Try Taboon -- wonderful classy middle eastern food . It's on 10th Avenue in the West 50s. Two Italian theatre district classics are Becco and Lattanzi, both best visited after 8 PM. Also try Marseille -- lovely south-of-France cuisine. Also Trattoria del Arte. Enjoy!
From my hot and steamy St. Louis childhood summers:
barbecued ribs, made in the old stone grill in our back yard
watermelon
Corn on the cob
tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes...
"Bomb pops" from the ice cream man
and frozen custard from Ted Drewes! (Preferably a hot fudge sundae, jumbo size!).
tellicherry, if you say greenwich, people 'round these here parts will think you're referring to connecticut. to sound like a local, refer to it as "the village".
Hey, Pfossil! I wish I had seen your recs before I left for New York. I would have loved to try Marseille.
Simon, Landmarc was dead on. I can not thank you enough. I had the hangar steak with green peppercorn sauce. Then I offered to bear the grill guy's babies. Absolutely incredible.
I unexpectedly found myself in Greenwich, so I checked out Otto. House cured olives, goat cheese and swiss chard pizza, followed with bufalo ricotta gelato with figs and lemon curd. Amazing and delicious; I could not stop eating. I was so stuffed I walked from 8th St all the way to 53rd!
The memories of hand cranking ice ceam in my grandparents' back yard flood over me. The "ice cream" sold in stores today is no comparison. My favorite was fresh peach. Everyone raves over Georgia peaches; but growing up in central Alabama, you can't get any better than Chilton county peaches.
