake shack shake.
I mean, that's my ideal meal. Lee.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Do you like hot sauce? Are you a fam Okay,
Wendy's has the best chili sauce ever. People don't know
about it. Go ask them for their chili sauce. Put
it on your fries and your burder.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
We sell it on eBay. It's hard to get. So
last night we went to raising canes. Believe it or not.
I mean we've been eating at like the corner store,
we bidding at Lavaux door and last night, I mean
last night, I had these free gift cards that were
given to me, and you know me, I can't get
rid of anything. So I'm running around the apartment looking
for my free gift cards and Marcrlos says, what are
(05:30):
you looking for? I said, my gift cards. He said, well,
how much are they? I said they'd ten dollars. He said, well,
just we're buy it. I said, they're here in the house.
And we looked for like a half hour few find them.
We did. We did. I was so happy. So we
went to like four hundred dollars theater seats and had
a ten dollars raising cane dinner. There you go, it's
so good. That's the beauty of all right, So here

We have New York in Madison Square Garden. We have
Philly that's sold out jingle Ble, and we have we
end the entire year with Miami Jinglele.
Speaker 2 (08:33):

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Yes, Saturday night, Saturday night. I'm going to think of
something very very special. Yes, I think I'm going to
make like a chicken salad and give it to everybody
in that audience, lots of homemade fresh Man. I don't
want you, love you. But speaking of.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
South Florida, Uh, there's a new place here in town
called Krema here in New York. They have been in
South Florida and Miami for a long time, and we
now get to taste. Usually it's the New York restaurants
that roll down to Miami. Now Crema is moving up
to New York.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
When I'm not stopping by Wendy's for a breakfast burrito,
I go to Crema and they just opened up in
this city, I think on East fortieth and they're great
friends of mine. And they have delicious food and breakfast
sandwiches and great croissants and delicious orange juice. And they
catered our breakfast this morning. It's beautiful. Gandhi, I want
to thank you. She texted me early and said, what
should I save you? She was very sweet because the
(09:32):
last times I've been here, no one saved me any
food that I said.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
That's why you were grownedy last night.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Well, I think it was why I was grouchy. But
you know, I said, the heat had made me cruel
last time. This time you're doing okay. Yeah, we're doing okay.
But I don't want to follow Christina TOSSI like the
best baker in the world. You know, have me on,
I said, Nate, you know she's going to bring food.
What am I going to bring? She goes, well, don't
count on her bringing food. Not everyone brings food, And
(09:58):
she did. She brought all this great food, great food.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Mine was first, right, Yes, actually I brought in apple
pies from a farm standard.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I saw that out there. They're really good. Really, I
love apple pie. And did you see, for those who
followed me on Instagram, that we just planted an apple orchard.
Were out in the Hampton's at our house in Long Island.
We just went out last week and we saw the
apple trees for the first time. I introduced myself and
we named every one of the trees. And so next
(10:28):
fall we'll have dunking parties and we'll have apple pie
and apple strudle and apple I can't apple pancakes. I
can't wait.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
I can't wait to have a big barrel of Granny
Leave apples. Yes, that's your name, gran Lee Apples. Is
your dragon dragon?
Speaker 2 (10:45):
If I knew that was coming? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:47):
Yeah, yeah?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Have you taken him to yet?
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Oh it's the best Italian You got to go. It's
out about by the farm. You gotta come out to Alma.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
How about like, I've never been invited to the bar
and your grandmother's rest kitchen in Naples.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yeah, my grandmother wasn't quite from Naples, more like Russia,
but I'm sure it's the same thing.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah, that'll have blocks, but no, no, Ak who owns Ama,
he's from Naples. He came here when he was a teenager.
And this food is it's the food his mother made.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Him when he was how far from here? About an
hour we're going, We're going. I look forward to it.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Look, you know we've been talking on and on and on.
Let's let's give our listeners something a gift. What gift
can you What advice do you have for a listeners
as far as restaurants or looking for something new and
interesting as far as food in the food world, or
any upcoming gigs you got going on?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Well, I guess the best. I I never follow a review.
A review would not make me go to a restaurant
as in a restaurant review. Yeah, in the restaurant review,
I would. A good review would never make me want
to go there, and a bad review would not stop
me from going there. I think that you're entitled to
your own opinion. A good review may get me there quicker,
I must say. But a bad review, you know, I
(12:05):
want to see if it's as bad as they say,
or why it was or was it an off night?
And everyone has an off night, Which is why I
hate social media in the sense of people's reviews. Because
they don't know what happened. I mean, maybe maybe the
product didn't show up, maybe it wasn't delivered correctly. I
don't know. I just don't love. You know, social media
has made everybody a critic and it's listen, it's great
(12:27):
social media. I love social media and I love when
I need it and it helps me promote whatever I'm promoting.
But I don't like when it's used to hurt people
in the sense of a bad review for a restaurant
whea the hardest business in the world, as we can't
go there. It's a three point eight. No, it doesn't
stop me like a Google rating of a three point
seven will turn your away. No, I don't look.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
Really, does a ghost kitchen freak you out? Which one
a ghost kitchen?
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yeah, you know, freak me out. I wouldn't rush to it, Okay, yeah,
I wouldn't rush to what was it? Was it called
maven Uh? It was a company in ghost kitchens? Yeah? Yeah,
you know, like I'm at home, I'm not going to
order Bobby Flaze food from a ghost kitchen when you
know that they're not making his you know whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Chicken, No ghost kitchen. But we gotta go, but I
gotta say you've been very nice to us. And it's yeah,
it actually very it's very unsettling.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
It's a sugar. It's a sugar from Christine. Yes it is.
I mean sugar. Made you nice about that jacket and
your shirt. I love my my shirt. You know what's
your fat jacket? While cat there, you little bit? All right,

