Fall in Love With These NYC Pumpkin Eats
We tracked down the best pumpkin dishes across the five boroughs — read on for six unmissable autumn delights.
It’s that magical time of year when the leaves change colors, our wool sweaters come out of storage, and Starbucks starts offering its Pumpkin Spice Lattes yet again. Fall is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful seasons in the Big Apple — and after you check out this list, you’ll be convinced it’s also one of the tastiest!
Pumpkin Pancakes — Café Orlin
Start your day off right with these mouthwatering pumpkin pancakes topped with cinnamon yogurt from Café Orlin. In addition to offering delicious fall-inspired dishes, this cozy bar and restaurant located on St. Marks Place never fails to disappoint our tastebuds with its year-round options.
Pumpkin Pierogies — Veselka
Veselka is a famous staple in the East Village for Ukrainian food, and it’s high on our list of favorite restaurants. Their amazing pierogies have fulfilled many a late night craving, and Veselka’s seasonal options are no exception. We go gaga for their pumpkin pierogies every fall, and you can bet they’re at the top of our bucket list this season.
Pumpkin Pie Frozen Margarita — Blockheads
We didn’t think pumpkin pie could get any more delicious, but Blockheads’ margaritas have convinced us otherwise! These cocktails put an adult twist on one of fall’s most classic dishes, and we’re in love.
Pumpkin Nuage — Lady M
We love cheesecake, and we love pumpkin. This amazing combination of the two from Lady M has us swooning (and mouths watering). We’ll gladly eat anything that Lady M whips up, but this creamy, indulgent slice of heaven is our new favorite!
Pumpkin Ravioli — Obicà
You haven’t eaten ravioli until you’ve tried this pumpkin-infused dish from Obicà. The pumpkin is mixed into the pasta, which is then stuffed with the creamiest mustard and Castelmango cheese filling. Yum, yum, yum!
Pumpkin Doughnuts — Doughnut Plant
Of course, no must-eat list would be complete without one of our main food groups: doughnuts. And man, oh man, do these pumpkin doughnuts deliver! While Doughnut Plant offers a few varieties of pumpkin deliciousness, we opted for their traditional pumpkin yeast doughnut. It was, quite simply, pumpkin and spice and everything nice!
