A Guide on NYC Dining

As a foodie living in Murray Hill (which consists of the East 30’s in NYC), I felt the need to share some of the areas best places to grab a bite or take home some grub. There are so many different places to choose from and if you’re not familiar with the neighborhood, you may end up wasting your time on something average.

Let’s start with Japanese food. Chado Sushi has recently opened in the area and is superb. Unfortunately, it is expensive but it’s darn tasty! The partner/executive chef formerly worked at Sushi of Gari, which is one of the best in NYC. So by no surprise, expect great things. They’re known for their sauces they use and their Omikase, so take a chance and try out whatever the chef suggests.

Boston’s Bay Village Restaurants – Top Gourmet Dining Choices Near Boston’s Theatre District

Bay Village may be Boston’s smallest neighborhood but its location next to the Boston Theatre District means that Bay Village restaurants are top choices for before-show dinners and after-show drinks, as well as fine dining on any other occasion.  You’ll find one of the city’s best French restaurants, a top steakhouse located in a castle, a couple of highly regarded Italian restaurants, and a couple of more casual choices tucked away in this conveniently-located neighborhood.  Here are two mouth-watering options to consider.

Pigalle (75 Charles Street South, next to Radisson Hotel) is a long-time favorite with theater-goers.  This award-winning French restaurant specializes in using the freshest local ingredients to prepare classic French cuisine.  Chef Marc Orfaly offers an a la carte menu with daily specials, as well as several other options: a 3-course prix-fixe menu, a casual bar and patio menu featuring $1 oysters on the half shell plus many other yummy items, and special chef’s tasting menus, with and without wine pairings.  On Wednesdays, there’s even a “kitchen vs. bar battle” that pits 3 tastes from the kitchen against 3 drinks from the bar – this may be a battle, but it’s also a win-win!

Dining Out – Having Fancy Dinners

These days, when you are travelling down the highway, you always see a number of different restaurants or signs that are advertising different restaurants. Although some people do not want to admit it, dining out has become a big part of American life. It used to be when the man of the house came home, the wife had already prepared dinner and it was setting on the table ready for the family to eat. Now, dining has completely changed because now when the man of the house comes home, his wife may not even be home yet because she is at work, and if she is, she is more likely to say; let’s eat out tonight.

Dining in restaurants has become second nature when families or busy, or if they want to dress up and go out to a fancy dinner and a night on the town. It is easier to get dressed up and drive to a place where they prepare all of the food for you and just set it on the table for you to eat rather than sit at home for hours in the kitchen trying to make a meal. Even if a family does want to eat in the comfort of their own home, many restaurants offer takeout and delivery to their customers, where a person can come in and pick up the food and take it home or a person from the restaurant will deliver the food right to your front door.
