(Please remember to do your exercises). Let me preface this with some background, so you understand the nature of my guide. Phifer; the original lifestyle architect and arbitrator for the Millennial Generation has been on a restaurant tour in your town, and he’s showing up snatched with a cause! Harlem might change your life. Note: change your life. I’ve been here for four weeks and some change and I have found you some of the best little gems in Harlem! Melba’s, Lido and Harlem Social will top off your life like it’s a religion (you’ve got yourself a deal with any of these options). The atmosphere of each restaurant is a bustling active crowd and the food and spirits are excellent. Not snooty or pretentious, but each dish pictured above is a must have. So have it! Gooood food is a must have for any neighborhood and I choose all three. Melba’s for brunch (I love a sangria and mango mimosa story). Lido when mio scento italiano! And Harlem Social to be social. Happy Holidays!
