Spots that I'm lusting after...

As an avid online reader of New York Magazine, Time Out NY, Zagat, and chow.com, I've began compiling a list of restaurants/bakeries/take-away shops, etc. that I'm eager to try based on what I've read.

Once I've tried an establishment below, I will remove it from this list and write a review based on my experience.
