This summer, my friends and I took advantage of the last night of NYC’s Restaurant Week. We picked Tom Colicchio’s Riverpark and it has been our tradition ever since to try top-rated, famous NYC restaurants—preferably owned by chefs we adore. Sure it costs a lot, but with a little saving and a foodie’s heart, every penny is worth it.
Our pick for September was Todd English’s The Plaza Food Hall. Now, this is not your typical sit-down restaurant. Situated inside NYC’s Plaza Hotel, it is a“European-inspired specialty food hall offering the finest fresh, prepared and gourmet foods set in a stylish and convenient atmosphere.” There are eight different food stations offering high-quality foods, from thin-crust pizza, to dumplings, sushi, oysters, freshly carved meat, and more!
Lobster Corn Chowder
Chinese Chicken & Ginger Dumplings
Roasted Beet Salad

Seared Salmon + Salmon Cake
