whew!!! glad I finally made it to this thread...

In Chinatown... there's lots of places to get great noodles for very cheap.

I'm going to recommend some interesting places, first $1 dumplings... yes $1 for 5 boiled or fried dumpings...really can't be beat.

(this blog is also a great resource for food!!!)

Noodles, what kind of noodles? thick, thin, broad, wide? soupy or fried? depending on the noodles will depend on the recommendation

Ice cream: Chinatown Ice Cream Factory they have some interesting flavors from Lychee to Red Bean to Vanilla and Rocky Road. It's packed in the summers, and still busy even during the winter months.

Coffee and pasteries.. Cafe Lalo (where Meg Ryan meets Tom Hanks in You've Got Mail)

West Village... Chumley's good burgers and good pints, last time we were there they had good steaks according to the Aussies we had in tow. Writers hung out here and there are dust covers on the walls of all the authors that have been there. It's also a speak easy and a challenge to find also. It's on Bedford and Barrow @ 86 Bedford

If you are a Seinfeld fan then you must have some soup from the famed Soup Nazi inspiration at the International Soup Kitchen, soup is expensive about $9 for 16oz of piping hot soups, but it comes with a box of fruit, a chocolate, and some bread. It's some of the best soup I've ever eaten. They are only open for lunch and if you get there late in the afternoon they will have less selection. Note: Rules are important to follow. I did not get my change the first time I ordered because I did not follow the rules.

as I come up with more I'll post them here.
