We have just returned from visiting Gus in New York. We also met up with the Price massive and proceeded to eat and drink our way through some of the big apples restaurants. Here's the results Best all round experience - Il Buco di Alimentari .... our first night and probably the best food and ambience, although Gus and I were unable to move properly after eating the absolutely massive (and delicious) short ribs. http://ilbucovineria.com/ Best view - Wythe hotel, Brooklyn .... Gus is living in Williamsburgh so the night we went to see his appartment we checked out the very recently opened and achingly hip Wythe Hotel. the view from the bar is absolutely spectacular and the restaurant, Reynards, is not bad either. http://wythehotel.com/ Best star spot - we saw the artist Chuck Close in Il Buco the sister restaurant to Il Buco di alimentari. we should have been at Locanda Verde but they let us down by getting the reservation wrong and then were rude and unhelp
