NYC Restaurant Poll
Concentrating simply on the food, assuming your meal was prepared in the particular kitchen and magically transferred to your home, which NYC restaurant ranks the best food?
(I'm working on a project, so if you've eaten at any of these places, please cast a vote, or add your own choice)

I cant afford these French restaurants. They are too fucking expensive.

These are expensive places, but if you view food as art, they are worthy of examination, just as certain hot dog stands are. That's a different poll all together.
I think food is legitimate art, I just don't fully understand the whole subject yet. It's a process.

Les Halles is ho hum and in a dead neighborhoood. Plataforma is more fun.
Le Bernardin could be better, the raw bar rocks if you like uncooked molluscs.
Can't help with the other ones, sorry.

I voted for Le Bernardin, but I also like Joel Robuchon and David Bouley. The warm sea urchin dish at Joel Robuchon and the seared foie gras at David Bouley are outstanding. I would like to try Masa someday.

taking everything intoo consideration i go with Le bernadine, eric rippert does great things with seafood, per se is excellent as well but i cant get over the fact im paying that kind of money in a mall and since thomas keller is never there and i have eaten at french laundry i dont see the reason to go back, Daniel is always good, same with JG, Les Halles is more a mid prices place to me although the steak frites are still very good. I have not been to the other 2 mentioned so i wont comment on them. Also for my 2 cents, several old stand byes are still worth mentiong. Gramercy is still excellent, as is gotham. Just about any Danny Meyer rest is consitently good Table, union sq, gramercy etc. I tend to stay away from Chowdorow places, as they are more concened with looks than substance. And Veritas for the wine of course even though the pricing is a bit high. Etats Unis on the upper east for a changing menu is very cool also.
