Two nights in NYC?
I have never been to New York City but I will be visiting for the US opens for 3 days...where do I absolutely need to eat? I love sushi, tapas, anything seafood, but I am open to anything. Suggestions?

I have no idea why I have never discovered it until now...but I am instantly addicted. What are your favorite things to mix-in fage? Sweet or savory? I need some ideas!
I have never made cheese before, but I was just reading a blog that talked about making your own fresh mozzarella and I was intrigued. Does anyone have a cheese recipe that might be a good place for me to start as a beginner in cheese making?
i'm only spending 1 day at the Open so the restaurants don't have to be close by, I am staying at the Warwick Hotel if there is anything within walking distance that I should look at.
wrap thin strips of smoked salmon on steamed asparagus spears...i think i sealed the salmon to the asparagus with a tiny bit of herbed cream cheese. very light and yummmmy!
FUJI!!! In any and every way possible...i think i need one now.
I just roasted corn on the cob with the lime/butter trick and thought it was fantastic....mix up butter with lime juice and cilantro, and smear all over the cob. then wrap in foil and roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes. i also think this would be good with butter/paprika mix. yum!
today i am having a small pita stuffed with hummus, avocado and cucumbers, yuummm! also, some fruit and cereal in the morning.
veggies, salad, hummus and pita, cold pizza....it doesn't matter, ill eat anything in the morning that i would have for lunch. but mostly i stick to kashi cereal
I had one of the best meals of my life at Blue Moon Fish Company and I recommend it to everyone who will listen. The menu is always changing but if they are still serving the baked grouper with crab/corn cake...it is a must.
Fuji, although (based on the comments), I think I'll try Honey Crisp... Apples with fruit dip: mix an 8-ounce pkg. softened cream cheese with 1/4 cup jam of choice. Let it chill and eat with any fruit. I think it's best with apples!
If you like spicy Asian food, try Seoul Soondae in Flushing.

Definitely get the soondae if you're feeling adventurous (pig intestines doesn't match with everyone's taste buds, but it's actually quite good). Also, the Gamja Tang there is fantastic (Beef bone spicy stew with lots of potato, not sure where the bone comes from but looks like the backbone)
classic NYC pizza - John's on Bleecker Street in Greenwich Village. A great strolling destination, you can take the 1 train from your hotel to Christopher-Sheridan Square...Bleecker is a good foodie destination, before or after your pizza, too - famous cheese and bread shops (Murray's and Amy's respectively), classic Italian bakeries that sell homemade Italian ices (among other things), fun people-watching.
The only apples I truly love are mountain apples that I've picked and snacked on from my aunt's yard in Hawaii. They are reddish, small, on the softer side when you bite into them, slightly sweet, and have a rose flavor.
The fluffy blossoms are beautiful too.
Gotta luv my McCoun apples. They're crisp, juicy and not quit tart, but not quite sweet either. Only problem - - they are only available here for a relatively short time (about 6 weeks +/-) and they have a relatively short shelf-life :(
I love Granny Smiths, just about any way. Plain, Stewed, with cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg, in a pie, chopped in a salad, dipped in caramel, then in nuts...you name it!
Macintosh or Cortlands, straight off a tree in the middle of a New England Orchard....then, later at home, peeled, buttered, sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon, and wrapped in a round of pie dough and baked to perfection...
"Oh, sweet mystery of life, at last I've found you!"
how about some nice fresh figs wrapped with prosciutto -- or melon wrapped with prosciutto? Very quick, easy, delish and light (and summery)
Since you are already grilling, how about grilling fruit? And then making some side dips...
BTW, I want to crash your dinner. :) Sounds yummy!!
