Top 5 places to eat in NYC...by Alec Baldwin

This is in honor of my new found love for 30 Rock. I have enjoyed Alec since I started watching the show and after reading Bossypants. If you want to go to the original site where I read this article just click on his picture.
Always-Good-Never-Had-A-Bad-Meal
Nougatine (One Central Park West) – “The food, the room, the music. All relaxing and very good.”
Rice and Beans and Sweet Plantains
La Caridad (588 Amsterdam Ave.) – “A countertop joint on the Upper Westside. When you want to…you know….eat.”
Place To Watch Interesting People While Eating Food That Is Actually Good
Via Quadronno (25 E. 73rd St.) – “Get the Tuna Affumicato and arugula salad. Also, the best vegetable puree soup in NY.”
Place To Blow It Out for a Ridiculously High Calorie Meal
Barney Greengrass (541 Amsterdam Ave.) – “Mushroom onion omelette, nova platter, bialy, veggie cream cheese, cream soda. Then take a nap. Then run 12 miles.”
Pizza
Serafina (1022 Madison Ave.) – “Believe it or not, the pizza at Serafina on Madison and 79th is excellent.”
Bonus
“Sushi at Kanoyama at Second Avenue and East 11th Street. The frozen yogurt with berries at Cafe Lalo is still the best in NY. Place to eat healthy while thinking unhealthy thoughts: dine on anything at Pure Food and Wine and stare at Sarma Melngailis all night. Still great after all these years? The atmosphere at Cafe Luxembourg.”
