"The Ultimate Frozen Dessert" by Bruce Weinstein
Quid Pro Quo, Kattyeyes! The internet gives you a recipe, you give the internet a recipe!...namely that chocolate gelato one.
What if I say "Please"?

Thanks to all for their suggestions!
We ended up going to Mesa Grill. I was very satisfied to say the least.
Wrapped up the whole meal with an Irish coffee and hit the town. Great trip, great city. Thanks again, NY! I want to be a part of it!
Recent Duty-Free Visit Yields 190-Proof Grain Alcohol...Now What?!
If only they sold it in Ontario...
The best we can get up here is Bacardi 151. I was looking for the strongest, most flavour-neutral spirit I could find. I suppose the end result (190-proof neutral grain spirit) is just a high-proof vodka.
Even if they sold it in Ontario, it would probably cost $55.00 to $65CAN for 1.75 L...and if I'm gonna pay THAT much for booze, I want it aged in a barrel on a remote island.

Good point, ted. Pretty much anything over 100 proof will sustain a flame...and this stuff is 190!
Yeah, those airlines aren't too fond of the clear liquids anymore...especially the combustible ones. I moved my stuff in a minivan.

Wow, great details! Thanks for the replies, folks!. I'll consider the input and let everyone know how it goes.

I just came back from my first trip to New York City. Great times. Great city.
At the duty-free I snagged a 1.75L bottle of grain alcohol, presumably for making my own bitters/digestifs/aperatifs...but now I'm spoiled for choice and can't decide what to make!
I don't know when I'll get my hands on this stuff again so I want to make the best recipe I can with what I've got.
Any recommendations, folks?

If it's going to be great, I don't mind paying for it, I'll put it that way.
Any and all food experiences will be a change from what I'm used to, so literally all suggestions are welcome. Fine dining, greasy spoons, coffee spots, you name it.

Hey Folks,
Some friends and I are planning a weekender in New York for late November. As an aspiring Chowhound, I'm seeking a great meal to commemorate the trip.
Any and all suggestions are welcome!
We're staying at the Grand Union Hotel at 32nd and Park.
