DID SOMEONE SAY PB??
Let's see....
-Quickie mentioned Junior's, which is a great choice. Order the Cheesecake.
-Carnegie is closing soon, so I'd recommend Katz instead if Carnegie is closed.
-For really good Ramen, I'd recommend Ippudo (of course, I really like the Pork Buns more. So there are other good Ramen joints. Totto Ramen is also good)
-For good straight up NY Pizza, Bleecker St. Pizza is a great place. Joe's Pizza is also good. Lombardi's is great for the original, traditional pizza. I consider Totonno's in Brooklyn to be the best place. L&B Spumoni Gardens has amazing big square slices.
-Best Thai place is in Queens. SriPraPhai.
-Wo Hop is one of the best secret NY spots in the city. Open late and really good (Go to the downstairs one)
