I've been eating burgers at the Corner Bistro for over 12 years...solid stuff, but try their fries. They cook them in the same oil as the bacon so there is a hint of bacon-y goodness in every bite.
Stay Authentic! The Black Sesame and Red Bean ice flavors will blow you away. Knicks fan? Add Jeremy Lin sprinkles. Read more at: http://bit.ly/UntappedCICF
John Pizzarelli is playing there for another month. It is a very small and nice place to eat and enjoy a jazz concert. Woody Allen plays there every Monday as well.
Another Magnolia, this time serving up delicious treats in Midtown. Everyone knows about the great cupcakes but if you haven't had it yet, try the banana pudding. Fantastic.
Favorite afternoon spot. Share sushi, chowder, pad thai, crepes or smoothies and then walk to the Highline. Perfection everytime. - Jake Manabat, Hunting Season
One of the most famous streets in NYC, this prestigious street is home to some of the world’s best shopping. This is a great ave to walk and explore but it’s especially beautiful during the holidays!

One of the Brooklyn new school of locavore-crazy, market-driven ingredients, Robert's is in many ways what happens when hipster chefs get it right.
The best old-school bakery in Greenpoint. The intoxicating aroma of sugar and coffee draws you in, and you can’t help but get a cup of joe and a french cruller for about $2.
There are 3 reasons to be here: 1) you're not from around here 2) you are forced to by employment 3) someone's holding a gun to your head
The bakery that began the cupcake craze is still the best. We suspect it’s the lick-your-fingers-to-get-the-last-bit-of-butter-cream frostings and fillings. They do a mean banana pudding too.

Obsessed: The Mean Grean, Acai bowl w/ almond butter, coffee-n-cacao, killer xx...can't go wrong.
I was only in this place for 20 minutes, but I want to go back. Great layout, retail up front, bar in middle and chill lounging in the back. They also serve food items. Extensive beer selection
This place continually serves quality espresso, delicious lattes, and has unique olive oil delicacies such as the olive oil cake.
East Village location where every meal is cheap and delicious. Always impressed. -Eric Wolitzky, Top Chef Just Desserts

Skip the cold press and order the Vietnamese coffee on tap. It's a whole other level of cafe goodness.

Fun spot for a drink and to catch a live band. Come here during happy hour for some cheap drinks and a good time.
10 cent wings, 15 cents if you want the honey wings, a nice big selection of craft beers. You may think 10 cent wings they must be tiny. Oh no, they are nice and juicy, go there and give em a try.
Don't bring a backpack if you're coming here for the free Friday..the coat room line takes longer than the ticket line! 20+min
If you want to be there around sunset, make sure you buy your tickets ~1 hour before. Unfortunately, the deck does not go through the west side, so cannot see the amazing colors directly.
The after-purchase service they provide is lovely even if not always free. Coloring books and creations to their palette on your arrival. A waiter brings sparkling water, coffee, and tea.

The scene from Gossip Girl's infamous Shepard wedding where Serena & Nate do their deed in Season 1 was filmed here. Great place and great atmosphere.
I lived in Italy and ate pizza all over the world. This is definitely one of the best. A must try!! Luca Brasi pizza for me is amazing.
Walk in, say what you're looking for, have the Bra Whisperer look at you for five seconds, take the bras she hands you, find they fit perfectly, pay, and walk out. Best bra shopping experience ever.
