My squeeze and I don't often get to spend a fun weekday together, but we're both playing hooky (shhh!) on Wednesday to have a leisurely/romantic lunch and finally do some fun bumming-around-the-city stuff we haven't managed to in ages.

The obvious question: Where should we have lunch? We've already weighed some options, like Lupa, Gramercy Tavern, Mesa Grill, Tabla, Devi, Gotham Bar & Grill and Union Square Cafe, but nothing's leaping out at us.

Serious Eaters in and around New York City, we need your help! Can you suggest a delicious meal at a sweet or funky or adventuresome restaurant?

No restrictions: Sock it to us. And thanks in advance!
