❗️NYC’S BEST CHEESESTEAKS ARE AT OLDE CITY 😋 & hot damn is this place GOOD. ✔️ This Manhattan joint @loveoldecity is authentically Philly from the bread to the cheese to the technique and they are playing NO GAMES when it comes to cheesesteaks. Honestly, some of the best I’ve ever had… and cheesesteaks are my favorite sandwich. 👀 📌 Actually, the entire menu of food just smashes that grub spot. Don’t miss out on the Cooper Cheese fried squares which is this awesome Philly-made cheese that’s fried to a gooey perfection. And the fries, omg. Watch til the end to see what I’m talking about. 👉 Menu is full of awesome cheesesteak variations. I love the classic with a long hot and the Black Cherry was also incredible. 📍 Find them in NYC with locations in Chelsea, Hells Kitchen, Flatiron & UES. #TheGrubfather #NYC #Manhattan #Cheesesteak #NewYorkCity #Sandwich #NYCfoodie #NYCeats #NYCrestaurants #Cheese #Food

🐙 THE CHRISTMAS EVE OCTOPUS 🤌 The Feast of the Seven Fishes has begun and this is the crown jewel of it all for my family! Got all the details on how to make it below. ✔️ For us, the octopus is a symbol of our Sicilian heritage. It’s another Christmas Eve culinary traditional brought by my Grandma when she immigrated from Sicily in the 1940s. 📌 Our octopus salad is SO easy to make and insanely delicious if octopus is your thing. Here’s how it’s done… 1️⃣ Clean the octopus and remove the beak. 2️⃣ Boil water with squeezed lemon juice and whole lemons. Add in the octopus once boiling 3️⃣ Check the octopus as it boils. It should be super tender - the more tender, the better! We cut off little pieces and taste to see when it’s done. 4️⃣ Remove octopus from water and cut the tentacles into small chunks. 5️⃣ Mix in a bowl with a generous amount of extra virgin olive oil, finely chopped raw garlic, chopped parsley, salt to taste and freshly squeezed lemon juice. 6️⃣ Refrigerate until chilled. 7️⃣ MANGIA 😋 🎄 MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE, GRUBFAM! 🐟 Hope you’re enjoying your feast & family. #TheGrubfather #ChristmasEve #Octopus #FeastOfTheSevenFishes #Recipes #ItalianAmerican #Foodie #Seafood #Food #LongIsland #ItalianFood
