Try the carts and street vendors. You have to try the chicken and rice or lamb and rice with extra tzakiki (white) sauce! It's sooo good. Oh wow, my mouth's actually watering right now..
I love NYC's chinese food. NYC is famous for it. There great little restaurants that look tiny but they are actually really big. They kinda look like deli's. They get really busy! At lunch time so get there early!!!!What are some must eat things in NYC?
Anything from Craft or the Momofuku Empire
How about some Brazilian food? While eating, you'll be entertained by live music.What are some must eat things in NYC?
eat more pizza again and again it's the best you won't find any great taste on the thick pizza but other food you will find at any place with same taste
Shake Shack burgers UWS and Madison Square park.

max brenner chocolate restaurant, manhattan



ok, max brenner is famous for its chocolate meals, they do serve actual dinner food but i suggest you dont get them. Instead, just try their chocolate specialties. Try their famous chocolate pizza! It might sound disgusting to some people (to me it kinda did) but when i tried it OMG! it was orgasmic! you need to try it! also, if you do decide to go there, do not order too many dishes at once. As good as chocolate may be, its not good if u had too much. Try 2 dishes or so at a time (depending how many people are with you)

What would you consider an appropriate NYC date?

I'm 24 years old and I've been unofficially dating a girl for about 2 weeks. It started off as a friendly relationship but started to pick up a bit, and I think we are almost ready to take the next step. We haven't been on a "real" date yet and I want to make it special. Please submit your suggestions including your favorite intimate restaurant, and after dinner activity.



Thanks!!What would you consider an appropriate NYC date?
I really like 'inoteca. It's an Italian wine bar and the staff is really knowledgeable as I tend to be nervous picking out a bottle myself. They have great small plates and brushcetta, so it's a good place to split. I've been to the one on 3rd in the Gramercy area, but they have a variety of different locations in the city.



Boqueria is also good. The tapas and sangria are great.What would you consider an appropriate NYC date?
The weather is nice so do something outside.



Walk across the Brooklyn bridge, eat at the River Cafe (high budget) or Grimaldi's pizza (low budget) right near the bridge, and take the water taxi back to the south street seaport for drinks.

Visiting NYC, any good organic restaurants in Manhattan for dinner?

I'm visiting NYC in about a week and I'm looking for organic restaurants for dinner. I'm staying near the empire state building so something in that area would be great or anywhere within 3-5 miles is fine. Thanks :)Visiting NYC, any good organic restaurants in Manhattan for dinner?
The Candle Cafe or Candle 79 - you can take the Third Avenue bus there and the Lexington Avenue bus back or take the subway. The food's very good.

Wrongful-discrimitory termination in Restaurant Business?

I began working at a fine dining restaurant approximately 2 weeks ago...gradually things would change as time went on...first, the original manager who hired me left after a couple of days. Another manager comes in to fill in form NYC, seems okay..tells me did they tell you that you will be a back waiter for the first week? I said no, but thought what the heck, I'll make some money. So, I work a double on a Friday, bust my rear end, MGR from NYC says you worked hard..but I don't get tipped? Then I learn you must work 3 days before you get tipped..hmmmm, I had allready done that. Then, I go in to work today, some 2 weeks hence..and the new GM, said let's talk...mind you, I hadn't worked wtih him yet...only saw him observer a few days back..looking bored...and looked at me funning when I said hello. He basically proceeds to tell me that I don't fit in here....Well, yes I guess I don't, because I'm intellegent, clean cut, well groomed, and speak English..Totally unfair..any recorse?Wrongful-discrimitory termination in Restaurant Business?
sounds like you have an attitude problem.
Don't even worry about it, you can get a job at virtually any restaurant, anytime. Just move ahead. Good luck.Wrongful-discrimitory termination in Restaurant Business?
See a labor lawyer.
What exactly are you going to sue for? Because they don't like the way you worked and can fire you during the (usually 30 day) trial period. I do suggest that if you are so intelligent then you find something that more suits your needs instead of a job that according to you, doesn't require any intellegnce at all.Wrongful-discrimitory termination in Restaurant Business?
So you want to be an actor and you are also trying to sue your BBQ host because you tripped on his property. Now you can't even cut the waiter profession? You'll probably end up on Judge Judy next.

    McCarren Park Pool Williamsburg, Northside, Brooklyn, NY.



    I visited NY in the summer for almost 2 weeks. I stayed with a friend in Brooklyn and he couldn't wait to take me and another friend to McCarren Park Pool.

    It was July and about 200 degrees in Brooklyn...kind of chilly if you ask me. Actually waiting in line and listening to my skin sizzle was a lot of fun. So many different types of people were showing up and braving the sun and it's damaging effects to hear a free concert,

    And come on, Matt%26amp;Kim, The Whip AND the Breeders all in one show[for FREEFREEFREE]...yeah!! They have some TOPSHOP giveaways going on too.

    ur 19... dont expect to be able to get into anywhere good.NYC restaurants/clubs for my 19th bday?
    You are not going to find any restaurants similar to the Russian restaurants in Brooklyn. Those Russian restaurants like Rasputin, National, etc. are known to perform dinner shows.



    I haven't seen any restaurant like those in Manhattan which will combine live music, dancing, show and dining.NYC restaurants/clubs for my 19th bday?

    How much money should I take to NYC w/me?

    I plan on going next summer for about a week. I won't do much shopping(if any), or eating in fancy restaurants, or any restaurants much, honestly. I'll probably do alot of sightseeing, window shopping, and eating at places like subway or small diners haha. Not including the plane ticket or the sleeping arrangements, how much should I bring?

    Thanks!How much money should I take to NYC w/me?
    Seriously, in this day and age who even thinks about how much money to take along on any trip?. Bring about $100, and your ATM card!



    There's at least one ATM (and usually three or four) on pretty much any block in NYC. Money's there when you need it, there's no reason to travel with a bunch of cash.
    Well you don't seem to be planning on spending any of it so 100 dollars a day should be just enough emergency cash for you. $700How much money should I take to NYC w/me?
    A 7-day unlimited Metrocard is around $25.



    $200 should be enough to eat 3 nice meals a day for a week.
    700+How much money should I take to NYC w/me?
    $1000 or so should cover it.
