My company is taking me to a farewell lunch on Friday. I can go wherever I want! Here are the catches:
1. It can't be a place like per se, because we'd never get a reservation in 3 days.
2. I'm a vegetarian -- I eat no meat or seafood (I do eat eggs & dairy)
3. I work in Midtown West, so the restaurant should be reasonably close (say, betw 5th & 10th ave, 35th and 70th St), but I'd make exceptions.
My favorite cuisines are Mexican, Italian, Indian, and "New American," though I'm willing to try anything. The budget is basically unlimited. I've been to Rosa Mexicano, Utsav, Bombay Palace, and Remi.
I've ruled out the usuals -- Peter Lugar, Le Bernadin, Aquavit, Esca, Jean Georges, L'Impero (because it's far), etc. (unless someone can assure me one of these has very good vegetarian lunches)
I could fallback on the Ritz/Waldorf, but prefer not to. Suggestions? They're bugging me to pick a place (I suggested cheap mexican w/ margaritas but they want to go fancy)
