Authentic Brasserie on John just off Broadway that used to be manned by chef-turned-TV-star Anthony Bourdain. Consistently terrific in terms of food and service. It's our local.

This bar & restaurant by Tom Colicchio (of Top Chef) at the new Beekman Hotel sits underneath the gorgeous 6 story atrium that has been restored to its original glory (some say better!) so grab a drink at the classy bar and enjoy a bite or two. Also in the hotel is Keith McNally's newly opened Augustine.
