It's the first Thursday of March which means you tipsters, readers and friends of Eater get the answer to your number one question: Where should I eat right now?

And rightfully so. When you're hungry, it's crunch time (literally, ha!) and you don't have hours to waste planning your next perfect meal. So we present the the new joints, the restaurants you want to be sure to know about, and places that got (or are getting) the critics and media all sorts of cray-cray. Yes, we said cray-cray -- don't pretend you never have.

We're meeting your needs with hearty plant-based grub at VSpot Cafe, southern-fried chic at Sissy's Southern Kitchen, dizzying doughnuts, Design District lunchables and some new cheffery.

Do leave suggestions, omissions and other vital life-enhancing tips in the comments. Or send them to us via the tipline. And watch for the next update the first Thursday of April.
