For a very special Italian treat, go to San Domenico, and ask for Ms Marissa May, she is a very sweet and friendly owner … a great friend of my Italian nephew, Francesco Buitoni … San Domenico is very high class and elegant but … expensive … web site, 240 Central Park South, 212-265-5959 [MenuPages | NYT | NY Mag | Village Voice | openlist | Gayot | Yelp | Citysearch]
Another suggestion: Da Andrea … a simple Northern Italian trattatoria … go early and enjoy the delicious cooking …. web site, 557 Hudson Street, Hudson and Perry Streets in the West Village, 212-367-1979 [MenuPages | NYT | NY Mag | openlist | Yelp | Citysearch]
