I use the Yelp application on my iPhone A LOT. It's such a helpful tool when you are in a neighborhood and you have no idea where to eat. I found Ruby's Cafe in Soho through this app. after much argument with a friend over what type of food we should eat. She wanted something hearty, and I wanted a salad. I picked this place partially because of the reviews and partially because my dog's name is Ruby. I ordered a spinach salad with goats cheese, pine nuts, roasted pumpkin and caramelized balsamic dressing. I didn't know you could caramelize balsamic. It tastes a lot richer and has more depth of flavor. I'm definitely going to figure out how to make that correctly. The salad was delightful and hit the spot, although I could have eaten some more of it. Perhaps, a crusty piece of fresh bread would have complimented it nicely. The pumpkin was nice. I'm really getting into dishes with pumpkin...must be the changing of the seasons affecting my taste buds.
