Thanks for your guide, I had the chance to visit NYC over the weekend. Here’s some updates from my end:

Imperial No. 9 and Kyotofu has closed.

Dominique Ansel has another store called “Dominique Ansel Kitchen” (137 7th Ave S) which offers more pastries and staircase-like seating.

Yakitori Taisho has 2 restaurants on the same street. The original restaurant has Japanese cooks (more corwded) while the other is mostly Mexican. Kenka – also on the same street serves almost the same fare and is pretty crowded too. (I will try next time)

Shake Shack does have good burgers and fries but In-N-Out is still the best (their butter buns are so good).

Definitely agree, Georgetown cupcakes are amazing! you should try Lure fish bar at soho. They’re famous for their lobester rolls.

But IMO, shake shack has the best burgers.

@Jon Yeah I had several meals a day during the week when I was there. I wanted to go 11 Madison Park, but couldn’t get a table. Peter Luger is another place that I will definitely go during my next visit.

Did you try all these restaurants? Gorgeous photos btw.

You should also mention Lady M; great crepe cake.

Other notable restaurants: Cafe Boulud, Gotham Bar & Grill, Per Se, Jean Georges, 11 Madison Park…and Peter Luger (full of tourists but great steak) in either Long Island or Brooklyn

You should definitely hit up Gramercy Tavern the next time you’re there, great ambience, even better food!

Great post thanks! One of our faves when we were in NY May/June was Mercato in Hell’s Kitchen.
Planned spontaneity – we stumbled across it on the way to somewhere else for lunch – we stopped, we ate, drank, enjoyed the authentic surroundings and equally authentic staff, we were delighted!

All of those pictures make me hungry. Macaroons are quite a delicacy and Lauderee sure does deliver. S’mac’s mac and cheese looks great. I love gourmet mac and cheese, Kraft is good, but homemade is better. People should try Carnegie Deli, the sandwiches are humongous, but delicious. There is so many great places to eat in NY. Thanks for the tips for these great places.

Very timely! I have just 1 more week here, I’m going to try some of these

By the way, try Totto Ramen next time. They don’t take reservations so be prepared to queue over an hour. I was there on Saturday night and finally got a seat at 11pm.

Patsy’s Pizzeria’s coal-fired oven cooked pizza is delicious too!

By the way, how did you bring back Junior’s cheesecake? It is very troublesome? I’m thinking of bringing back cheesecake too
