Foodie: 5 Reasons why I keep going back to Pravda

1. From 5 to 7, the bartender buys your friend a drink:
Thought you wouldn't ever again see a +buy one, get one free+ offer on fabulous $15 martinis in Soho? Well friend, I beg you to try once more.

2. No Bullshit:
Tonight, a stunning Polish model waitress walked up to us with a complimentary dish of deviled eggs to kickoff our meal. Pravda's definitely not trendy anymore - and that's exactly how we like it.

3. The Gogol:
3 oz of house-infused horseradish vodka, a hint of dill and... a pickled quail egg. You'll either love it or hate it, but you MUST step out of your comfort zone and try it.

4. The Steak Sandwich in Medium-Rare:
No good if you're on a model diet - but an exquisite anti-PMS recipe. The biggest steak sandwich in the city, served bloody to your liking, with a generous serving of French Fries, one pickle, ketchum and mayonnaise. You just can't beat that.

5. Salmon Roe for two:

More often than average, I find myself craving caviar. Obviously, since I spend most of my days in front of a computer, I rarely find enough time in my schedule to hit Brighton Beach to stock up on the cheap stuff. No problem :) For less than $20 in this joint, I eat like a princess.

Smell Your Fortune

I'm excited about D&G's Fragrance Anthology, a five-scent collection of unisex fragrances inspired by tarot cards.

My pick? La Roue de la Fortune, embodied in Mario Testino's fabulous ad campaign by supermodels Eva Herzigova and Fernando Fernandes.


In Tarot, the Wheel of Fortune (Arcana Major X) symbolizes our destiny.
..

In perfume, it
features a feminine tuberose, gardenia and jasmine heart and a masculine benzoin and patchouli base.

I foresee a very sexy scent!
