I might be older than you on this one so Im still a fan of busta and LL. At least their old stuff. LL last album sucked. Never been a total fan of Nas, and I should of put Jay z up there. 2pac....your right about him too. But hey we agreed on 2 out of 5.

By the way AutoCouture asked above "who are the 5 greatest rappers" No one answered so I took the liberty to answer his question.

LL was part of 90's as well. Ok enough about rappers. Lets help this guy decide where he is taking his honey out for dinner on Christmas. Dude we all gave you advice. Now make a decision and then after Christmas tell is where you took her so we can have bragging rights. LOL

It is late to try and get a rez, but you can also try Babbo or Esca.

If in little italy, Sal Anthony's, La Mela or Puglias but those are not so romantic

have a great holiday

The more I think about it the more I think this guy should take her to vermont and go skiing with her and rent a nice cabin. Have the food catered in.

Once i gave peter lugers $100 tip (between 4 people) that was by accident.... lol

try Keen's (on 36th st and 6th ave) price is a little cheaper, My manager just treated our team there for lunch, dark place with lots of pipes hanging haha...

I like this place on Washington and Christopher called Malatesta Trattoria http://nymag.com/listings/restaurant...sta-trattoria/ they generally don't take reservations for less than 4 people, but maybe being a holiday there will be exceptions. The food is excellent and its a great atmosphere in there.

With Italians being Catholic and all (as am I), I can understand why they arent open late on the 24th...but there has to be a couple of spots open to 11 or so...anyone have an opinion? Ive already bumbed through Zagat and Google, but the returns are absurd and I cant get any decent freakin review to make it worth checking out....

I would rather not have to, but I've been to Peter Lugers and Ruth's Chris, but it just doesnt seem to fit the bill for the occaision...but if push comes to shove I can always fall back on one or the other.

Forget about Peter Lugers, mortons, ruth chris etc...over rated imho. If you wind up doing steak go to either Smith and Wolensky (my absolute favorite steak house I promise you will be blown away) or Sparks Steak both are incredible and much better than Mortons which in my opinion is crap as is ruth chris...and peter luger is not what it used to be.

Italian food...I don't know the hours on xmas eve but the best italian in little italy is: Da Nico on mulberry...and since it is xmas eve after dinner I would reco walking to Ferraras Pasticerie Shoppe down the block and having some pasteries and bringing some home for xmas day for the family.. a definite treat.

Hope this helps...merry xmas
