Not too surpris-ingly, that is the question I am most often asked. It is also oneI find difficult to answer, because a single restaurant name isexpected, and I find it almost impossible to make that choice."Favorite restaurant for what?" is all I can counter with. Forthough I think the food prepared by Andr6 Soltner and hisstaff at Lut~ce makes his the best French restaurant in the city,and I feel that French food is the world's best, there are manyinstances when Lut~ce would not be my first choice for dinner. Being a restaurant buff and living in New York, I favor dif-ferent eating places for different moods, dishes, styles and evenprices. If I feel like eating linguine with white clam sauce, ora lusty, fragrant pizza, or a red-hot Korean fish soup, or do notwant to get dressed up or spend $100 a person for dinner, noneof Andr6 Soltner's delectables will suffice. And so this book is a collection of personal favorites invarious categories. That the number totals 154 is a tribute toNew York's culinary diversity and my own reluctance to ex-clude any place I really like, if only for a single dish. This bookis, in fact, a strategy for eating in New York, knowing whereto eat what, in which neighborhood and at what price. To makecomparisons easy for the reader, I have grouped restaurants bythe type of food they serve--American, French, steak and soon. That way it is easy to tell, for example, the basic differencesbetween Lut~ce, La Grenouille, Le Cygne and Le Cirque. Allare top French restaurants, but they provide quite differentdining experiences. If I were entertaining someone who lovedglamorous, gorgeous settings, I would choose La Grenouille orLe Cygne. If it were someone who wanted to dine midst a madsocial whirl, it would be Le Cirque. And if it were someonewho preferred simple, countrified settings in which to appre- ciate magnificent food, it would be Lut~ce. Although some might expect that a book of best and favorite restaurants will include only those that are French, Italian and perhaps Chinese and Japanese, this collection ranges over a much wider variety because I find almost all cuisines enticing, and I would rather have a first-rate Korean meal than a third- rate French alternative. That is why, for example, the Tibetan Kitchen is in this book and La C6te Basque is not. The Tibetan Kitchen does what it promises to do better than La C6te Basque does, especially when one considers the telephone rudeness of the latter toward unknowns making reservations. Not every7
