OK then, although I think aduchamp should start since his/her list of places to eat is always so great, but I'll put in my 2 cents:
Hot dog from Grey's Papaya
Pastrami sandwich at Katz'
(And some dear departed - blintzes at Ratner's, cheesecake at Lindy's)

ekscrunchy - last week I MADE a Bo SSam (which I agree with you, is a truly GREAT dish). David Chang was on Martha Stewart and gave the recipe, which you can see on her site. It is SOOOO easy - I really recommend trying it. I went up to the Korean supermarket Han Ah Reum on 32nd Street and bought lots of kimchee, pickles, hijiki and bbq tofu, along with some lettuce for wraps - we had a feast. It was almost as good as Momofuku - and about $170 cheaper!

Ray's Pizza (they're everywhere)
a reuben on a knish (or a regular one on rye) at Carnegie Deli (and part of the fun is watching the tourists gasp when the gargantuan portions are served)
FYI, when we order a sandwich at Carnegie Deli we pay for extra bread and split the sandwich ... AND STILL LEAVE OVER SOME OF THE MEAT

Stilton and sauternes fondue with sliced green apple at Artisianal.
And -- I haven't been there in ages -- but at one time the linguini and white clam sauce at Umberto's was about as good as you can get.

MP: Thanks for that tip. I will make a plan to do a bo ssam someday soon.
I went with out-of-town friends to Carnegie Deli last week. I ordered corned beef sandwich. I could eat only about a quarter of it, so got a stack of extra rye bread, put the bread in freezer, and have had a tiny sandwich every day for almost an entire week from the remaining 3/4 of leftover meat! All from one sandwich.
Also bought a quart of their chicken stock (ridiculous price) and froze that in ice cube trays.
Here are 2 more great things to eat:
Wonton (chicken) noodle soup, Viet style, from New Chiu Chow at 111 Mott Street (bet. Canal and Hester) About $3.
Roast pork (boneless) from Big WingWong on Mott Street (there are a few Wing Wongs; I go to the one north of Canal at 102 Mott; specialty is Cantonese roast meats)

We like the one called Big Wong on Mott. (They do not have a wing.) Their spicy chow fun is wonderful.
