Favorite places to eat in New York...

I stayed up all night watching youtube videos of people cooking.  One of my biggest fears about leaving New York is that I am pretty sure I won't be able to find the kind of culinary scene anywhere.  After years of trying restaurants and recipes that are more haute cuisine, I decided recently that my favorites have always been home cooking and street food.  Before I forget I am going to list all the places I will miss...  not in any particular order.

Nicky's Vietnamese Sandwich

Caracas Arepas

Grey's Papaya hot dogs

Hop Kee

Baby Buddha

Sripraphai

Terrallucci e vino

Natori

Panya - gone already...

Taisho yakitori

Rai Rai Ken

Cafe Habana

Nha Trang

Paprika

Uminoie

Kasadela

Corner Bistro

Cafe Pick Me Up

Mudd Cafe

Dean and Deluca Cafe

Amy's Bread

Momofuko Noodle Bar (okay, not exactly cheap, but has the casual atmosphere of an unassuming eatery, except of course the chef is David Chang)

That's all I can think of now, but I'm sure I will think of some more.  I wish I had explored the city more.  Even after living here for so long I seem to lead a pretty provincial life never getting out of my own neighborhood in Manhattan.  I guess that's typical of many Manhattanites...
