Quick! I need an idea for a place to eat in mid to lower Manhattan......

.....to impress my cousin. She lives in the financial district. I'm already going to ABC kitchen and Morandi.

Thanks in advance for any good ideas!

Does it need to be fancy? If not - check out the Corner Bistro. Best burger in NYC and the place is just super cool. One of my favorite places in the city. Located at 331 West 4th Street in the west village.

Yes. Recently divorced, and apparently not doing to badly (living in the financial district and all). I think she's 56 or so. Looks 40.

There's this street dog vendor on the corner of . . .

Opps, missed that part about impressing cousin, although taking her to a really good street vendor might make a better impression in the Big Apple

If you are really trying to impress - check out Le Coucou. Place is insane - bring your platinum card. Located at 138 Lafayette St, just off Howard.

Better than shake shack? That's still the best burger I've ever had.

Yeah - realistically looking at $400-$500 to have a great dinner there. I really liked it when my corp amex was paying.

How much for a burger there? I may try it for lunch that day, as my wife will be getting ready for a gala I'm not invited to.

Can also try Uncle Boons. Very eclectic. We are talking Beer Slushies here. Also awesome food. Michelin rated as well, I believe. Try the lamb and the snails if you are adventurous. Amazing! Pretty reasonable - around $100 for two. 7 Spring St - take the spring street subway stop. It's right next to Elizabeth Street Garden.

Burger and a beer will run ya about $20 after tax and tip.

Be careful what you wish for. I think her and LUPS are very much alike. Very quirky, but very intelligent. I don't know if you could handle that.
