A New Yorker’s Guide Of Restaurants To Experience In The Big Apple
There is an endless list of restaurants to go to in New York City. Even if you eat at a restaurant every night for a year, you will still have your work cut out for you. Over the last three years in New York, I like to think I've made some head way, but there are still some ones I really would like to try.
Lupa may not be as well known as Babbo or Del Posto, but houses some of the best pasta in the city, by none other than Mario Batali. It is always packed, however, and every time I have tried to get a table walking in, I have been unsuccessful.
The Little Owl is a West Village restaurant that is notoriously difficult to get into. This is because there are less than 10 tables in the whole restaurant. My roommate still raves about the soft shell crab and halibut he had there.

Two of my friends won big in Atlantic City the other week, and as a result, treated themselves to one of New York's finest meals and one of its hardest restaurants to get into, Momofuku Ko. After a 15 course meal, in which the chef is cooking right before your eyes as you sit around a counter, both my friends exclaimed this is the best meal they have had.
WD-50 - Wylie Dufrenes is well known as the creator of the molecular gastronomy eating revolution. If you do not know what molecular gastronomy is, then you must google "wd 50" and check out some of the images that come up.
While I have been for lunch, I have yet to experience what many are calling the best brunch in the city. Co. Pizza in Chelsea. This spot has been known as one of the best Neapolitan pies the city currently has to offer, and I look forward to trying it.
Lucali - What? A slice of pizza you say? Lucali is supposed to be one of the best slices in the city, and involves trekking to Brooklyn and waiting on a long line. One of these days I will make the trek.
Just outside of Manhattan, in the heart of Woodside, Queens, resides a Thai restaurant that stands out above the rest. It is called Sripraphai, and has somehow garnered a 27 rating from Zagat, which puts it amongst the highest rated in the city.
Besides food, this author also frequently publishes information regarding designer sofas and recliner sofas.
