Five Points

 

Five Points: 31 Great Jones St (between Lafayette St & Bowery) New York, NY 10012

Five points is located in New American restaurant located in Noho. It’s a great place to sit down with friends and family to enjoy great dishes. The place is always crowed and there is need to make a reservations earlier on. “Chef Marc Meyer created a menu of simple, rustic yet refined dishes focused on fresh, local and seasonal ingredients.” It’s unfair how tasty the food compare to the price. The Egg Rancheros is a perfect bowl full of flavors with roasted tomato salsa, corn tortillas, Vermont aged cheddar, and egg.


My Favorites: Egg Racheros, Churros with Mexican Hot Chocolate, Shredded Apple & Rolled Oats Pancakes, and Sangria

Le Relais de Venise

Le Relais de Venise: 590 Lexington Ave. (between 51st and 52st.) New York, NY 10022
Le Relais de Venise is a french restaurant located in Midtown East of Manhattan. They don't take any reservation and usually there is never a wait. One of the best part of Le Relais de Venise is that you don't have to think over what you want to eat. The menu is fixed. The appetizer is a green salad with mustard vinaigrette and the entrée is steak and fries. And you can choose how you want your steak to be served. Although the menu seems nothing special, the herb-ed butter sauce is to die for. After a visit to Le Relais de Venise you will crave the sauce and visit them soon. Also they have amazing desserts such as profiteroles.
