On Boy Meets Grill, Bobby drops by H&H bagels, or what he calls the "undisputed king of bagels." Here, the dough is boiled and then baked, creating a chewy inside balanced by a tasty crust on the outside. You’ll find plenty of options, from pumpernickel and poppy seed to blueberry and bialy.
On Boy Meets Grill, Bobby heads to Han Ah Reum for "everything Korean." Located in the heart of Koreatown, Han Ah Reum carries a variety of Korean produce and supplies. That includes more than your typical assortment of soy sauces, kimchi, peppers, salted shrimp and noodles.
Bobby's trip to Kum Gang San was a Boy Meets Grill first because this is where you can grill Korean barbecue at the table. Be it thinly sliced boneless rib-eye steak (Bul Go Ki) or jumbo shrimp (Sae Woo Gui), Bobby says, "It's about sharing and it's just fun."
With decor as elegant as the menu, Ouest has redefined upscale comfort food and New American cuisine. On Boy Meets Grill, Bobby calls Chef Tom Valenti "King of the Lamb Shanks" and critics agree. Try for yourself with Valenti's succulent Roasted Lamb Chop with Mustard Crusted Braised Lamb Neck.
Bobby's love of naan brings him to Tamarind Tribeca. Although Tamarind is known for naan (baked in a beautiful clay oven), they excel in modern Indian cuisine with bold flavors. Regulars swear by the Tamarind Scallops pan-seared in an earthy blend of garam masala and turmeric.
Although Olives serves fine plates of hanger steak and tuna tartare, it is also a master of broccoli. When Cat Cora stays at the W Hotel, she always orders room service for the spicy roasted broccoli salad, made of an aromatic mixture of caramelized broccoli with fresh garlic and peppers.
This spot may be home to the Chicken Churrasco (a grilled chicken breast sandwich), but both Bobby Flay and Michael Symon head here for the burgers. Choose from more than 60 options, including the extra-fiery Napalm burger, which packs a punch with its combo of spices, habanero sauce and jalapenos.

Bobby visited The International Culinary Center not only to revisit his alma mater, but also to visit the school's restaurant, L'Ecole. The Michelin-rated restaurant offers a rotating menu of seasonal dishes such as ginger-glazed mahi mahi or housemade spinach fettuccine, all prepared by students.
Bobby's love of seafood takes him straight to the experts. Located right in the famed Grand Central Terminal, this market has become synonymous with gourmet, artisanal eats. Stop by for fresh shellfish, mussels, or a variety of fresh produce and prepared salads.

BONDST’s sleek interior and decadent sashimi and sushi menu offer the perfect complement to the “addictive” sake cocktails. So says Bobby, who loves BONDST’s dry saketini (a mix of sake and vodka). He adds that it’s “crisp and clean and cuts across bold flavors.”
If the decor doesn't evoke memories of yesteryear, maybe the signature Icebox Cake with whipped cream and chocolate wafer cookies will. Or, like Bobby on Boy Meets Grill, snag a vanilla cupcake after buying a pecan pie. Who could blame you? Billy's has become one of New York's sweetest sensations.
Those with a passion for foods from Sicily head to the aisles of Agata & Valentina. On Boy Meets Grill, Bobby stopped by this specialty grocery and filled his basket with the best feta, lamb chops, pork tenderloins and prosciutto to make “little plates of food with big bursts of flavor.”
For his "cooking with wine" dinner, Bobby swings by Appellation Wine and Spirits. Appellation can pair your flank steak with the perfect Cabernet and help you find the right Chilean wine for your sea bass. With a Wine of The Month club and private tastings, you'll be sure to find the right wine.
