NOZ
118 St. Marks Place

Founded and operated by two New York based Portugiesse sisters, NOZ is always a safe bet. Generous portions that are always laid out meticulously on banana leave lined dishes, addictive breakfast peanut butter covered apples, and thumb sized personal tobasco bottles are just some of the perfectly executed details performed by one of New York's best onset caters.
Today's lunch is a Fresh Buffalo Mozzarella with Cherry Tomatoes, Basil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Cracked Pepper, and Sea Salt. Classic Cobb Salad with Grilled Chicken Breast, Avocado, Bacon, Blue Cheese, Tomatoes, and Hardboiled Egg . Seared Tuna Loin with Eggplant Caponata. Two Roasted Garden Vegetable plates. Tender Braised Beef Short Ribs with yellow rice and a vegetable lasagna. Desert is a chocolate cake, modest in garnishing, yet still aesthetically pleasing.
The only cause for complaint in NOS's epic delivery of today's lunch is that there appears to be no menu with the meal outlining contents of each dish, a possible concern for anyone with allergies, and there's no salad dressing. The wax lined to go boxes are subtle, perfectly sized, and will most certainly be carrying the contents of leftovers in my bag once we wrap today.
