What is the Gilt Restaurant at the New York Palace Hotel like?

Q. I am going to NYC in 2 weeks for my birthday and as a big fan of Gossip Girl, I want to go see the New York Palace Hotel and hopefully dine there. I looked up their Gilt Restaurant. I expect it to be expensive but how much? And the menu online only list a pre-fixed course menu. Is that all they offer or can I expect a wider variety of choices?

A. Hello & Happy Birthday!

GILT is a 2 Star Michelin rated restaurant. Chef's 3, 5, and 7 course pre-fixe and tasting menus highlight the Modern American cuisine, which is centered around seasonal offerings. The various menus range in price from $89 and up, however there is currently a pre-theatre dining option offered for 5:30pm and 6pm seatings that are completed by 7:30pm for $68 dollars per person. Alternatively many fans of the show choose to dine & visit GILT Bar, as memorable scenes between Serena and Blair were filmed on location and there are a variety of items on the GILT Bar menu such as Truffle Fries, seasonal flat bread pizzas, scallops, ceviche, etc. as well as an impressive house-made cocktail list and wine by the glass menu. When you arrive at The New York Palace you will recognize many scene locations, from the Courtyard to the Grand Lobby Staircase to GILT.

I am travelling to Malta and would like to know how to get to Qawra palace hotel from the airport?
Q. My flight lands at 3:40 pm. What is the best and cheapest way to get to Qawra Palace hotel? Are taxis in Malta safe?

A. Catch the bus from the airport (number 8) and it will take you to the bus terminus in Valletta. From there, catch bus number 49 and it will take you to Qawra and stop at the bus terminus. Then ask around for directions for the hotel, but it isn't far away. You can even ask for a taxi but it's useless money, but if you're arriving at night, that's your only choice.
Bus tickets cost 47c to Valletta and 54c to Qawra. But there will be an extra charge of about 1euro charge for the luggage.

what is the imperial palace hotel located in las vegas?
Q. is the imperial palace hotel located anywhere near the
monorail system? if not, is it located centrally where you
would not need taxis or monorail? thank you.

A. I stayed at IP November '07. It's at a great location on the strip. Central location and good room rates. I do agree with the other answer that you should pay the extra money and upgrade to the tower or deluxe room. The difference in decor and size is worth it. The great thing about IP is that its room rate is cheaper than most, so with the upgrade, your still getting a good price. I don't remember the monorail system because we walked everywhere, but it probably is near. It was great.

Also, the casino's decor is dated, but you probably won't spend all your time in that casino.
