Thanksgiving dinner in New York City

Last year, November 2006, I was on my way from Lexington, Kentucky to New York City to spend my Thanksgiving holiday.  New York is one of my favorite cities in North America.  There is so much to do regardless of your taste for entertainment.  While we took advantage of our time in NYC to visit the city and go to the ballet (Nutcracker), one of the highlights of the trip was Thanksgiving dinner at Town, featured in an issue of Town & Country.  If you enjoy a gourmet dining experience where the food is actually delicious, I highly recommend a visit to Town.  The modern ambiance only adds to the dining experience, even if you are not a “modern” person.  The cuisine is American and artful without being weird.  To be honest, I can not remember exactly what I had, except I thought I had died and was in heaven.  One word of caution, the restaurant is hard to find.  We were staying at the Affina 50, 3rd and 50th, and Town is located at 56th, between 5th and 6th.  In other words, we were close, but if you do not know exactly where to go (The Chambers Hotel), Town can be hard to find.  The experience is worth it.  If you are in NYC for Thanksgiving or some other town and you enjoy fine dining.  I recommend Town.
