Harlem Eats

We are renting an apartment in East Harlem and would like to eat at neighborhood resturants. Any suggestions. We love all types of food and are pretty adventuresome.

    Moustache is a solid Middle Eastern place that I love, with bright flavors and excellent food. Be forewarned--they make food fresh, and it's not fast.
    Itzocan Bistro is one block over, and has amazing huitlacoche dishes.

      Try Treichville, on East 118th near First Ave., for a stellar thiebou djeun:

      I'm also partial to the cemita at Cafe Ollin, ten blocks south:

        La Corsa on E 112 St just West of Lex has fabulous Italian food at reasonable prices. Great pizza too.
