Ocha if you are in midtown

Yea... depends on your firm location... If you have these, I'd try: Carl's, Zaitzeff, Lili's, Koodo, A Spicy Route, Komodo, and Koyzina Grill

Never order Zeytuna/Amish market. Worst food ever.

that fit in the daily budget:

the tops
italian - fresh basil's trattoria (heavy, but amazing)
indian - buhkara grill (no lie, better food v most upscales)
chinese - tang pavillion (so fast! and good)
mediterranean - marrakesh (lil more exp, but worth it)
mexican - blockheads

the rest
sushi - monster sushi
gourmet pizza - california pizza kitchen
healthier - the pump/energy kitchen (also quiznos is open late and delivers)
bbq/wings - dallas bbq

if i remember any more, ill post.

Definitely second fresh basil's and will throw serafina/roberto passon's/mangia e bevi in the italian section.

indian - yuva (pricey so probably should get in with others)

chinese - wu liang ye

mediterranean - second marrakesh and would throw akdeniz in there as well.

mexican - toloaches

sushi - yummy sushi from rock center (good quality) or hakata grill (big pieces)

wings - atomic wings is great

sherwood is great for groceries.

Sweet, I'm totally bookmarking this page...

Aki Sushi is really good too.

And yes, I'm in midtown.

there is a guide to seamless a lawyer made several years ago tht always floats around the street. i dont currently have it anymore, but try to get your hands on it. im sure someone on this board still has it.

great thread btw. i third fresh basil's and marrakesh. my #1 recommendation, however, is Casaville (Moroccan food) - the lamb tagine is incredible! very expensive though.

I really like the salmon ceaser salad from salmon river. Make sure you ask for them to cut the salmon up and mix it in. I hear they have a great seared tuna, but it's a bit expensive.

Ohh and if you are feeling lush or particularly classy, Wild Edibles has great oysters and shrimp cocktail. Won't really fill you up but still fun nonetheless.

If you feel like a baller blow up your MD and D to get a Delmonico's Lobster and Steak dinner.

Thanks everybody. That should keep me going for a few days :)

best sandwiches........Indecision from Carve on W47th - get two of them and you're set for the next 12 hours

i second all of the above except the tahini and bison burger from the pump made me wanna throw up.

For lunch shinju sushi has a pretty decent special. They deliver to the FD. Additionally, a zaitzeff burger late night often hits the spot.

For dinner (so far):

Sushi - Haru
Thai - Siam Inn
Indian - Darbar
If you can't decide what you want - Josie's

I ordered from Saigon 48 (Vietnamese) all the time last summer; they have great lunch specials.

Aki Sushi is also pretty good.

Red Lanter had good thai food, not sure if they're still in business though.

any downtown rec?
