Tavern on the Green Reservations
If they are going to the Tavern they should make reservations NOW
BUT
There are so many other places to spend money on food and still have an adventure.
The Central Park Boathouse for example. TRE romantic, less so in the winter but ooh la la le ambiance, the food, the scene .... !
If they want the New York dining experience they should try
the Union Square Cafe superb, and I do mean
superb, food in an elegant, yet casual, atmosphere. Look around you, is that Michael Caine? Is that .... oh never mind.. the place is crawling with faces.
Closer to their hotel is an A2K favorite : Pierre du Tunnel

a favorite of mine, GO AFTER eight PM, you miss the theatre crowd and enjoy the food. Ask for a table next to the wall and you will see everything while you gaze at your table companion......
Oh yes...... Macey's 34th and Broadway has both trainers and the Sean Jean suits (urp).....
Re: Kicky's Empire State Idea;;;;; First, go down to the Staten Island about dusk and take it across to Staten Island (where else?) then take the ferry back just after dark (about 5:15pm) ,,,,,, The city lights are on, the Statue of Liberty is to your left and the Brooklyn Bridge shines like a National Guitar on the East River just to your right. ( I told you to get a place in the front of the ferry, right>>?) What a view.
THEN take the 1 or the 9 train up to 34th Street and walk over to the Empire State. If it's a clear night the two views, one from the river and one from the top of the ES will never leave your mind or your heart..
I hope they have a fabulous time.
