these are some great ideas to try.
Great list! I often get asked the same but don't have a running list. I always think that's something I should do. I finally got around to Hotel Griffou a few weeks ago which I loved but I didn't go for dinner. Only drinks after dinner at The Lion which was eh... One of my other longtime faves is Gemma :)
Have you been to the Bourgeois Pig?! I feel like based on this list you might love it!
I'm going to have to print and keep this for the next time I'm in the city!

Even though I moved from NYC 5 years ago, I still recognize a handful of those restaurants. Thanks for triggering the memories.
Haven't been to any of them. Another reason to hop on a plane and fly to NYC!
