So much food, so little time… NYC Restaurants

There were only so many meals we could fit into a day. I think I managed 5 meal stops on one of the days. Here are a few highlights.

Grimaldi’s Pizza in Brooklyn

Key Lime Pie and Peach Lemonade at Bubby’s in TriBeCa

Dinner at Bar Americain with Fried Chicken ala Bobby Flay

Devil’s Food Cupcake from Amy’s Bread in Hell’s Kitchen

Big fat pastrami sandwich from Carnegie Deli

A Fresh Fruit Tart from The City Bakery

I created a map with all the restaurants we visited during our trip. I’m sure everyone knows that I only had a taste of what the city has to offer. I guess I’ll just have to go back sometime soon.

I had gathered recommendations from friends, and found lists/reviews various places online. New York Magazine had the most helpful restaurant section for pre-planning. During our trip, I found that the Yelp app on my iphone was the easiest to use when we were out and about. What made Yelp so convenient was the feature that sorts bookmarked places by proximity to you at the time. So while we were walking around and wanted to stop to eat I could easily see which places were nearby and click on the link that would give me directions and a map.
