Whether you're in the market for a special dining experience or simply hate the pressure that comes with picking a plate, we say to opt for a tasting menu. Not only does the chef do all the decision-making for you, but also, let's be real, a procession of small plates has the power to make anyone feel like a fancy foodie, replete with discussions of "flavor profiles" and "mouthfeels."
It may sound like a pretentious fuss reserved for rich people - and a lot of the time, it kinda is. But at these New York hot spots, the indulgent offerings are delicious, approachable, and most importantly, affordable. Click through for some quality tasting menus that start at under $100. Go on, be bougie - without breaking the bank.
