Thelewala is right across the street from Kati Roll, and proving to be stiff competition. But can they live up to the beloved original purveyor of this delectable Indian street food? You be the judge.

They call it matzoh, but it's more like a flatbread sprinkled with salt, pepper and some shaved cheese. A beautiful way to start the day, a lovely snack, or a great base for a spread. $2 per disc. Baked fresh every day.

We love the grilled fare at Barrio 47 in the West Village (especially the pizza-like pancetta cocas). You may see us there on Tuesdays this fall for Barrio 47's Farm to Fire menus. Each Tuesday, Barrio 47 cooks a different cut of meat in the restaurant's wood-fired brick oven ($25 per person). Here's what's ahead:

It's slightly off the beaten track, but Bakehouse in the far West Village, creates a pain au chocolat that existed, up until now, only in my dreams. Flaky outside, a beautiful bar of chocolate inside is surrounded by an almond cream that makes the whole thing heavenly. Check outside the 14th Street Apple Store on Fridays for their stand.

We live in a world where even if Cheetos aren’t a part of your daily diet, then diet soda or refined white flour are. It’s hard to escape processed foods, which is why Juice Press advocates a raw-food. To get you started on the right path, they offer a six-juices-a-day cleanse to refresh your system. If you’re not up for the commitment, try one of their 100% organic smoothies—a Pina Colada ($11.89) made with coconut water, pineapple, banana, coconut meat, lemon juice, and raw agave nectar is one of the tastiest ways to stay healthy.

I do not generally associate the wearing of jewelry with any particular emotion other than the occasional anxiety that occurs as I yank a necklace from the jewelry box while running out the door, late for work.
I make an exception, though, for Ten Thousand Things, purveyor of zen jewelry. Take, for example, these 18K gold Paisley Cluster and Stone Drop Earrings: don't they make you feel that you could sail into your company holiday party on a sea of calm?

Quaint restaurant in the West Village, Malatesta, is one of our all-time favorite Italian spots. The fare is reasonably priced and delicious. Be sure to try the Grilled Calamari atop arugula ($10) and the Cheese Ravioli smothered in creamy pink sauce ($13.50). Cash only. Bellissimo!
