  1. Tauro is delish Dominican food.
    Giorgione 508 is right there and pricey-ish but very good.
    SoHo Made soups on Varick between Canal and Watts has very good quick stuff.
    Is Estancia open for lunch?
    You could walk over to Café Noir or Felix in nice weather.

    1. Capsouto Freres is one of my favorite places in Manhattan.

        1. re: il Trifulau

          Haven't been in awhile, but I used to LOVE SohoMade Soup. I would go entirely out of my way to pick it up for dinner. I first fell in love with their cream of mushroom soup (not good for people on diets) in 1999 when I worked on Hudson. Mmm. You can fill up paper bags with fresh croutons for the soup, at no extra charge. They also used to fax the daily specials if you requested. If my information is outdated, someone please correct me.

        2. Pepolino.

          1. my old hood! I used to work on desbrosses, but we just moved to midtown. when I first starting working down there, I had the same query:

            http://www.chowhound.com/topics/203860

            after a couple years, the most solid recs are:

            mooncake foods on watts (killer steak sandwich
            )kiva on hudson
            hudson square cafe on fridays but only if they have the roti specials
            estancia on hudson (ex-sosa borella, good for lunch)
            umanoff and parsons is not lunch but, great wholesale cakes and baked goods
            wichcraft on greenwich
            pao on greenwich
            there is a smoothie/salad place on beach btwn greenwich and hudson (forget the name)
            there is also mai house and viet cafe for fancy pho

            or bust your ass down to chinatown for a whole sea of choices.
