Buddakan

BuddakanAnother Meatpacking staple, this giant, high-ceilinged oasis offers an extensive menu of Asian dishes and cocktails. Dining here is an experience in itself: descend a staircase into a cavernous room where the chandeliers dwarf the tables below them and golden booths line the wood-panelled walls, get yourself used to the staged dream-like atmosphere, and tuck into some oxtail dumplings and Cantonese steamed sole. Definitely recommended as a place to visit after, or you won't have any energy left for the Whitney itself!
