Manhattan: UES Dining
Sunday night's dinner plate looked like this mezze plate I copied from Google images. I was famished by the time I got back to the apartment around 7:30p, and thankfully, so was my hostess. We walked a few block to Beyoglu and dined al fresco. Mediterranean salads (tabouli, eggplant, humus, yogurt, stuffed grape leaf, and olives) created a veritable work of art, which I consumed along with a fine Greek Cabernet.
Monday night we ventured 6-8 blocks for Chinese, the favorite dish being Chicken with Three Nuts. Tuesday's dinner at Mumtaz's (authentic Indian cuisine) capped off my whirlwind tour of NYC.
I would recommend all three of these restaurants and might even submit a review to this fun guide of everything UES, if I lived in the area.
Here's a link to my favorite NYC breakfast.

We've had visitors from Brooklyn in our area for a few weeks. And I just received Helene Hanff's book about NYC, Apple of My Eye, in the mail. I am SO ready to go to NYC. Alas, I don't know when that would be.
@magistramater - I love Helene Hanff, but have never read this particular volume. I will try and find a copy of Apple of My Eye. Tanks!
