Get Cozy In This Alpine-Themed Restaurant On The Upper East Side

This is the kind of date that is going to put a smile on your face. Start with a delicious Filipino meal at Bilao on the Upper East Side. They have all the classic, comforting flavors, from crispy lechon to pansit, which is noodles sautéed with shrimp, chicken, sweet sausage, veggies, and a special sauce. Be sure to start your meal with either their pork or veggie lumpiang.

Then, go from the Philippines to Austria by heading over to Hutte, an Alpine-themed restaurant. The wooden interior will remind you of a chalet, with lights and kitschy items hanging from the ceiling and walls. Warm up with a glass of gluhwein and order the cheese fondue fondue to share that comes with St. Galler bratwurst, bauernwurst, cocktail wieners, veggies, toasted rye bread, and fruit for dipping.
