upper east side, midtown, anything but oriental. casual or fancy is fine....

LOCAL PLACES TO EACH FRIDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT. WE HAVE BEEN TO SCALINATELLA AND CAMPAGNOLA

these are my faves:
cafe nuovo
l'epecurio
prime
sienna...camilles has a great bar

my husband and i ate at emerill's for lunch, it was excellent. we also had our wedding dinner at mixx at the mandolay bay. its very expensive but a gorgeous view. at least go for a drink. believe it or not the italian restaurant at bally's is fabulous. go to effiel tower restaurant for a drink at night.....great views of the water show at the bellagio.

FLOOD TIDE IS A GREAT SPOT

PINK VODKA SAUCE, JAR OF FAVORITE MARINARA SAUCE, 1/4 C VODKA, 3/4 PT. OF HEAVY CREAM. IF YOU WANT TO DO IT LOW FAT, USE FAT FREE HALF AND HALF....NOT AS TASTEY.

MY HUSBAND OWNS HIS OWN MANUFACTURING CO. IN RI. TRY MAKING CHICKEN SAUSAGE OR IF YOU STILL PREFER PORK, TRY GARLIC AND CHEESE, OR THROW SOME CHOPPED BROCCOLI RABE IN AS WELL.

i think it should be warm as well. the caprese will still be delicioso!!!!!!!!

I'VE ACTUALLY BEEN THERE, THATS EXACTLY WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR...MAYBE A LITTLE LESS CROWDED BUT GOOD CHOICE!!!!!!!

I AM GOING TO THE BIG APPLE IN AUGUST. LAST YEAR WE WENT TO A CLUB CALLED BRUNO'S. CAN'T REMEMBER WHERE IT WAS AND REALLY WANT TO GO AGAIN. IT MIGHT BE SEMI-PRIVATE. ALSO, I NEED NAMES OF BUSY RESTAURANTS WITH GREAT FOOD AND BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE.
