Thanks for this list- While eating brunch at New Leaf this weekend I commented that, when dining out, I’d like to make more of an effort to eat at restaurants that offer organic and local. New Leaf cafe feels like a weekend retreat- nestled in the Cloisters, it’s like a mountain getaway without leaving Manhattan. http://www.nyrp.org/newleaf/
Meals include fresh, organic and local ingredients. It is also the pick up point for the Washington Height’s CSA.
Nina,
Thanks for the tip!
