I do believe that I can officially say I have a favorite restaurant in NYC. The Plaza Hotel Food Court. The food there is truly superb. Just like the company. The great thing about NYC in general is that it’s easy to meet someone new, and in the food court-which is not a bunch of tables, but rather bars at open kitchen stations, the design makes it even easier. Though the other people in your party are sitting with you, people you have never met may be sitting with you as well. And, not only do you have other people sitting next to you, but you also have chefs standing in front of you and they make some great company. Quick shout out to James who is one of the Sous chefs there, he made for some great company (and food) when I was there with my family Monday night. See the way the food court is set-up is that there are different “stations” for different types of food, if you’ve been to Harrods in London you know what I am talking about. There is one big menu, so you can order from wherever you would like, it doesn’t matter where you’re sitting. They are on the more expensive side, but for what you get, it is SOO worth it. The food is spectacular and they have everything from burgers to sushi to pasta and plenty in between (don’t miss the Red Velvet cake!)-everyone will be happy. Plus it gives you a reason to visit the Plaza Hotel (visit Eloise). I say Run don’t walk to get something to eat there, you will not be sorry.
