You may know her from her big win in 2007 on hit TV show American Idol. Recently, she’s been pursuing some different passions of hers involving food. She began her own sweet and savory baking show called Heart of the Batter. From classic recipes passed down from her grandma to trendy new creations, she’s perfected it all. In addition to making her own creations, she’s had the chance to try some amazing food all across the nation - and lucky us, she filled us in on her go-to eateries. We encourage you to try some of her favorite foodie spots all across the nation.

About the restaurant
Such a great spot next time you're in NYC for a Broadway show. I went there often while I was performing with In The Heights. It’s right in the heart of the theater district and is always so good for a quality Italian meal. The penne Bolognese is one of my favorite things on the menu.

What a wonderful experience! The food was exceptional, portions right in line with the price. The staff was truly one of the hardest working people I have ever seen. This will definitely be a regular stop every time I visit New York.

About the restaurant
The Mesquite Grilled Palacios Redfish is the best redfish I've ever tasted. On the way out they give you fresh pralines - yum! There is so much to love about this place. One cool dessert tip - if you order the banana foster they make it tableside for you and it's delicious.

About the restaurant
One word - meatballs! Also, six words – twenty-layer peanut butter chocolate cake! Lavo has such a great atmosphere and is the perfect spot to go when on vacation in Vegas. I crave both of these signature Lavo dishes and always get them whenever I have the opportunity to dine there.

About the restaurant
The sushi here is so fresh and the restaurant is just minutes from the water. I love just getting a bunch of different kinds of sashimi. If you can, try and sit at the sushi bar and watch them prepare all of the delicious rolls.

I can’t believe I have never been here before. The reviews said the sushi was some of the best or best and I completely agree. Everything we ordered gyoza, blue fin sashimi appetizer ( superb), the ebi tempura rolls, the omakase rolls, which they are known for everything was quality and delicious. Our server was terrific, she was so personable and accommodating. Will add this to my top favorites.

About the restaurant
There is nothing better than sitting on terrace of this restaurant and soaking up the view. My ideal night here is relaxing on the terrace with a crisp glass of Rose.

The presentation was lovely, the ambiance was wonderful, our server was stellar, but the flavor was underwhelming at best.
