Calling all Mozzarella lovers…come and enjoy a tasting of three handmade mozzarellas, grilled vegetables, olive oil and delicious wine.
Fresh 2 death. WAY fresher/better than the packaged version. If you're a fan of Greek yogurt, you must come here. Had the Fig & Walnut (so on point), but all the flavors look great. Friendliest staff!
The Morrell Wine Bar is one of the city's great spots for downing a glass or two-its extensive list boasts more than 2,000 different bottles and over 100 different wines by the glass. Read more.
The Number Seven at Imperial No. Nine downstairs is so good you could literally have seven of them. We highly recommend getting a drink at night sitting on the couch way in the back.
Omelette with the fillings - goat cheese, spinach & tomatoes was delicious - comes with toasted yummy muffin and mashed potatoes
Nicks pizza is truly an original. Great thin crust brick oven baked pizza. Try all the other fabulous salads, pasta dishes and desserts.
Soy based Japanese desserts here and deserving of all their praise. We recommend the black sesame tofu or the green tea crème brulee.
Ultimate old-fashioned romance and classic French cuisine. Settle into a plush red banquette amid riotous bouquets of fresh flowers and golden sconces. The food is pricey but guaranteed to impress.
The fragrant Peach Upside Down Cake, the moist Lemon Pound Cake, and the marvelous selection of house-made ice creams may tempt you to eat dessert first. (Give in to these temptations.)
Great iced coffee and plenty of space upstairs (the library) and downstairs (no computers or electronics on the weekend).
Mud is Cults' favorite place to eat breakfast quesadillas & huevos rancheros. But be careful: Their coffee is like jet fuel!
Hands down, the best chai latte ever. The fact that they serve Balthazar scones and show surf videos only makes it better. A great place to unwind.
Great quality beauty products with adorable packaging. Especially love the "sugar" line - we're all about being low glycemic but we'll take the sugar in our beauty products!
These guys know how to make a seriously good cup of coffee. Gotta love their latte, and in the summer, it's superb on ice.
The bakery that began the cupcake craze is still the best. We suspect it’s the lick-your-fingers-to-get-the-last-bit-of-butter-cream frostings and fillings. They do a mean banana pudding too.
I'm so glad I found Casey. His store is what makes NYC worth the high rent, and the bed bugs, and the shitty weather.

parked on 29th and park every tuesday afternoon. grab a sandwich and take it to madison square park on a sunny day.
Perfect place for breakfast meeting, girls lunch/brunch or anything involving parents. Exceptional French desserts and pastries, great steak tartare and excellent gazpacho.
Another hit for Chef Hooni Kim! Lovely atmosphere and everything is great! My favs were the Korean Ramyun (served after 10), fried chicken, fish cake soup, brisket fried rice!
This is a scene. Maybe the scene. An opulent Spanish-style space with a bohemian air. Schnabels on the walls, celebs around the fireplace, outrageous cocktails. Come before 9pm to secure a table.
An easy choice as our "Best Deviled Eggs." Using organic NY state brown chicken eggs, yolks are mixed with smoked paprika and lemon, then garnished with a curl of American grey bottarga and chives. Read more.
People who call this the best lobster roll in NYC haven't eaten at Luke's Lobster
