Review of A Hedonist's Guide to Eat New York (A Hedonist's Guide to...) (Imitation Leather)

Going to New York is a treat for most of us, and when I go, I want to eat at the best places I can find. I've bought several of the Zagat NYC Restaurant Guides in the past, but there's just so many places listed in those and not all of them are even good to start with (by their own ratings).

The Hedonist's Guide to Eat New York takes a different approach. You're one of the best by inclusion. They don't include places to stay away from, and they're not trying to rate every establishment in town. Instead, they pick the best of the best and serve them up for your picking. Each restaurant gets one page, with a photo, cuisine type, reason to go, average price per person, and a review including quotes from why other top NY chefs love that restaurant.

This is the true foodie's guide to New York restaurants. Sure, you'll find the greats like Jean Georges, but you'll also find little neighborhood gems. Be warned though, most of these places are not really "budget traveler friendly".

If you have (or are considering) the Hedonist's Guide to New York, you'll find that there is NOT much overall between the places listed in this restaurant-only guide and the overall guide. I actually bought both, and used both in my recent travels, and would recommend the same to anyone else who really loves to eat -- and to eat well!

Product Description
This is not the typical restaurant guide. Hg2 Eat New York has been compiled from the thoughts of New York's top 150 restaurateurs, chefs, sommeliers, critics, suppliers, and maitre'ds. Each was asked which restaurants were best and where they go to eat when they're not working. Color maps help readers plot each location, while the small size makes it easy to tote and consult.
