@i8NYC presents: EUPHORIA is our newest dining group where we meticulously curate harder to book reservations with no more than 8 members per dinner, plus Exclusive Perks and Discounts! Some places do not allow for larger groups so these dinners will be smaller in scale which means your attendance counts that much more! Warning: OUR DINNERS FILL UP FAST!!! If you like explore new cuisines together with like minded food enthusiasts in a smaller group, look no further! We also rebirthed @i8NYC presents: FOODGASM where we used to go out EVERY NIGHT. You will come to find out that we are the most active group with the BEST places. We also started a new chapter with @i8NYC presents: AGAPE where if you love to serve others, you're in the right place! Heck, join all 3!

Michelin Plate 🍽️ French Indonesian Night @ WAYAN 🇫🇷🇮🇩
Wayan, 20 Spring St, New York, NY, USOnly LIMITED seats! Please RSVP responsibly and take your attendance seriously!!! PLEASE BRING CASH ONLY!!!
We are heading to Nolita! Redux bc IYKYK! Ever have Escargot Rendang?Cédric Vongerichten (son of French-born global gastro-deity Jean-Georges) serves French-accented Indonesian fare in a sleek setting. Chef Cedric was awarded a Michelin ⭐️ for Perry Street. He is definitely overshadowed by his dad’s stardom/empire! DESSERT FANS REJOICE! Their dessert game is STRONG here. There’s an off the menu UBE PIE (that we will order if available). Because Wayan is the love story of Ochi and Cedric Vongerichten. Taking its name from the Balinese term for "first born,” think Indonesian flavors (from Ochi’s birthplace, Jakarta) paired with a bold French touch (the Vongerichten gene no doubt), for a truly delectable feast. PLEASE BE ON TIME!!! 😊

100 Layer Lasagna Night 🇮🇹 @ BABBO v2.0
Babbo Ristorante, 110 Waverly Place, New York, NY, USOnly LIMITED seats, NO CHANGING RSVPS ONCE YOU COMMIT! Please RSVP responsibly and take your attendance seriously!!! PLEASE BRING CASH ONLY!!!
We are heading to NYU! Opens second half of October! With Mark Ladner at the helm, he brought back the 100 Layer Lasagna from the dead! Del Posto Pastry Chef Brooks Headley has now moved on to helm Superiority Burger (all veg) (MICHELIN PLATE 🍽️)
One of New York’s most iconic Italian restaurants returns to its historic Greenwich Village carriage house with a renewed spirit. In 1998, Babbo pioneered a new style of fine dining by defying convention with bold interpretations of regional Italian dishes, embracing off-beat ingredients, and serving it all to a classic rock soundtrack. Under the guidance of Executive Chef Mark Ladner, this next chapter continues the celebration of old-world hospitality and New Yorkers’ zeal for dining out, defined by lively tableside presentations rooted in whimsy rather than formality, all within an intimate candlelit dining room. The menu balances beloved traditions like the Pasta Tasting with new signatures shaped by Ladner’s decades-long study of Italian cooking and New York’s global palates. Think chilled Venetian glass bowls of local fin fish crudo, a 49-day minestrone, and the revered 100-layer lasagna with a Detroit-style finish. A sweet finale comes by way of the transcendent saffron panna cotta and zabaglione spooned tableside from a copper tureen. Please be ON TIME!!! 😊

Menu: TBD
