Restaurant de cuisine américaine moderne · Lower East Side · 97 conseils et avis
Wilson Zhou: Sometimes Contra's food is visually precise. Slivers of white squid with black ink puree and yuzukosho greens would fit right in at the two Michelin-starred Aquavit. ★★★

Wilson Zhou: The "Variety Burger" is a medium-rare patty made from a coarse grind of brisket, chuck, heart, and liver. It's served with sweet potato wedge fries (heresy!) and without a bun (hiss!). ★★★
47 E 12th St (btwn University Pl and Broadway), New York, NY
Restaurant japonais · Greenwich Village · 52 conseils et avis
Wilson Zhou: Shuko often only serves about two pieces of the meaty delicacy as part of the menu, which Kim grills over the binchotan and places in a hammock of nori. The texture is pure foie gras. ★★★
35 E 21st St (btwn Broadway & Park Ave S), New York, NY
Restaurant mexicain · Flatiron District · 278 conseils et avis
Wilson Zhou: Olvera brings out just the opposite, a corn mousse with a vegetal sting. Only a sugary husk meringue on top provides the sweet relief this brilliant dish needs. Call it a Mexican pavlova. ★★★
Restaurant coréen · Flatiron District · 72 conseils et avis
Wilson Zhou: A slickly designed restaurant split into bench-tables up front and cushier booths in the back and a standing table that bisects the space, one of the city’s most exhilarating places to eat beef. ★★★
Restaurant britannique · NoMad · 61 conseils et avis

Restaurant scandinave · Williamsburg · 27 conseils et avis
Wilson Zhou: The bi-level space, a restored 1860s warehouse and garden, gives the 37-year-old Berselius a chance to prove to New York that he deserves to be taken as seriously as the city's best chefs.”★★★★
