Food Scene
One of the best Italian restaurants in the city. Suggest ordering family /tapas style as most plates are small. Reservation is hard to come by, so suggest going early evening when they first open to either eat at the bar or put your name down on the wait list.

I am Thai, and I can say that this is the best Thai restaurant in the city. On an average night you will see a couple of Thai patrons enjoying their yummy varieties of Som Tum dishes and other northern Thai dishes.

Any Shake Shack location will suffice if you are looking for a simple, no frills, damn good burger. The location in Madison Sq. Park is a bit more iconic and offers the outdoor seating, which is good for people watching on a nice day.
