1 Fifth Ave., at 8th St.; 212-995-9559
No one pushes the seasonal-gelato envelope like pastry chef Meredith Kurtzman, as evidenced by her sweet-corn gelato with blueberry compote, nectarine sorbetto, and polenta cake.
2. P*ONG

4. Klee Brasserie
200 Ninth Ave., nr. 22nd St.; 212-633-8033
You’ve got to love a chef who gives a vegetable top billing over not one but two expensive proteins, as in the Long Island corn with king salmon and soft-shell crab.
