North End Grill: If you’re craving an escape from the clutter and calories of the typical fast-food stops that have monopolized civilization, North End Grill is the answer. The establishment offers a posh twist on casual dining for locals in Battery Park City, especially for those pushing the pavement, looking for a relaxing escape that can be compressed into a lunch break. This upscale American grill features fab renditions on bar fare from Chef Floyd Cardoz, winner of Bravo’s Top Chef Masters Season 3, like a bacon-shrimp burger with spice-infused fries ($18). Sure, you might not usually grab a dessert on your lunch break, but their seductive butterscotch pot de crème in chocolate streusel ($8) will change your mind…forever. The sleek, modern décor and raised ceilings add just enough sparkle without detracting from the good eats. And, for any self-proclaimed liquor aficionados, prepare to pick your poison with their extensive scotch collection, featuring over 99 varieties (maybe save ‘em for after-hours, hmm?). While typically enticing for an older crowd, if you’re in the mood to treat yourself to a delicious change of pace come lunch or after-work, this is exactly the place you should, er, end up.
