Help! I need an idea for a restaurant in Manhattan Saturday to take my wife and daughters for a genuine, tourist-free, New York dining experience. Any idea? Thanks in advance...

Oh my god- almost forgot- *this is where me and mum take our friends from out of town- fabulous, go for dinner (late enough that there's a crowd, early enough that you can get a table, 8:00 ish): http://www.milonny.com/
Can you recommend some good Bengali/East Indian restaurants in NYC? I know most of the Indian restaurants have either North or South Indian food... any east Indian?

I love [Milon](http://www.milonny.com/), and not just because it's my birthday every time I go there. Can't beat the atmosphere. [Amma](http://www.ammanyc.com/) is good delivery in Midtown and great lunch specials. If you're venturing into Queens, [Jackson Diner](http://jacksondiner.com/) is a good staple, but right around the corner is [Khaabar Baari](http://www.yelp.com/biz/khaabar-baari-restaurant-queens) - which is the most authentic Bangladeshi food I've come across outside of my own kitchen.
