Doctuses 06.13.18	go to the Met Museum of Art. Their collection of art is one of the best in the entire world.
robertsona 06.13.18	Check ohmyrockness.com for concerts
ArsMoriendi 06.13.18	I'm from Long Island, but I've been there too many times to count Go to Lombardi's in Soho, it's the first Pizzeria ever.
theacademy 06.13.18	lotta hard disagrees with these from robertsona up there (blue bottle?? really???) but im also older and generally more jaded here's some general stuff: dont pay more than 1$ for a slice of pizza unless youre in brooklyn or queens take the staten island ferry (just do a round trip) central park is pretty sweet walk the brooklyn bridge luger's if you have the $ for momofuku 53rd and 6th halal food cart st. mark's place at night strand bookstore/rough trade/metrograph/angelika all dope
theacademy 06.13.18	definitely serious about the pizza thing tho^^^
ArsMoriendi 06.13.18	I second strand bookstore. The Body Exhibit is pretty neat for a 1 time go
robertsona 06.13.18	Shots fired! Yeah I generally don’t have a great handle on the Classics and have never been to Luger or anything...quick q, Does the 53rd and 6th halal cart have a name? There’s one right below union square park called “Farook’s“ I think that has a delicious lamb gyro and soda for 3.99, good option if you’re around there
robertsona 06.13.18	Oh fuck I accidentally deleted my comment. Well imho the four best museums are the Met, MoMA, Frick and Cloisters. Guggenheim and Whitney cool too but shitty student deals. Studio museum in Harlem also cool. Met Breuer worth a visit. Check out artnet.com/events/new-York if you’re interested in galleries (Free!!!!)
ArsMoriendi 06.13.18	Oh yeah make sure you get a pork bun from Chinatown Love those things, my Dad works in the city and he used to being them home sometimes when I was young. I wish I knew what place he went to...
theacademy 06.13.18	the halal guys... theyre "different" ok whats funny about it is that there are plenty of good halal trucks and im normally not one for waiting on a line for anything i dont have to (or building up something that may be a tad overhyped) but i happened to work nearby for a few years and it's just good street meat lol
robertsona 06.13.18	Ah I should have figured. Halal guys is def good product but I ate too much of it at one time and now it brings thoughts of illness. But it’s fun if you’re going to the MoMA anyways... I assert that Los tacos no 1 is essential though, especially if you have to be in Times Square (also a location in Chelsea market). Adobada taco with corn tortilla. Not exactly cheap but deeeelicious. I guess that’s all. Check screenslate.com if you like old movies (I swear it’s more fun than it sounds to see one of these). There I’ve posted the NYC resource trifecta of ohmyrockness (music), artnet (art), and screenslate (movies). Also wah fung no. 1 fast food in Chinatown—basically the best deal in the city IMO
theacademy 06.13.18	ashamed to say i don't have a go-to mexican place (always struggle, but i'm not including yuppie shit that rules hard like toloache) or chinatown place (never struggle, just dont have a go-to) if you have to visit times square (if it's your first time in manhattan, you definitely do) just walk around a bit and try to take in the sheer volume of electricity being used all around you...
Ryus 06.13.18	times square is fascinating as a tourist probably but as a manhattanite i hate it lol
Ryus 06.13.18	go to moma if youre into modern art!!
Ryus 06.13.18	"Los tacos no 1" yes that shit is excellent. also check out tacos morelos in the east village
Titan 06.14.18	Oh yeah make sure you get a pork bun from Chinatown [2] Chinese food from the legendary Wo Hop on Mott Street Museum Of Natural History A New York Yankees game Observation deck of the Empire State building Check the events at Madison Square Garden Concert at Jones Beach (might be a little far tho) 72nd Street & Central Park West (John Lennons apartment and location of death) Freedom Tower - One World Trade Center walk the brooklyn bridge [2]
Ryus 06.14.18	walk the highline!
tom79 06.14.18	Sweet thanks for the feedback guys. The Highline and the Strand bookstore are on my list and I'm gonna look into the other suggestions. I'm staying in the East Village so I'll definitely check out those food spots in the area.
