What Is Your Favorite Restaurant In Midtown Manhattan?
Aug 15, 2009 by jbug111 | Posted in New York City
Hello!
I am bewitching a guest to NYC and was looking for good southeastern / Mexican or Italian or Indian restaurant which is not too expensive (entree less than $15)
If you trace out around the theater district and go to Restaurant Row (which I believe is W. 47th Street) you'll find a bunch of ethnic resturants which propose relatively inexpensive prix fixe meals.
I don't know if it's still there, but I always liked Rosa Mexicana on E. 59th Drive for Mexican. The Indian restaurants on E. 6th street are also delish -- and cheap.
What Are Some Good Ethnic Restaurants In Midtown Manhattan And Best Attractions?
Jun 23, 2008 by Shella | Posted in New York City
I will be visiting New York for a connect of days this coming weekend with a friend. It is my 1st time there, and we will be staying in middtown Manhattan. We were wondering about a fastidious restaurant (preferably something unique, difficult to find anywhere else) near midtown Manhattan. Also what do you think are the must see attractions?
NYC has an shocking array of ethnic cuisines - with its great Chinatown and Little Italy downtown.
If you go to Chinatown - plainly hit up Joe's Shanghai, they've won countless awards for their soup dumplings (FYI - they don't accept credit cards, so rush at prepared with cash!). They have a few locations around NYC, but their Chinatown location is the BEST (9 Pell St), but they do have a midtown situation. And if in Chinatown, hit up the Chinatown ice cream factory - they make all of their ice cream on site, and in crazy flavors like almond, taro, fresh tea, red bean, lychee, etc. My favorite is the lychee. Chinatown is also great for bargain shopping (umm... a crumb shady, but you can get knock off designer bags there!).
In the midtown area - there's an unofficial "Little Korea" (otherwise known as Koreantown) - in the vicinity 8th Avenue and 32nd Street - where several blocks are filled with great Korean restaurants. My favorite is Kun Jip (9 W. 32nd St), where you can BBQ your own pith right at the table - they're known for their thick cut pork belly, and it's AWESOME. There are also fun karaoke places around that you can hit up recently night.
For must see attractions - definitely have to go to Central Park (I love the Children's zoo, which is fun to go to in the summer - it's not the superlative zoo, but definitely the cutest, I love the Polar Bear exhibit!).
Take a walk down 5th avenue, and over by the pricey stores, and also the Apple store (767 Fifth Ave) - which is just fun to look at.
Gray's Papaya is also a must go (539 Eighth Avenue at 37th Street), they serve great hot dogs and juices on the frugal (and was also featured in You've Got Mail, and a ton of other movies - it has a cult following in NY!).
Have afternoon tea at the Plaza Hotel (although, that's a bit extortionate at $60/pp, but definitely something to write home about). Or just walk around the Plaza. Good times.
Go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art (although that's an in one piece day in doing just that), or MOMA (Museum of Modern Art). If given the choice, I'd go to MOMA to look at Van Gogh's "Starry Incessantly".
Hit up the TKTS booth in Times Square (right across from MTV studios), and score below cost same day Broadway tickets.
There are literally a million and a half things to do in NYC, the above mentioned are my favorites. I in reality hope you enjoy yourself! (And please don't go to the chain restaurants like the Cheesecake factory that you can go to anywhere else in this country)!

A Good Restaurant For Good Cheap Brunch-- Midtown Manhattan?

Thanks!
A few weeks ago, I had a elevated brunch at West Bank Cafe - 407 W 42nd St. - 212-695-6909. We were a group of eight. We had a nice jolly table and great service. I ordered the Lemon-Ricotta pancakes. They were outstanding - gaslight, tart and not too sweet - different from the standard brunch items. Everything is a la carte and they have nice mixture of omelets, salads, sandwiches, etc. Prices were quite inexpensive. I think our tab was $150. This is a superlative location if you are attending theater or sightseeing.

It won't be alone in Midtown Manhattan, and I don't think it is so brilliant that the original height was justified. I suspect that if the revised, shortened fleche had been submitted originally, its champions would have liked it just fine.
