It’s nearly impossible to create a list of favorite restaurants in a city as large as New York. What one usually gets is a list in a particular area and in our case, most of our favorites are south of 23rd Street (in the Greenwich Village and Soho neighborhoods). Our friend, Moran Bar-Kochva, who lives in New York and goes out often, came up with most of the entries. In future posts, we will add restaurants and cafes in other neighborhoods.
