I was actually really pleasantly surprised when I tried Ethiopian food over break (and I'm a fairly picky eater). I also love Indian.

I forgot Gnocci with Gorgonzola and walnut sauce. Malatesta Trattoria in the West Village in NYC does it beautifully.

***I've heard great things about Ethiopian (esp. the injera (sp?) bread). Have yet to try it.

The injera bread is really good, Love4Cheno. The spongy texture took me a little bit to get used to, but the food that comes on it is delicious.

Planet Thailand in Brooklyn. It's a fusion restaurant in an old converted warehouse. Very very cool. One of my favorite places! :)

In addition to my general love of Italian food, I highly recommend SuRa (a Korean restaurant in the East Village) - excellent bibimbob, seafood pajon, kimchi stew, all the good stuff.

I love anything Asian.
1. Japanese- Sushi Favorite(Nobu)(Miyako the one I can afford daily) (City Crab makes excellent Spicy Shrimp rolls)

2. Chinese- (Shun Lee)(The Cottage Union Square, The one I can afford daily)
3. Korean (Korean Palace)
4. Thai (So many)
5. Vietnamese (Saigon Grill)
If I could eat these each and every meal I would.

Even my salads are Asian style:
Ginger dressing. Snowpeas. Waterchestnuts. Grilled shrimp.
YUM.

Indian food is my favorite, hands down. Lamb, chicken, shrimp...anything cooked in the tandoor and I'll eat it. And I love the vegetarian dishes like eggplant and spinach. I refuse to eat those veggies any other way. Yum.
