I recently broke my jaw from a fall, and unfortunately I'm wired shut for 2 months. I've been able to do smoothies, soups, and drinks, but I'm curious if anyone knows of spots that maybe do very soft or puree foods? It might be a stretch, but maybe there's restaurants out there that I can eat at while I'm recovering after surgery. Thanks!

hi,came across fat Ronnie burger in west village, never had before. is it any good? how does it compare to shakeshack and burgerhead? thanks

I work near Penn Station, and we're always looking for outdoor/rooftop bars nearby for a drink after work. There are a few options (The Rutherford and Avenida are fine, though the menus are limited; Beer Authority and the bar at the Yotel are okay), but we're looking for more. We're a nonprofit so we're not looking for a fancy cocktail bar, but we are willing to travel a bit. Any suggestions?

where can i find a good STRONG black or oolong milk tea??

I’m visiting family and I’m hoping to bring them a food gift that I can fly with. Where can I find the best or most intriguing house made cured meats in New York? I only know La salumina upstate

I find that 99% of Calabrina chilis available are jarred in oil. I would like to find some that are fresh and not in oil! Help please!

My husband and I snagged last minute tickets at a great price to see a show in midtown tomorrow night to celebrate our anniversary. we will be spending the day somewhere in midtown but dont really have any super set plans beyond an 8pm show. we have about $160plus tip to cover both meals for the two of us. we are both pretty adventurous eaters and just looking for some recommendations for something new to try. love thai, steak, seafood, and anything a bit adventurous. like most other things. not looking for fast food, pizza, or standard Chinese like we can get in our tiny PA town.

had this in Vegas and it was so good and I just stopped in about 10 cafes and nobody had it in New York. I tried to see if they can make it since it's just a tiny mocha sort of but was turned down every time.

in Vegas Illy made it. I haven't gone to the Illy here but looking online they have a different variation without the chocolate.

Does anyone have any recommendations for Indian restaurants with good food and fair prices that also has a cool interior/indoor look inside the restaurant? For example, somewhere that has a cool or creative look inside that isn’t crazy expensive. Preferably it would be in Manhattan but could go elsewhere if needed. I am from LA so this is new to me, any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I’ll be taking my family to the viewing deck of one Vanderbilt tomorrow and have a few people that cannot walk very far distances (disabled)

Are there any good recommendations for a sit down restaurant near / in one Vanderbilt? Mainly looking for good service and also multiple good dishes that don’t have beef in it (so most steakhouses probably a no-go). Price is less important but let’s say a $75pp cap.

Distance probably within a square of Lexington to 5th ave and 46th to 39th street

I tried doing some searches on here and google and couldn’t find many good options.

Edit - 4 people.

Just made a reservation for four next month. Three of us are not big eaters, so I opted for the Tasting Menu. Can the last member of our party "upgrade" to the Unlimited Grand Wagyu Menu, or does everyone have to be on the same page?

Also any thoughts, tips, or suggestions gleaned from your experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all! I’m trying to find a NYC restaurant with a private room for about 30-40 people for brunch/lunch for a baby shower. Ideally the place is no more than roughly $100 per person. Open to Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan as long as it’s not too difficult to get to. Open to cuisine! Any suggestions? Thank you!

Finally got around to this place. Had the verde and chile colorado burritos. I found both…fine. I prefer a more slender burrito with only a few fillings, but both fillings were nothing to sing about. A little bland, even. I expected a little more zing. What I was most surprised about being underwhelmed by was their famous tortillas. They were way spongier than I expected. Almost like (not trying to be needlessly provocative here) naan. If that’s how “authentic” flour tortillas are, fine, but it wasn’t really for me.

I’m sure this is an unpopular opinion, but just being honest. What’s everyone else’s thoughts on LBJ?
