Mockney, I can wholeheartedly recommend the Union Square Cafe, visited in November. Lovely venue and everything from the cocktails to the deserts were perfect. http://www.unionsquarecafe.com/menus.html Or, at the other end of the scale, if a decent burger and pint of Brooklyn is your thing, you could do a lot worse than this place over in Williamsburg, BK. http://dinernyc.com/
