it looks fine.
i dont know hampton chutney company but if it's indian. Devi is also a good choice.

HCC uses South Indian dosa as a base, but gets creative with fillings. Things like goat cheese and grilled vegetables.

I think old homestead is the weakest of your 3 steakhouses. i would maybe put an italian or asian place in there. i like babbo for italian, but i dont think it's really authentic. but its pretty tasty.

I just ate at Scalini Fedeli last week and it was fantastic. More traditional than Babbo, but every bit as good.

My dad is Indian and I grew up eating Indian food. I think Bukhara Grill is the best Indian food in New York. When I took my dad there he told me he has never had better Indian food in the US. If you want something a bit more upscale Tamarind 22 is good too, but less authentic.

The Gramercy Tavern is probably my favorite restaurant in New York. Veritas and Union Square Café are also high on my list.

For seafood Le Bernardin

Clinton St. is my favorite breakfast place. They are famous for their pancakes and it is justified.

I ate at Nougatine (Jean Georges more casual dining room) last weekend. I tried the tasting menu and it was excellent.

I am a huge fan of Dhaba. Very good northern Indian - I've eaten ther 8 or 9 times over the last year and every meal has been a winner.

Keens is a wonderful old steakhouse. The food is very good and for a pure New York experience I'd put it ahead of the other steakhouses on your list.

Katz's is the consensus favorite for best pastrami in the city. There are other worthy contenders (Sarge's, 2nd Ave. deli) but if you've only got time to try one, Katz's is it.

Not much Asian there? I like both Szechuan Gourmet and Lan Sheng which are neighbours just S of Bryant Park. if you like spicy food there is plenty to love in either.

[rrems]

Are you looking for authentic Indian or would you like to try Indian/New American fusion? I really love Tabla for a mix of traditional and modern. You don't have any Italian on your list yet. I recommend Convivio, SD26, Scarpetta, Lupa. EMP and JG are great, I personally prefer EMP. Maybe consider one moderate place like Alegretti, Cru or Marseille. Another idea is Aldea, a modern interpretation of Portuguese.

What is your budget?
