Thanksgiving Dinner Buffets?
I don’t know about buffets, but you might want to think about Fraunces Tavern. The food is supposed to be good, and it’s American food in an old federal era tavern that has just recently been renovated.

Mid Town Eats
I’m not a fan of Les Halles, which, in my view, is living on its past Bourdain connection. Mediocre food, poor service, sardine-tight seating, and an insanely high noise level. Fraunces Tavern? Hardly hip and not exactly...

Lunch on Whitehall Street, please
Second Smorgas Chef, especially for a lighter meal. Waterstone on the same block for seafood. You’ll also be a block away from Fraunces Tavern, if you want to do the historical thing.
