Pigs, cows, or chickens?
It doesn't matter to me.
I shall eat them all.

From Talk

NYC Restaurants (Lunch and Dinner)

Noodle bars: Ippudo (excellent ramen), Minca, or Setagaya. Momofuku is also great, but not if you're looking for anything traditional.

Jewish/matzoh ball soup: 2nd Avenue Deli (kosher), Barney Greengrass (smoked sturgeon - delicious).

Mexican: neither are necessarily authentic, but Barrio Chino and Mexicana Mama are both great, and fun.

Fried chicken: Amy Ruth's (for the real deal), and Blue Ribbon or Blue Ribbon Bakery (for the high end).

Events: Brooklyn Uncorked at BAMcafé

Pretty much everything on the menu at Franny's -- but if my life depended on picking a favorite, I'd say the wood roasted octopus.
