Going for a week and I want to try some new places. Le Colonial and Orsay are always musts, at least for me. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

what kind of food do you like?
my favorite little affordable french bistro is Cafe Charbon on Orchard. Bet mussels and steak tartare i have ever had....and all entrees are about $20 or less.
For German i love Zum Schneider in alphabet city/east village. Amazing german beer, fun vibe, and realy solid food. Again, entrees under $20.
Blue Ribbon Brassiere in Soho serves my favorite single dish. the beef marrow and oxtail marmalade appetizer is just insane. They serve food until 4 or 5 am, so you can go any time. the entrees are a little more, but just stop in, have a beer and try that app at the bar. it's more than accepted.
eat at Grammercy Tavern for lunch, in the bar. Amazing food at half the price of the dining room. Try the "bacon" entree if it is offered. No reservations taken for the bar/pub room....but its still a very nice setting.

Gino is a place right off lexington and 61st in the upper west side. Takes cash only. Very affordable dishes with a killer Manhattan cocktail.

If your into beer, you can do a tour/tasting at the Brooklyn brewery, only one subway stop out of manhatten (iirc). No food at the brewery, but walking distance to an inexpensive Thai/asian place with ok food, but a really cool/hip atmosphere (can't remembaer the name of the restaurant).

Sea is the name of the Thai place

There is a great little Italian place at the corner of Spring and Sullivan streets in Soho called IL Mezzagiornio. The fricking waiters could not speak english and the food was off the hook.

I am not nearly as knowledgable as el tigre in NYC restaurants, but I really love Il Vagabondo on the Upper East Side. Best veal parm I have ever had.
