You'll be there for a short time, so you have to choose wisely.
All of the suggestions here are making me nostalgic (I used to
work very close to Pasteur's and spent many a lunch hour there).
There are so many ways to go about this. You have your own "must do" list, so don't miss those.
Here's my list of what to do while you're there:
Pasteur's and Empire State Building, easily done.
Lunch in Central Park
Katz's Deli 205 E. Houston
Walking around anywhere that you can.
Bonus visits:
C.O. Bigelow - Sixth Ave.near 9th St. - maybe the last classic old pharmacy in NYC. You can get their shaving and grooming products. Some other premium brands as well. Razors, brushes, fragrances. Your wife will enjoy it, too.
Russ & Daughters - 179 E. Houston for lox&bagels. You can eat and walk around. Here for breakfast and Katz's for lunch!
Yonah Schimmel - Also on E. Houston. Knish. Delish.
Classic steakhouse - Keene's, Smith & Wollensky, Sparks. Peter Luger in Brooklyn.
Have fun and report back!
