McCain? Obama? We prefer Kenny Shopsin. That's why we voted Shopsin's as the best comfort food spot in 2008. Don't worry voters, your voice was heard too: Veritas for Best Wine List, Blue Smoke for Best BBQ, Nice Green Bo for Best Chinese Food. Yes, we know, you have great taste. Check out all of our Best of Citysearch results, plus our picks for the top restaurants in New York.

It's that time of year again--time for you to help us choose New York's best restaurants in more than 20 different categories like outdoor dining, people-watching, comfort food and brunch. By now you know the drill, but just in case, here's the deal: We chose the nominees, and you can vote once per day in each category for your favorites. Voting will continue through Thursday, September 11, and the winners will be announced the following Friday, September 19, with two winners in each category (one selected by you, one selected by us). So, better get cracking--and be sure to check out past winners in all our other Best of Citysearch polls. 

Grub Street kicked off the whole prostitutes at Gordon Ramsay's restaurant thing last month, which got me thinking: What if you're a money-hungry hottie who's looking to procure a more durable source of income without resorting to illegal means? In short: Would Gordon Ramsay at the London be popular with golddiggers?

Because I don't really have any experience on either end of the golddigging transaction, I'm gonna leave it up to you, dear readers. Where do you send that one special friend of yours whose got that inexplicable thing for Daddy Warbucks? Vote on the best golddiggers goldmine and many other, more practical categories (Best First Date Spot, Budget Date Spot) in our just-launched set of new polls: Best of Citysearch: Dating and Mating.
