★★★★★ Hidden gem of gastronomic wonder
★★★☆☆ Good French bistro relies too much on atmosphere
Today was museum day. MOMA has been a destination for us both as timing on previous visits did not work out. This time, however, we had tickets in hand and we were set to see the Tim Burton exhibit (on the last day -- lucky us).Â
★★★★★ Steak as it should be done, always
We started off at Jean-Georges Nougatine, which overlooks Central Park. A fun part of the experience was befriending our neighbor. Caroline, an Australian ex-pat, was a very charming lady who shared a few Venice tips. Apparently, she lived next door in Trump Tower. We wondered what her story might be, as she seemed to lead a very interesting and glamorous life. We may never know.
★★★★☆ Modern Italian near Little Italy
