NYC next weekend to the nth degree - thoughts?

Love all the comments - thank you. We are from DC, and we lived in San Francisco for years. We both love Chinese, but we've got great Chinese and Dim Sum here. That said, I do really want to try soup dumplings and will creep to Joe Shanghai on Peel Street if we can.

Thanks! Keep the ideas coming. I appreciate advice on Norma's. It gets a 25 Zagat rating though and we find Zagat to be pretty on the mark......

NYC next weekend to the nth degree - thoughts?

So my husband is turning 30 next weekend and we are headed to Manhattan for the first time in ~3 years. We have a jam-packed itinerary of restaurants heavily based on recommendations I got here. It’s a lot of eating, but we plan to walk everywhere and how often does a guy turn 30! Thoughts? Are we overdoing it? Also, of the places listed below, is Gramercy Tavern the only place that a jacket is required?

Thursday night:
Avenue Q
Post theatre dinner @ Babbo

Friday lunch:
Gotham Bar and Grille

Friday night:
Telepan

Saturday morning:
Norma's

Saturday Lunch:
Lombardi's

Saturday Dinner:
Gramercy Tavern

Sunday:
Bagels (ess-a-bagel? murray's? h&h?) and Zabar’s for groceries on our way out of town.
