True sibaritic experiences are not found in Manhattan but in Queens; Manhattan catters to the
American palate while this ""boro"" has real ethnic and honest places like Park Side. Although not a classic italian, I dare you to find seafood fresher, juicier and plumpier like the one that is served amongst fetuccini, inside raviolis or SIMPLY RAW LIKE THE BEST OYSTERS I EVER TRIED INCLUDING all THE PACIFIC RIM AND Half Shell oysters in KW. Tiramisu is special here. For coffee try a cafe romano in a big demitase cup, with its sugar lined rim and ask ""Epi"" to do the fireworks on it: a touch of Sambucca and the ignition of lemon peel (and human nails, sometimes). For the best seat, ask for the ""Manuel Vargas table"", looking at the garden where the tomatoes are harvested.
Pros: Seafood, Price, Parking
