Published on

Seekers of delectable delights will be rewarded in New York City-- a winter wonderland for adventuring foodies! From acclaimed gourmet eateries to small but beloved local spots, this grand metropolis brims with extraordinary taste sensations. Whether one fancies a traditional gustatory experience or desires a more daring adventure, NYC has the perfect palate-pleasing answer that you'll remember fondly for all time. For an unforgettable mealtime journey into some of the greatest wonders - here are three undeniably incredible places to eat in America’s dynamic Big Apple!

Katz's Delicatessen - For over a century, Katz's Delicatessen has been the classic backdrop of familial meals and cinematic moments alike. The pungent aroma of matzoh ball soup still fills its walls that have seen everything from Meg Ryan’s unforgettable scene in “When Harry Met Sally" to countless other movies and TV shows. Today it is one of few Jewish delis remaining - an inviting reminder for visitors to relive history by sitting at the same table where two icons once were all those years ago: just ask them what she had, you won't be disappointed!

Hollywood fame aside, Katz’s food is really that good! There’s nothing more New York than a pastrami on rye & no one does it better than Katz's. This is no ordinary pastrami. It’s legendary for a reason — it’s prepared rigorously for weeks & the tastiest Pastrami you can buy. The melt- in-your- mouth meat is a memorable excursion into deli sandwich luxury. ( Pro tips: don’t lose your order ticket or you won’t eat, know what you’re ordering when you get to the counter or you may get yelled at & ask for mayo at your own peril) For their corned beef is shown the same tender, loving care as the pastrami & is cured for 30 days. Their brisket sandwich is roasted in Grandma's gravy & Katz's Hot Dogs are Voted Best in NYC. For sides, the Potato Latkes are served with apple sauce & sour cream & the grand finale, the NY style cheesecake is sinful. In the words of the talented, knife-wielding meat cutters behind the counter, "Who's Next?!" (Katz’s ships nationwide)

Don Giovanni Ristorante - A family affair, Don Giovanni Brick Oven Coal Pizza Ristorante has been in Chelsea and the Theatre District for 25 sweet years. The aroma of authentic Italian flavors wafts through their outdoor cafes as thin-crust pizzas fire up to crunchy perfection over aged brick ovens - creating a relaxed atmosphere that can make any patron feel right at home. Margherita? Quattro Formaggi? White Clam perhaps? Delightful options await those looking to be transported by robust Neapolitan flavor – no matter your pick it will satisfy you deliciously!

Ippudo, East Village. Ramen lovers & chefs know the beauty of ramen is that there is no strict rules on how to make it or even eat it! Everyone has the freedom to put their soul into the bowl. And, New York City takes its ramen very seriously, with noodle shops opening up in every neighborhood. Ippudo was founded in 1985 in Japan. Presently, it is a worldwide phenomenon with restaurants in over 10 countries. Ippudo's three NYC locations have a warm and welcoming feel and their ramen really hits the spot. Ippudo boasts a spacious, lively atmosphere with an open kitchen format that allows for guests to observe the care and preparation that goes into each dish. Ippudo is famous for its tonkotsu (pork-based) & a must try! Order the house special—Akamaru Modern, a delicious broth topped with Ippudo's secret “Umami Dama” miso paste & finally, Vegetarians highly recommend Ippudo's Wasabi Shoyu Ramen, a soy sauce and vegetable noodle soup topped with bean curd and wasabi infused oil.
