Veniero’s
Veniero is always busy. When we got there at 10:30, the line is already in place, not as far back as to the door, but it’s a good half hour wait. Their cheesecake is sublime, creamily solid yet not too sweet.
Long ago, there was another good place for cheesecake, Elaine’s. We found it in an charming Italian restaurant near NYU. The restaurant has since closed. Not sure Elaine’s is still in existence.
