Tavern on Jane
	"If you didn't know Tavern on Jane was there, you'd probably pass it by - and most of the regulars probably wouldn't mind. But once you find it, you'll be glad you did. Quiet, solid, and dependable as a great neighborhood restaurant should be, Tavern on Jane treats solo diners like friends; you'll see at least one or two fellow travelers in the darkish but comfy dining room on any given night. Once settled in, pay close attention to the specials, which are usually winners. The regular menu's alluring too, with updated comfort food like roast chicken with garlic mashed potatoes, mixed green salad with marinated, grilled steak, and pastas. You'll feel comfortable lingering here for a while, so leave room for dessert."       –from 'Table for One: New York'–
