    St James Gate has pretty good pub food, if you're in the mood for that kind of thing. It's on 81 and Amsterdam. Since it's chilly out, you may find yourself craving a nice stew or pot pie or something. And a guinness too, of course.

      Land is great for Thai food. It's tiny, though.

      Or you could try Fred's for a cozy neighborhood spot.

      Both are on Amsterdam in the mid 80s.

        love freds and cilantro isn't bad. small h is right, lots of people will be eating uws. if you can get a reservation that would be great. land is yummy but tiny and doesn't take reservations.

        Make a reservation, whatever you decide. A lot of people will be on the same quest.
