^ well, there are a few restaurants further west on prince and on spring towards lafayette. balthazar is there (popular, a ny mag critic's pick, good food, nice interior), but it might be a bit too pricey. if no one minds the walk (it's not very far), we could venture over to little italy. plenty of great places to eat there! since we're planning on a big party, we'll have to make reservations too, i assume. let me know if you need any help getting everything organized.
