City's Best

663 9th Ave
New York, NY 10036

The New Age atmosphere at this sleek, serene vegetarian gourmet shop/restaurant is a welcome respite from the hustle-and-bustle of the city. Begin with starters such as spinach won ton soup, taro spring rolls, steamed vegetable dumplings and basil moo shu rolls. Entres have such exotic names as "Confetti-Land" (grilled wild mushrooms with new potatoes with mixed peppers, caramelized onions and fresh basil leaves) and "Jewel of Happiness" (minimushroom steaks atop a bed of mashed sweet yams with Szechuan garlic sauce). The noodle and rice dishes are exemplary, and the nondairy banana pie tastes surprisingly rich. Also located at 34 E. Union Square, 212-614-9345, and 2170 Broadway, 212-501-7768.

    perhaps it contained one
    mushroom and a minimal

    We went soon after it opened; it may have changed: I left hungry, the prices were too high, given the fare, and the setting and tableware were gorgeous, but so what?
    Since then there's long been a Zen Palate on Broadway between 77th Street: good tho crowded.
