What to eat: Pretty self explanatory. The avocado craze continues in Manhattan, with the new Avocado Appétit Cafe. The cafe offers brunch options including smoothies, salads and, of course, avocado toast. The restaurant even offers a coffee avocado smoothie, according to Eater, made with an espresso shot, avocado, condensed milk and chocolate syrup. Beer and wine are also available.
Where: 23 Lexington Ave., Gramercy
What to eat: Seafood and related dishes. The new restaurant opened inside the Freehand Hotel on Friday as the latest restaurant from the Happy Cooking hospitality group. Simon & the Whale gets its name from owner Gabriel Stulman’s son, Simon, and his affinity for whale-themed toys, according to the New York Times.
Where: Chelsea Market, 435 W. 15th St.
What to eat: This popular pita shop first opened in Tel Aviv in 2011, before spreading to cities around the world. The new Miznon location in Chelsea Market is the first in the international brand to open in the U.S., and offers original takes on classic pita dishes. The pita shop is already so popular that hour-long lines have been waiting for the dish, according to social media users and Eater. You can see the full menu here.
No pita would be complete without a hot green pepper for a companion! This Wild Forest pita is dressed in a light coat of sour cream, stuffed with fresh portobellos, shiitakes + scallions and sprinkled with salt & black pepper #miznonnyc

What to eat: Your daily dose of greens, plus lots of other options. Tender Greens opened in February, and is the chain's first location in NYC. The restaurant is the latest fast-casual option from restaurateur Danny Meyer, of Shake Shack fame. Check out the menu here.
From the Maine harbor to our plates, it took work, care and love to make this Lobster salad happen. Swipe right to see. @lukeslobster handpicks the lobster directly from the lobstermen at the dock, then cleans, and preserves them for freshness for partners like us. We're stoked to serve it at our NYC restaurant. Try it tomorrow when we officially open! #TGhelloNY #unionsquarenyc
