Corner of Wooster and Prince no phone number about $12 for two, without drinks, without tip ♥ Updated, 2006: They do have a phone number! 917/674.1869 and of course, “Cal” is from California I assume Calexico is currently enjoying their Vendy Award status as a finalist because I had to try twice before I finally…

106 Kenmare Street between Lafayette and Cleveland Place 646/613.7100 about $18 for one, with one drink, without tip ♥ I celebrated my 2005 birthday in the basement of La Esquina. My guests and I had to walk through the door marked with an Employees Only sticker, down the stairs and past the kitchen to get…

232 Elizabeth Street between Houston and Prince 212/625.2345 $57 for one, with four drinks, with tip ♥ ♥ Both times I’ve eaten at Bar Bossa, I sat in the back room with a group of friends where bathroom visitors always say, Oh, I didn’t know there was a table back here. Sitting in the back…

62 Prince Street corner of Lafayette 212/219.2129 about $15 for one, with a drink, without tip ♥ A really uncool name for such a great space and location, SoHo Park opened this week to all kinds of hungry and curious visitors. There were fashionable girls in line while the Brooks Brothers-wearing boys sat at the…

70 Prince Street corner of Crosby 212/219.8570 about $125 for two, with two drinks, without tip ♥ ♥ ♥ Three people splitting nine small plates and three Indian pale ales for $25 each isn’t such a bad deal for a New York City lunch. Our afternoon selection for one over-heated summer day: Roasted beets vinaigrette…

264 Elizabeth Street off Houston 212/358.7831 about $150 for two, with two drinks, without tip ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Update: The Tasting Room is closed. I’ll miss you.

194 Elizabeth Street between Prince and Spring, New York City 212/965.9511 about $150 for two, with two drinks, without tip ♥ ♥ ♥ It’s hard to convince me to try a restaurant dubbed “Best Place to Impress a First Date” but after walking by Peasant one afternoon, I thought of it as the best place…

142 Mercer Street on Prince 212/431.7676 about $150 for two, with two drinks, with tip ♥ ♥ ♥ There are nights in New York City when you become thankful for the people you know. I was very thankful this one summer night when the manager and sommelier of Lure invited a friend of mine to…

170 Mercer Street off Houston 212/334.5253 about $125 for two, with two drinks, without tip ♥ ♥ ♥ Updated, 2007: Honmura An is now closed. When it’s cold outside, all I want is a hot bowl of soba. When I have money, Honmura An is always my first pick. It’s one of the few places…

105 Thompson between Prince and Spring Streets 212/925.1040 about $60 for two for dinner or $15 for one during lunch, with drinks, with tip ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ At least once a month, I get a craving for Snack’s artichoke chicken salad. A big bowl of potatoes, butter beans, tomatoes, string beans and chicken are…
