Inviting cocktail bar with great drinks and food. I can only vouch for the turkey-leg sandwich (amazing) because I can't bring myself to order anything else...

Some of the best pizza in New York. Beyonce and Jay Z are fans! Unfortunately, so are a lot of people, so go early or plan on an hour wait.

Essentials

I joke that this place is my Cheers. It's a cheese shop with all kinds of delicious provisions: craft beer, charcuterie, fancy chocolates. Great spot to pick stuff up for a picnic or dinner party.

Fancier and pricier than Trader Joe's, but they have a great produce section. Sort of like a mini Whole Foods.
