Great mid-eastern food in Chelsea/Flatiron/NoMad/whatever you call that area.

Get a piece of the south back with a chicken biscuit from Pies & Thighs.

Cute little French Café with beautiful croissants. Thanks for the reco, Kim!

Summertime in Bushwick, means the locals will be barbecuing on the sidewalk, and playing in the hydrants. It's the perfect time to grab some shorts, and run down the street. If the one outside Mckibben isnt going off, one of the other 15 hydrants in the neighborhood will be.

Fun bar to drink/dance. Great sound system and rotating roster of Dj's. Tends to get unbearably crowded on weekends so weeknights are the way to go.
