Default A week in NY, first time,

Sup CL

where the NYC people at !

I leave tonight at 8pm on what will be my first time ever visiting the big apple. I've been to many other states and countries but never NY.

I'll be visiting the NELOC crew for a week ! hopefully come back with a new mod lol
Already penciled in the may 27th VIP BBQ!


other than ground zero, statue of liberty, and the eiffel tower , any other places you recommend?

I would love to find a mom and pop food place thats among favorites of the locals!

I would visit the musuem of Modern Art. Also the Bronx Zoo if you have the time. If you're into spanish food there are a lot of nice places to eat uptown. Casa de Mofongo comes to mind but there are many more. At night i would go to Soho or the piers for drinks.

Default food place

You should go to this place called the Diner in Williamsburg, right outside manhattan. 85 Broadway
(between Berry St & Wythe Ave)
Brooklyn, NY 11211 Neighborhood: South Williamsburg

Awesome food, different menu everyday and you would never consider this place unless someone told you or took you there, looks like **** on the outside but the food is like some crazy upscale place out of this world.

also down the block is only the #1 steakhouse in NY called Peter Lugers. cash only be careful

Gotta spend a day in Central Park just strolling around. Also, almost any joint in Chinatown or Little Italy is going to be good. If they're not, they don't stay in business very long.
