Bobby loves this authentic taco spot, located beneath the Food Network studios in Chelsea Market. Tucked inside is Los Tacos No. 1, a small shop that churns out nearly 2,000 tacos per day to hungry tourists. Their tortillas are made fresh in house, and each meat filling choice is made with high-quality ingredients. Their sister restaurant Los Mariscos sits just next door, churning out seafood for your second course.

Tucked inside Chelsea Market is this small gelato stand—but don’t let the size deter you, they don’t skimp on flavor. This is Bobby’s favorite gelato shop in all of New York because they serve gelato the way they do in Sicily: scooped on a buttery brioche bun. Choose from classic flavors like stracciatella and pistachio, or go for one of the seasonal flavors, like pumpkin.

This classic brasserie is a popular spot for both locals and tourists. Bobby and Sophie stop in for a coffee and pastry on their way to try the city's best lobster rolls.

You might recognize chef-owner Ed McFarland as an occasional judge on Beat Bobby Flay, but at this seafood joint, he’s setting the rules. Stepping through the door is like being transported to Nantucket: not only do the bright interiors feel beachy, but the menu is packed with New England favorites like lobster rolls and raw oysters.
