By Aimee Rizzo Verified| The Infatuation Verified "I’m from LA, and anytime I’m sick, I get chicken and rice soup or matzoh ball soup. And they don’t really have delis in Seattle [like LA’s.] Piroshky is a Russian place that has the best matzoh ball soup, the best borscht, and the best meatball and rice soup. It feels a little bit like home."“I’m gluten-free, so it limits certain things, but they have such good gluten-free options there. The kimchi pancake is a must. Obviously their cocktails are delicious. Short rib rice plate? Amazing.
By Aimee Rizzo Verified| The Infatuation Verified Hidden below an apartment building in Pinehurst, there’s a coffee shop roasting Costa Rican beans in a miniscule space, and the result just works. Giddy Sloth is worth a visit if only for their tapa dulce latte, loaded with enough panela-infused syrup to sweeten stiff espresso without making it taste like a sack of sugar cubes to the face. Plus, you can pair it all with excellent chocolate chip cookies somehow prepared effortlessly in a countertop oven.

The Infatuation
The Infatuation is a prominent online restaurant discovery platform founded in 2009 by Andrew Steinthal and Chris Stang. Originally a blog, it has grown into a comprehensive guide for dining recommendations in over 35 cities worldwide. Headquartered in New York, with additional offices in Los Angeles and London, The Infatuation focuses on providing personalized dining experiences through its website and mobile platforms. The platform features detailed restaurant guides and curated lists, emphasizing authentic recommendations from real staff members rather than automated suggestions. Users can receive tailored dining options based on their preferences or occasions. The Infatuation also engages the community through events like the NYC EEEEEATSCON, a food festival that blends culinary experiences with music. In 2018, the company expanded its influence by acquiring the Zagat brand from Google, reviving it in print. With a strong social media presence, The Infatuation serves over three million monthly users seeking dining recommendations.
