Alonti is another one of those random midtown lunch places. This one specializes in making pasta fresh to order. Choose a type of pasta shape, a sauce, and extra ingredients (for an extra price) and it'll be tossed together fresh and hot on the spot. It's pretty good and prices start at $5.95. Inside, it's like a Starbucks if you want to eath there, but most peopel bring it back to their offices. Their garlic bread is terrible though.

This is one of my favorite places in the city to get fresh produce and meats. Everything is fresh and there is a large variety of fruits and vegetables. The meat is always tender and the staff is very helpful. Their are lots of fresh spreads and pickles jars not to mention the mouthwatering pastries that are baked daily. Also, try a slice of their pizza made with their own fresh ingredients. The pizza is not greasy at all and is definitely worth trying.

because if you're not, you may get a bit of the cold shoulder form the staff. If you do, try not to be discouraged. Not like it's right, but it does happen that we get better treatment because they know us. That said, the food here is very good. The brunch is more well known, but do yourself a favor and go for dinner. Those of you big on conversation during dining will appreciate it.

There is really not too much difference between the Ben's delis. This is the first time I had eaten at the one on 38th Street in Manhattan. It is an attractive restaurant, although it is not typical of a deli, which to me has less atmosphere than this location (it is on the elegant side for a deli).
The menu is quite extensive--almost like a Greek diner. There are dozens of deli sandwiches--things like corned beef, pastrami, tongue, etc. There are pickles, pickled green tomatoes, and cole slaw on the table. But there are also salads and things we do not think of as typical deli fare.
The service was on the slow side, but I was there with seven other people, who did not all come at exactly the same time.
In short, a nice deli experience.

Wonderful! Perfect! Cozy and incredible food, lovely and.. did I say perfect yet? This place and Daniel are my two favorite restaurants in the city so far. While Daniel is more romantic and date-like.. Bouley is somehow more comfy, and the kind of place you can meet your bf/gf's parents at for the first time (wink!), without feeling overly constrained. Everything I had here was delicious, and because it was my bf's birthday, they brought out an entire table's full of cake and random goodies at the end. Very expensive, but also wonderful! (Random: There are free apples in the lobby for you to take at the end.. I guess if you pick enough of them you can sell them and try to make back some of the money you spent at dinner!).

Okay, their prices have gone up, and they removed all the wonderful Frida Kahlo portraits recently, and the staff is sweet but slow -- however, Cafe Frida still rocks. You will find impeccably prepared, fresh food beyond the basics of fajitas and quesadillas to the adventurous and regional (try the seafood soup, a kind of Mexican bouillabaise), some of the best salsa in town, great margaritas made with fresh lime juice for a change...and best of all, it's near the Museum of Natural History, an area notable for its lack of decent and decently priced restaurants.
