  1. anywhere in Manhattan is fair game...we'd like to pay no more than $30 per person. (we are still students. :)) and we probably won't be drinking alcohol, so that shouldn't be a consideration. thanks!
  2. I'm looking for a quiet, romantic (yet not overly expensive) restaurant in manhattan for an anniversary dinner. :) We both really enjoy ethnic foods (Vietnamese, in particular), but are up for just about anything. Any suggestions? Thanks!
  3. Sadly enough, it's closed for good and a Subway is taking its place. I never had a chance to eat there--so sad. Subway replacing Les Copains! *sigh*
  4. Sakura is still owned by Albert and Andrew. I was just there recently. I think they were on vacation. The sushi there is quite cheap (especially for a student budget) and good...try the marble roll and the spicy tuna roll. Other great places: Witherspoon Bread Company--one of my favorite bakeries, fabulous biscotti Blue Pointe Grill--my favorite place for fish! It's all freshly caught and prepared very simply. Bent Spoon--I agree with all the previous posts. The sorbet here is amazing. Good Chinese places near Princeton: Happy City--someone mentioned this one, and I think the food is pretty authentic. However, be forewarned, my friends and I have questioned the sanitary conditions. I have actually had indigestion problems a couple times after eating there. Sunny Garden--good, expensive Chinese food. :) It's not terribly authentic, but I like the stir-fry lamb and basil. Shanghai Park--my goodness, the "xiao long bao" here are remarkable. It's a ways up Rt. 27 into Highland Park, but it's well worth it. Great Shanghai--this is perhaps the best Chinese restaurant in the area. (I have yet to try Szechuan Ace.) The dim sum is good, and the main dishes are spectacular as well. Very authentic, flavorful...great atmosphere as well. I believe it's in Edison. Penang--not quite chinese, but it's very good. :) The menu is an extensive one, and chances are there is something for everyone. They even have a good dessert menu! (which is unusual for asian restaurants)
