Because my second favorite thing in life is food (!), I would like to share with you some thoughts about the greatest restaurants in NYC. Italian ones..
People who know me here are well aware of the fact that I just adore everything that's Italian. Especially 'cucina italiana'!
In 1931 a long-sought dream became reality. Giuseppe Cipriani opened the doors to Harry's Bar in Venice.. Then he became opening restaurants in Italy, USA, Hong Kong..
The first and most important italian restaurant in New York is CIPRIANI DOWNTOWN.
Address: 376 West Broadway
Between Spring & Broome Streets
New York, New York 10012
Enormously amazing experience and your peek of the trip! The secret of Cipriani isn't about what can be seen or touched, but what can be felt and sensed. It is intangible but palpable.
Definitely you can meet inside many Celebrities, who just as same as I do, adore this place.
Design inside? Breathtaking. For a moment you can feel like you are in Venice @ Harry's Bar.

Daily they have amazingly prepared menu for guests. I ate there very tasty Capellini Sirenetta- Angel hair with shrimp & arugula in a light tomato sauce.
Great service, extremely Italian and extremely handsome waiters ; )
