I rarely go uptown, but a birthday party on the Upper East Side at Aza Wine and Tapas led me to some tasty and flavorful bites.

Mini black Angus hamburgers got my juices flowing.

Some shrimp cocktail tapas was also a nice bite.

Paella Valencia, with fresh seafood, chicken, and Spanish sausage was really good. Great flavor throughout this dish, made the trip to the Upper East side worth it.

So don't be afraid to venture to places you're not used to going to; you never know what foodie treasures you'll find.
