HONEYMOON in NYC

Ciao RGR
yes this is my first post, thanks for your welcome and for the congratulations ...this is a great website, I just discovered it surfing a little bit on the web.

Of course the city view is not compulsory, food quality and nice place/atmosphere have the priority.

We come from Italy, so we like all kind of good food: I spent my 2008 summer vacation in the USA (with my fiancè and some friends), a wonderful coast to coast experience, and I was surprised about the american quality of food.
Fantastic steaks and ribs in NYC and in the "desert" states (we toured all around Las Vegas area, National Parks and Death Valley) and amazing fish in California.
I must admit that in Europe we have a completely distorted picture of your food quality.

In conlcusion, it could be either fish or meat based dinner.
No pasta (sorry, but I think it is edible only in my country).
And must be american food based: I like to eat regional cuisine when I am doing the tourist. Mexican/Chinese/Vietnamite... we have also these restaurants here... the idea is to taste something I can find only in NYC.

Little digression: this is the reason I will spend all my money between Shake Shack and Parker Meridien... never tasted better burgers in my life! During my last year stay we were completely addicted to those places (to be honest, one of the reason we are coming back in NYC are these 2 places... do you know other places like that? Any reccomandatons are appreciated...)

Budget: one dinner in NYC to celebrate my wedding ... I really did not estimate a budget. I do not know, let's say 50$ - 100$ per person.

Sorry for the length of my post, it was just to present my self a little bit...I promise to be more concise next time.
