NYC Restaurant Review

August Book Club – The Vegetarian and Blossom Restaurant

August 29, 2017 by Ann Marie Leave a Comment

For our August book club, the NYC Ladies of Fine Dining and Fiction read The Vegetarian by Han Kang. We held our discussion at Blossom on Columbus, a popular vegan destination on the Upper West Side.
