Oh the Places You'll Eat...at in New York

Here is a quick list of some of our favorite places to eat (I'll attach links later):

1. Difiore Marquet - My absolute favorite brunch spot in the Union Square area. I almost always get their eggs benedict and a warm vanilla bread pudding for afterward. The french toast is great, as well as their salads and sandwiches.

2. Sarabeth's - Adam's favorite brunch spot (they have a few locations, but I like the Upper East Side one best). He loves the eggs with sour cream or cream cheese and chives. Their jams and jellies are well known as some of the tastiest around. Try the Strawberry Rhubarb.

3. Bistro Cassis - Adam loves the steak from this place on the Upper West Side. The sole fish is nice as well as the filet Mignon.

4. Lure - this is a hip and cool SoHo spot. The inside has the feel of being on a yacht. It can get pricey but they have a great burger for $16.

5. Nobu (in Tribeca) - another pricey place, but well worth the money! If I were to ever have a love affair, it would be with the Lobster tempura from this place. I can't even describe how delicious it is. I've eaten almost everything on the menu, but can't wait to try the Beef Tobin Yaki. They're famous for their Miso Black Cod, Rock Shrimp Tempura with creamy spicy sauce (I prefer the ponzu sauce), and yellowtail sashimi with jalepeno (although I think the New Style sashimi kills the yellowtail). I surprisingly liked the Squid "Pasta" as well.

6. Grey Dog - great sandwiches in the Union Square area.


7. Peep - A Thai restaurant so named for it's see-through mirrored bathroom wall (you can't see in, but you can see out). It's located in SoHo and used to have an amazing duck appetizer. I almost always get the ginger chicken dish.

8. Crif Dogs - $4.50 per hot dog, but these are special little dogs. I like the Chihuaua Dog wrapped in bacon which has avocado and sour cream on top. The Teriyaki Dog is great as well and is also wrapped in bacon, and has pineapple teriyaki sauce and sprinkled with chives. If you happen to be in the East Village and are hungry, it's an interesting spot.

9. Shake Shack - classic New York burger. They have one location near mid town, but it's outside seating and another on the Upper West Side.

10. Burger Joint - a better burger and located inside the Le Parker Meridian Hotel in Midtown. There's a secret entrance to the restaurant behind a velvet curtain, but look for a neon burger sign above the doorway.

11. McDonald's - Adam's favorite. Lucky for you it's everywhere!

There are so many other places I can think of so maybe I'll add more later.

We've also been wanting to try out a few nice places such as Del Monico's located in the Financial District, Peter Luger's Steakhouse in Brooklyn, and Le Grenuille in the Midtown area.

Happy Eating and if anyone has any other suggestions, feel free to post them in the comment section!
