Just about anything you want. What do you like? Where will you stay?

Of note - the Christmas tree lighting at Rockefeller Center is
scheduled for Wednesday, November 28:

Airport to hotel service, any tips?


Just announced: in September, the taxi fare from JFK to Manhattan will
go up by $7, to US$52.

There are other options, depending on your airport and hotel.

There are alternatives to cabs into the city.
http://www.goairlinkshuttle.com/ offers shared van rides from all airports
for considerably less.
There is regular bus service for JFK and LGA, too:

This site gives you the options from Newark Airport:

This presumes you'll be staying in Manhattan. If you'll be in another
borough your hotel's
website should have information on airport transportation.

I agree with Joe - why don't you post your own list and let the New Yorkers
have fun with it?
Also, if you have access to New York magazine the current issue has the
annual list of cheap eats in the city.
Something on the list sure to appeal to you.
