      <content>IMHO New York = Deli, Deli = Katz's Deli,  downtown on Houston St. 
Pastrami, Corned beef and Brisket are the things to eat, get a Potato Knishe on the side, enjoy the Half Sour pickles. Tip the meat cutter a buck or two when you order and you'll see its worth it.
Have a great trip.</content>

      <content>Katz's Pastrami is definitely a contender...

I'll add the following:

New York Steakhouses.....Peter Luger is my choice
Pizza
Bagels
Italian
Cheesecake
Coney Island Fries and Hot Dogs...Nathan's</content>
