New York Habitat: Good for special occasions and dates, this vegan restaurant is good enough to make even the grizzliest of carnivores rethink their eating habits. Definitely try the Seitan Piccata.
Hotel Bar · Upper East Side · 130 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: Enter Bemelmans in the Carlyle Hotel through an unassuming door off the lobby. Expensive drinks but one of the finest atmospheres in the city, complete with dim lighting and a piano player.

New York Habitat: We're big fans of Turkish food and Beyoglu really hits the spot. Get the Doner kebab or the Iskender Kebab but save room for the bread!

Bakery · Yorkville · 362 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: Good spot on the UES when your sweet tooth is craving some red velvet. Can't go wrong with any dessert here but you should definitely try the pumpkin cupcake.
New York Habitat: A cozy little café that feels like something out of a small village in Europe. Good prices, great coffee, and even better sandwiches. Try one of the paninis if you don't believe us.
Italian Restaurant · Upper East Side · 238 tips and reviews
New York Habitat: We're obsessed with their sheep's ricotta cheese and black truffle honey bruchetta. Don't think, just get it. Pair it with the gnocchi di ricotta and a wine by the glass for a perfect experience.
New York Habitat: Get the pad kee mao. It's cheap, flavorful, and will satisfy your grumbling stomach. There's a wine store a block away if you'd like to BYOB as well.
