Nice and relaxed Italian spot to have lunch or dinner just around the corner of High Line park : http://www.thehighline.org/about/park-information. Great design and nice views on the park and the Standard Hotel. Make a reservation in the tab room under: http://www.opentable.com/colicchio-and-sons-tap-room?scpref=110
Fine dining is possible as well, but far more expensive.

This is the most creative place for kids in I have ever seen. Not only for bad weather! The museum moved to a new building between the village and Soho. It ish is wonderful and definately worth a visit for families with kids between 3 and 12. Bring a snack. Unfortunately the museum has not café.
