SPICE Thai restaurant - on University Drive just south of Union Square - excellent food and one of the cheapest places I ate in Manhattan.
The Statue of Liberty is closed (been closed since 9/11 - the yanks are so paranoid....) and I wouldn't recommend the 1 and a half hour wait to get through security just to go to the island when you can get a great view from the Statten Island ferry for nothing.
If you like live music check out Greenwich Village on Saturday night, same goes for Comedy Clubs - loads of 'em - check out the free guides in most hotels - usualy better than 'Time Out'
I'd agree the Helo trip is a must.
South Street Seaport is pretty cool too, especially if the weather's good enough to sit outside and sip a beer....

Theirs a "Gentlemens Lounge" on 5th Ave and 47th which looks god. I just got back on Thursday with the wife so i didn't go in but it looks like a laugh.
Liberty Helecopter trip is great. We done the 15 minute tour and it cost £61 each.
Theres a great Deli just up from the Roosevelt Hotel on Maddison Avenue called "The Metro" which is amazing.
Also, go to Strawberry Fields in Central park.
It's fecking cold there at the moment so wrap up warm.
