A New Yorker’s Guide Of The Most Enjoyable Meals I Have Eaten In NYC

Having lived in New York for the past three years and being obsessed with food, I have been to quite a few amazing restaurants. Over time, my taste has changed, but the transcendent restaurants have managed to stay with me.

Here are some of the best meals I have had in New York.

Gotham was my first experience with fine dining. This restaurant has been a New York staple for over 25 years and with good reason. From the food to the dcor to the service, everything is impeccable and makes for a memorable experience.

When it comes to sushi, Sushi Yasuda takes the cake. Yasuda serves the best sushi I’ve ever had, which is both a blessing and a curse. Once you are exposed to the brilliance of Yasuda’s cuts and rice, no sushi will ever taste the same. And that is not a good thing.

If you are looking for adventure or romance, Blue Hill at Stone Barns is the answer. Located about 30 minutes outside of the city, Dan Barber’s farm-to-table masterpiece resides on a farm from which all the dishes are prepared. It redefines freshness.

As of today, Le Bernardin is the best meal I have ever experienced. A friend and I went and did the 9 course chef’s tasting, which is a seafood masterpiece. Everything we had was incredible, with the standout being the truffled Langostine.

But what will be my favorite meal three weeks from now? I only question this because I am going to Per Se. I had to make this reservation over 2 months ago and have been anticipating this meal ever since. A lot of hype to live up to, but I am confident that Thomas Keller’s staff will not let me down.

Il Mulino is an old-world Italian restaurant that transports you to a living room. You better come hungry, and don’t fill up on the bread!
