Dock's, located at 40th and 3rd, is my favorite breakfast/brunch restaurant in that area. It specializes in seafood, so some of the breakfasts come with smoked salmon. The food is good, and there's never a wait. It's a nice restaurant - not TOO fancy (i.e., you could wear jeans there) but definitely not a dive. They bring you a little basket of muffins and biscuits as soon as you sit down - sounds like you'll need it after the flight!

I love brunch at the Paris Commune in the Village (411 Bleeker St) particularly their salmon eggs benedict.<BR>Here's where you'll find details:<BR>http://newyork.citysearch.com/profile/7117602/

If I were you I'd let the board know exactly where your hotel is. If you will arrive starving I doubt you'll want the hassle of travelling out of your neighborhood, or off your block for that matter -- if I were you I'd go for hotel room service ordered the instant you arrive, or a cheap reliable local diner, and save the special dining for non-starvation occasions.

Randy,<BR><BR>If you are looking for an upscale breakfast restaurant, then Norma's is it! It is in the Le Parker Meridien. It is expensive, but they've elevated breakfast to a dining experience. This is only a few blocks from the Plaza. You will need to get there early though, maybe @8:00AM. Later on the wait getsw to be an hour or so and people start getting cranky.<BR><BR>JG

Suzanne-Will keep Docks in mind,it would help if my girlfriend liked seafood!....Elizabeth,our hotel is out at JFK,and as a Delta employee plan to try standby to JFK but will probably fly into LGA...Will need to store the bags with a big hotel-or Grand Central station,if they'll let me.

GCT no longer has luggage lockers or any bag check service. If you go to the Grand Hyatt (directly next to GCT) and tip the bellhop they should store your bags for you.

Board the M60 bus and keep your eyes open on Broadway for &quot;Toms Restaurant&quot; on your left. You'll recognize it from &quot;Seinfield&quot;.<BR><BR>I really don't know anything about the place, but I do see a LOT of places while riding the bus, including the above. For breakfast, I'm usually only looking for &quot;diner&quot; food anyway.
