Ai Fiori
You've probably had Michael White's meal before if you know anything about eating well in New York. Ai Fiori is merely another gem in his crown as a star of the city's culinary industry. This must-visit restaurant is located within the opulent walls of the Langham Place Hotel and serves predominantly Italian cuisine with a dash of flavor from its Mediterranean neighbors.
White has assembled a talented and seasoned team of chefs and servers, including Scott Schneider in the kitchen, who are well-versed in the New York restaurant industry, within the moody and somber dark-wood diner. The pricing structure is more than fair for the cuisine of this caliber. The exquisite and thoughtful vegetarian tasting menu costs an additional $125 per person in addition to the four-course prix-fixe menu, which costs $108 per person. Who could blame you if you spot something on the menu that you just can't pass up? If so, you might prefer the seven-course tasting menu, which costs $150. No matter what you do, save room for a gelato or sorbetto treat at the end because few people can make ice cream or sorbet as well as the Italians, and even fewer can match Ai Fiori's quality.
