Holy crap! I forgot all about that!

This trip is going to give me ten more pounds of ass.

Happy to help. Also, McSorley's is a def fun stop if you like beer. Go in the day b/c the night is super packed. Julz always has good recs too. 

I also forgot to mention (you said your hubby liked food) is Katz (LES). It's popular but still delish and close to the New Museum and my two favorite cupcakes places: Sugar Sweet Sunshine and Butterlane. Other favorites nearby include Porchetta and Caracas for arepas. 

Have fun!

If you like Mac and Cheese you can check out SMAC- it's friggin delicious!

This is an afforable (fairly) hotel:

or just try expedia (or similar sites), anywhere in Midtown is great!

As for museums, my fave is the Met. You could walk up from in front of the plaza hotel- there is always a lot of 'stuff' going on out there- including things in front of the apple store and FAO.

As for taking subways- make sure to check the MTA website for weekend closures before you plan, or just check hopstop.com.

Don't forget the carriage ride through Central Park!

When are you going?  You could go ice skating in central park. Central park zoo.  Get tickets to the New York philharmonic - one of my favorite things. If you are going around the holidays, they have Handel's Messiah - you can't get any better for the holidays.   Definitely broadway - we recently went to Rock of Ages and it was awesome.  I second Katz for food.  Hit up a knicks or Rangers game. Top of the Rock is still cool, especially if you have never been and is romantic at night.  I am a huge fan of the Circle Line and bring everyone that comes to visit me, but I have never been in the winter.  Out of Cheslea Piers, they also have great dinner cruises that take you around the island, statute of liberty.  My Dad and I did this once and had a great time.  It would only be a short taxi froma midtown hotel.
