Where do I have to eat in NYC?

Anonymous
We have a three day trip coming up. I already have two diners covered. Any recommendations for where we should hit up for breakfast/brunch/lunch? I have no preferences other than memorable food or experience. And we have one more diner, so if anyone has any suggestions for something in the $25-35 entree range, I would appreciate it!

We are staying close to Times Square (against my better judgement) but location doesn't much matter, as we are in no rush and can get anywhere.

TIA

Brunch at Bubby's in Brooklyn is good. It's in the DUMBO area, and just a block from a little park along the waterfront, which is great for a stroll with the kids. A great alternative to Bubby's brunch is going to the same area on a weekday, and grabbing coffee and pastries at Amandine bakery just up the street; then enjoy it at the picnic tables in the park. For dinner, we enjoyed Stanton Social - the two memorable dishes for us were the French onion soup dumplings and the beef wellington. Have fun!

Carnegie Deli for NY Deli (can also do Katz's but the lines have gotten really long)

Joes Pizza-Greenwich Village

Russ and Daugthers (take out only)

for lox, bagels etc.

Dim sum in Chinatown-we like jing fong

Cannolis at Bruno Bakery in the West Village

Peter Lugers for Steak (expensive but so worth it)

Do not eat in Times Square everything is a chain and touristy

Had a meal on Mother's day at Blue Planet Grill, it was fantastic. My kids were with me as well, they accomodated the kids even though they do not really have a kids menu.

Norma's at Le Meridien Hotel is fun for brunch.

My husband loves Peter Lugers but you seriously have to make reservation nearly a year in advance.