Speaker 1 (08:55):
South Florida, Uh, there's a new place here in town
called Krema here in New York. They have been in
South Florida and Miami for a long time, and we
now get to taste. Usually it's the New York restaurants
that roll down to Miami. Now Crema is moving up
to New York.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
When I'm not stopping by Wendy's for a breakfast burrito,
I go to Crema and they just opened up in
this city, I think on East fortieth and they're great
friends of mine. And they have delicious food and breakfast
sandwiches and great croissants and delicious orange juice. And they
catered our breakfast this morning. It's beautiful. Gandhi, I want
to thank you. She texted me early and said, what
should I save you? She was very sweet because the
(09:32):
last times I've been here, no one saved me any
food that I said.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
That's why you were grownedy last night.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
Well, I think it was why I was grouchy. But
you know, I said, the heat had made me cruel
last time. This time you're doing okay. Yeah, we're doing okay.
But I don't want to follow Christina TOSSI like the
best baker in the world. You know, have me on,
I said, Nate, you know she's going to bring food.
What am I going to bring? She goes, well, don't
count on her bringing food. Not everyone brings food, And
(09:58):
she did. She brought all this great food, great food.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Mine was first, right, Yes, actually I brought in apple
pies from a farm standard.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I saw that out there. They're really good. Really, I
love apple pie. And did you see, for those who
followed me on Instagram, that we just planted an apple orchard.
Were out in the Hampton's at our house in Long Island.
We just went out last week and we saw the
apple trees for the first time. I introduced myself and
we named every one of the trees. And so next
(10:28):
fall we'll have dunking parties and we'll have apple pie
and apple strudle and apple I can't apple pancakes. I
can't wait.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
How about like, I've never been invited to the bar
and your grandmother's rest kitchen in Naples.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Yeah, my grandmother wasn't quite from Naples, more like Russia,
but I'm sure it's the same thing.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yeah, that'll have blocks, but no, no, Ak who owns Ama,
he's from Naples. He came here when he was a teenager.
And this food is it's the food his mother made.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Him when he was how far from here? About an
hour we're going, We're going. I look forward to it.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Look, you know we've been talking on and on and on.
Let's let's give our listeners something a gift. What gift
can you What advice do you have for a listeners
as far as restaurants or looking for something new and
interesting as far as food in the food world, or
any upcoming gigs you got going on?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Well, I guess the best. I I never follow a review.
A review would not make me go to a restaurant
as in a restaurant review. Yeah, in the restaurant review,
I would. A good review would never make me want
to go there, and a bad review would not stop
me from going there. I think that you're entitled to
your own opinion. A good review may get me there quicker,
I must say. But a bad review, you know, I
(12:05):
want to see if it's as bad as they say,
or why it was or was it an off night?
And everyone has an off night, Which is why I
hate social media in the sense of people's reviews. Because
they don't know what happened. I mean, maybe maybe the
product didn't show up, maybe it wasn't delivered correctly. I
don't know. I just don't love. You know, social media
has made everybody a critic and it's listen, it's great
(12:27):
social media. I love social media and I love when
I need it and it helps me promote whatever I'm promoting.
But I don't like when it's used to hurt people
in the sense of a bad review for a restaurant
whea the hardest business in the world, as we can't
go there. It's a three point eight. No, it doesn't
stop me like a Google rating of a three point
seven will turn your away. No, I don't look.
Speaker 4 (12:47):
Really, does a ghost kitchen freak you out? Which one
a ghost kitchen?
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yeah, you know, freak me out. I wouldn't rush to it, Okay, yeah,
I wouldn't rush to what was it? Was it called
maven Uh? It was a company in ghost kitchens? Yeah? Yeah,
you know, like I'm at home, I'm not going to
order Bobby Flaze food from a ghost kitchen when you
know that they're not making his you know whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Chicken, No ghost kitchen. But we gotta go, but I
gotta say you've been very nice to us. And it's yeah,
it actually very it's very unsettling.
Speaker 2 (13:19):

your shirt. I love my my shirt. You know what's
your fat jacket? While cat there, you little bit? All right,

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
