If you want to sit and sip an alcoholic beverage in an elegant setting,
Petrie Court Café and Wine Bar is for you. Located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art with Central Park as a backdrop, this European-style restaurant by day serves lunch, Sunday brunch and afternoon tea, and by night transforms into a swank wine bar. It is on Fifth Ave. at 82nd St. And of course there's
Tavern On The Green. This restaurant is one of New York's iconic dining spots, attracting thousands of diners every year, and it has also been known as the place to be seen in New York City.
