Favorite NY Restaurants: WD-50, Jean Georges, Ssam Bar and Taylor
Favorite Menu Items: At WD-50, Jean Georges, and Taylor, always get their tasting menu because the chefs include what they think is their best culinary creation. At Ssam Bar get their pork buns, and ALWAYS, ALWAYS GET DESSERT WHERE EVER YOU GO!!
Why do you love them?1. WD-50 always has something new and surprising on the menu. They made a puff beef tenderloin, so instead of pork rinds you have puff beef tenderloin!
2. Of all the top, upper echelon restaurants, Jean Georges is the fun one! They're an old school 4 star restaurant. The food is always consistently good and the desserts from pastry chef Johnny Iuzzini are amazing.
3. At Ssam Bar there are no reservations and they are known for their juicy pork buns.
4. Taylor is a restaurant created by a pastry chef who masters sweet and savory. The drinks and food are innovative. They just created an awesome new menu.

Chef Tim Shaw
Favorite NY Restaurant: Wallse in the West Village
Your Favorite Menu item: Austrian pheasant strudel, rabbit stew, goulash, and/or schnitzel, with a great dessert wine and a decent cheese tray to finish. “I pretty much have the Morbier and a dessert wine every time I am there.”
Why do you love it? “I love it because every meal I have eaten there has been note perfect - its all Austrian, so I have had a pheasant strudel, a rabbit stew, goulash, schnitzel, and they have all been flavorful, filling yet not overly fussy. The service is impeccable, and the wine list is all-Austrian and features some great choices”
