What restaurants have floor seating where you sit on the ground and eat? I really want to go to one.
I know of two such restaurants. I've been to each of them and recommend them based on the traditional criteria of food/decor/service/value. Coincidentally, both of them are Asian and vegetarian. Both are in Manhattan. Vatan, 409 Third Avenue (at 29th Street). Indian. All you can eat. Seating is not exactly on the floor -- it's on a raised platform, about 20 inches off the ground. There's no place to dangle your legs, so you have to keep them on the platform with the rest of you -- in that respect, it's just like sitting on the floor. HanGawi, 12 East 32nd Street (between Fifth & Madison Avenues). Korean. Seating is on the floor, but there's a well that you can dangle your legs into. You'll need to check your shoes at the entrance, so wear nice socks. Finally, disregard the answer about a Cambodian restaurant at McMillan and Taft -- there are no such streets anywhere in New York City.
omg! you're looking for the same thing that I looked for for three months after I moved to NYC from Boston. I found it. It's a nice, charming little Cambodian joint called Tey-Bahk It means good eating. It's on McMillan and Taft in a brown building. I hope I've helped. Also look at the reviews on Yelp. They're amaaazing and the food is even better.
