In a season that's brought us The Russian Tea Room, Danube and Sono, it's refreshingto return to a modern American menu, crisply executed and presented with visual flair. It's ready for prime time and none of those other places knowthe thrill of Grand Central reborn .

If you can't get a seat at noon, head back to this popular midtown spot for dinner. You can watch the Metro North set scurry to make their trains while you sip your merlot...feeling smug you don't have to make the daily commute.

Pershing Square is a pleasing sigh of a fit. No wonder the neighborhood has embraced it more quickly than David Letterman's recovery. It is exactly where it belongs.
