Give like you’ve never given before.

I have been hearing so many raves about the sweetbreads at Babbo, I have to ask, what do they taste like? I’m a pretty adventurous eater, but deal breakers for me tend to be texture. I don’t like food with fat on it,...

We are looking for awesome food, relatively quiet but not stuff in the Wash Sq area. Of course, Babbo was totally full...any one have other ideas?

Hey everyone, Is Batali hanging out at Babbo at all these days or is he working at Del Posto every night. I finally got a Babbo reservation for next month and I was wondering if there was any chance of a sighting. Thanks in...

Have show tickets for Billy Elliot on Friday, 6.19, don’t know if I should try and squeeze in dinner at Babbo, don’t want to rush an amazing dinner, or if I should take the last lunch at Felidia, and take our time....

No, you should be just fine. I’ve never felt rushed when dining at Babbo. www.thelunchbelle.com

I have a very expensive, 1982 wine that I wanted to take to Babbo. Would they let you bring in your own if it’s a good wine?

I was going to go to Falai for my one night in NY in August. But, since reading this board I am now thinking I should go to Babbo. Is one better than the other? Also, I wanted to check out the Spotted Pig. Would that be a fun...

To me it is all a question of budget. If I want a special dinner I choose Babbo, if a simpler, more casual one, Lupa. Interestingly, some dishes are about the same price at both, but I tend to order more courses at Babbo. Still,...

Which would you recommend ? We were able to get reservations at Babbo at 11:00 pm, Crispo is available at a reasonable time.If it is really worth it we will eat late but would rather not.
