i am going to nyc (manhattan/midtown)

Have you been before?

 

Get a pastrami and rye why you are there.

 

Midtown sucks, IMHO.

Add Guggenheim to your list.

9/11 memorial. Have to admit I got very emotional there. Previous to that visit the last time I was there I was at the restaurant at the top of the WTC having bloody marys and eating sushi. Was very surreal when I went back.

Go down to east village\greenwich\ area and walk, best part of NYC is walking around and exploring. Found some really cool stuff that way. Although a lot has changed since I was there last. From what I hear its much more cookie cutter these days.

Go to Lil Italy and get yelled at for mispronouncing Italian dishes by a crotchety old waiter. The food is worth it.

 

YO !! I'll be cruising thru mid-town on Friday.

Coming from Trenton to Penn Station and then have to walk to Grand Central.

 

smoked whitefish sandwich from one the Gods chosen peoples' deli

delish!

 

Take the North Jersey Coast Line south. Get off at Belmar. Shred 23's

 

I'd definitely say to to the Museum of Natural History...

 

I took a double decker tour through Harlem. Lots of black men mooned us...

 

Grab a slice of pizza. Grab a hot pretzel.

The nice thing about NY is you can just walk around and soak it all in. Washington square park is right by there.

The intrepid is cool if youre into aviation.

Street proforms.

MCSORELYS

Keep your phone charged. Use the train icon in google maps to easily figure out the subway.

Hit a cheap show. Pretend to go to the bathroom and chug some beers.

 

Surf jersey friday.

Avoid time square.

Go ice skating in time square... Just not at night cuz its a ****show.

Walking the village is whats up.

Hit up artichoke pizza on 14th

Eat hot dogs at greys papaya

Buy mets jerseys and give hi fives

Dont " see a show". Bad move unless its the south park mormon thing

Elmo in time square is not cute.. He is drunk and will fluffy hand fondle your daughter

Best bet is walk around ... Walk 5 miles til your feet hurt then find a funky local bar that isnt too bad for the kid and have a drink... Drink some six point resin or southern tier unearthly on tap

If u really have a death wish take the girl to the american doll store... Its everything u think it is

Side note... Stay in weehawkin nj at hotel overlooking nyc skyline then take water taxi to nyc

Oh yeah also go to mario batale eataly

I got a delivery guys # if all else fails... Edibles green u name it

 

Yo Retard, meet me up at the Blarney Stone Pub. It's on 8th Ave near 31st

Near Penn Station.....

I'll be there around 1:00 pm.

Bring some pills.

If I was a moron, I'd ax you to bring fireworks.

But I'm not a moron so I won't ax you to bring fireworks.

My pal Harris went to South Carolina the other week for some dude's wedding that used to live in our old NJ hood. Summerville or Summer something....

Of course being a moron, he bought fireworks on the way home.

He's 43 and is going to light firecrackers and bottle rockets.

Wow. Some people are just easily amused.

 

Gotta say thanks for the tips. My ole lady loves NYC as do all women I reckon. Southern women in particular for some reason. Wanted to get her up there as a B-day gift soon and this helped. Only thing I could come up with that I wanted to do was pose on Rockaway like Johnny Ramone with my old single fin and then hit a sesh in memoriam. OK to spit Beechnut up there without a cup? Cool to carry my old .45?

 

Don't carry, and be very careful where you puff

 

Man all youz got responses like you never leave the Joisey Town you reside...afeared of big city...bet

Bubz is over here recommending locales like a tourista organizer...Bubz how often do you leave Point dawg

 

I am happy to hear you are "family oriented" in your travels. Hopefully, you will have a great time. Make it an awesome trip for your daughter--she will honor you forever if you do!!!
Have fun, man....and don't do anything Riley suggests....fraught with danger.

 

o barry

 

If it is nice out, take a walk down the high line. They've converted an abandoned raised train rail into a pretty dope walking path down the west side of Manhattan... If it is too nice out it can get crazy crowded. Also, I always tell people who aren't very familiar with New York to do one of the circle line boat tours, it's touristy and seems cheesy, but it's a good, easy, and chill way to take in the whole city.

Oh, if you are here this weekend, there are a couple events to be aware of that you might want to check out or avoid: Saturday evening is the Halloween parade, it gets insanely crowded. And on Sunday there is the nyc marathon, which can also make it tricky to get places. Enjoy the big chitty!
