( CNN ) -- To say that `` Real Housewives of New York City '' star Ramona Singer is busy would be an understatement . Between her different businesses -- wine , jewelry and skin-care products -- and the time she spends filming the Bravo reality show , Singer is hardly ever in the same location for very long . But Singer 's passion remains with New York City , where she still manages to spend most of her time . A busy lifestyle doing what she loves suits Singer just fine , and New York is the best place for her . The buzz of the city is what Singer loves most . `` You can be all by yourself and you walk out on the street and then you 're not alone , but surrounded by tons of people .

A swanky spot on the Upper East Side , T-Bar is known for its flair and of course , its steaks . Grabbing a cocktail here is an easy way for Singer to unwind . `` I love this restaurant and it 's in my neighborhood . It 's a place I can go by myself and get a bite to eat . I can go with girlfriends , I can go with my husband , they have a great area where you can just hang out and have drinks and appetizers or a whole meal . It just has a nice vibe , a nice local place . '' The Standard Grill 848 Washington Street . With a wide variety of menus from breakfast to `` late night , '' The Standard Grill offers items from a $ 1 `` good pickle '' to the $ 95 porterhouse steak for two . The restaurant is at the bottom of the trendy Standard Hotel , under the High Line Park .
